Recently I downloaded the craftgawker application (craftgawker.com) to my phone to find so many amazing ideas for crafts for the wedding and life in general. Our goal is to make everything handmade/homemade for the wedding that is physically possible to add our personal touch and to make our day memorable.
This first project was a small task that turned awkward almost immediately however I managed to cut out and complete over 200 of these last night. I'll call them the Heart Memos to be tied delicately around our Save The Dates. (that DYI will come next week or so)
What you will need:
• A book you can reuse, preferably one falling apart or in our case we purchased from an estate sale
•Glue Stick
•Medium heart die cutter
•Cardstock color paper to match colors
•1/16th inch hole punch
•scissors
Approximately 1 hour to complete
First you want to go through the book you have chosen and find words or phrases pertaining to you, your fiancé, or your wedding. In our case we used a dictionary and found all the words that make us and our families. Use extreme caution if using a dictionary! Always look both ways like your mama taught you and here is an example as to why!
I wanted the word laughter but it appears that an extremely inappropriate word was so very close!
General Scrapbook Paper
Martha Stewart Die Cut
We will be using hemp twine to position these around our Save The Dates!
Lots of Love,
J & R
