WOW!! I feel like I have been absent for a really long time and it really hasn't been that long. This past weekend was a blast with launching parties and beginner parties going on back to back and everywhere. I think I have eaten more food in one weekend then I have in the last 90 days and it was fun!
I'm just going to share a few photos of a Mini Album with matching Card I created for a co-worker with a last moment's notice. I think it turned out okay although I didn't have enough time to really coordinate the inside and add all the embellishments I would have liked. I had to use what I had on hand and not be real concerned about using different techniques and all.
Oh well let me go ahead and share already and give you a chance to leave your comments.
I think I'll share the card first because I actually do like the look and feel of it.
The embossing on the paper is very elegant and is more of an eggshell white or wicker white. I'm not real sure what the manufacturer called it.
I simply added pearls, velvet ribbon with lace, and flowers from Wild Orchids to finish the front.
The inside has designer paper with no greeting so that there would be lots of room for other co-workers to write their congratulations message.
Oh did I mention this was for a young co-worker that is getting married within a week.
Next is the last minute mini album and since I didn't have actual wedding paper I used three words that I truly believe that if incorporated in every marriage there would be less divorces in the world.
Again I used the same embellishments to match the card and to keep it simple so that the beauty of the embossed paper would not get lost. The paper actually has a smooth and soft feel to it which promotes the feel of a wedding.
Okay that's all I have for tonight. Feel free to leave your comments below and I'll be back next week to announce the winners of Group A and Group B of my blog candy/giveaway.

Lesia these are gorgeous - love that textured/pearlised paper, it is beautiful. Sometimes I think that 'simple' ends up being just as pretty as 'embellished and co-ordinated', both have their appeal. :-)

Leisa - Everything is gorgeous! I need to find that embossed paper - it is so elegant. I love how you coordinated the book and the card. I'm all for simple designs (everything else takes me so long to finish - LOL). Thanks for sharing.
Wowzers, these are gorgeous!
Your projects are beautiful, but then I would not expect less from you.
Very elegant and beautiful creations!
Drooling.....LOVELY!
