After almost four years of marriage, I finally managed to get a wedding album done. I'm sort of amazed at myself that I managed to do it after all this time, but that's what crops are for, eh? It's a labor of love. It took me two full days at a weekend crop (so we're talking looooooooooong days of sitting and working). I hope you like it.
The book is layers and layers of paint. I even painted every single word of journaling (man, that took forever to do). I stitched flowers into the page protectors to create the flower pages and the rest is rhinestones, and pretty little baubles. I don't think that these photos do the album justice at all. It's so much more in person. But maybe that's because the story is so much more to me. I actually cried — at the crop — while I was writing one particular story down. How ridiculous is that? But I'm delighted to finally have my wedding story down.
Thanks for stopping by!
That is the most beautiful wedding album I ever saw. Still not done with mine- LOL. Thanks for oozes of inspiration! Can’t wait to see you soon 🙂

Oh, Julie, what a beautiful, beautiful wedding story! I just LOVE your colorful wedding book! I have been married for 10 years now, and I still haven’t done anything with my wedding pictures. I am ashamed to admit that they’re still crammed in one of my drawers!
Your wedding book is GORGEOUS, and your hubby is very blessed to have married someone as WONDERFUL as you!
Thanks for the inspiration, and thanks for making us happy with your colorful blog. Truth be said, you’re the “darling” of the scrapbooking world!

What a wonderful creation to cherish for years to come Julie. I especially love that it’s so different from a “traditional” wedding scrappy album.

Love all the layers and love even more so the journaling! How it winds its way through each page in its big dark lettering looks really great. I can’t believe how much work you got done in just two days! Fabulous!

Julie, I just love how the pages feel so “alive”. They made me feel like I am actualy at your wedding. It is an awesome album. You must be a really fast worker because there is no way I could have finished that album in two days. It makes me feel like redoing my album, which feels so static. Thanks again for your inspiration.

I LOVE that this is an untraditional wedding album. I’ve had so much trouble making mine because the formal look isn’t my style, and that’s what most of the wedding stuff is! Thanks for the inspiration!

There is so much to love about your gorgeous album but my favorite thing is the movement created by the shapes in your journaling blocks. It really conveys the intensity of emotion and whirlwind nature of a wedding. Just gorgeous!! Thanks so much for sharing it with us. I have yet to finish mine as well and we’re coming up on our 1 year anniversary!
