Booked my first dress shopping appointment
PortlandBride in Planning, on June 21, 2010 at 5:09 PM

PortlandBride in Planning, on June 18, 2010 at 1:35 AM

Peacock Feather Pen - Too Cheesy?
PortlandBride in Planning, on May 20, 2010 at 8:26 PM

I was thinking of making up a couple of these for the guest book signing (or at least guest book equivalent). But I am not sure if they are too cheesy/tacky?

My DIY Invitations - Thoughts?
PortlandBride in Planning, on May 15, 2010 at 4:07 PM

I still have some trimming to do, this is just a prototype, and I need to find a better glue to use, but hopefully you get the idea. The ribbon on the second sheet forms a pocket for my inserts.
