Father's Day Gift Set

Paper covered frame with twine and shell embellishments & matching "Tie Card"

The picture is one of my dad's favorites--Surfer Dad with his Surfer Boys. I'll have to get one with his Surfer Girls in it too!

The top 3 shells represent my brothers, the bottom 2 shells represent my sister and me, & the twine is the infinity symbol.

Such a fun card to make :)

Shabby Chic Bridal Shower: A Little Bitty Peek

My little sister is getting married! As the Matron of Honor, I am so excited to co-host a Bridal Shower for my beautiful sister, Chelsea. The shower is Shabby Chic themed, which is a favorite of mine, so I have been having so much fun crafting the many details for this shower. This is the first Bridal Shower I have ever hosted and I want it to be special. There are many paper elements in the crafts, but many of the projects include paper along with other materials such as fabric, twine, and ribbon. The shower is this Saturday, the 9th, and I will be very busy these next couple of days finishing the final touches. Below are a few photos I took using my Retro Camera app. on my phone. However, I will be posting professional photos of the event shot by J.LYN iconography.

Mason Jar Centerpieces
The paper element in the centerpieces is hard to see in this picture, but there is a paper doily wrapped around each jar. The adorable, fabric flowers were made by LONDYNroads
