The bride....

Its nothing like capturing the beauty of a bride on her wedding day! I had the honor of doing just that!

It was my dear friend Shanetta's wedding day and I had not bought a gift!! I was in Hobby Lobby looking around for the perfect gift for her and ran into very nice things.

I found the His and Her pillows an though those were really nice but it just was not personal enough. I mean I had her wedding invite in my hand and said. "Aha! I can make her a bridal canvas! She has seen my canvases and had already expressed that she loved them and wanted to order one after the wedding. So this would be perfect!

Her wedding colors were coral and cream and since I was already in Hobby Lobby I did a U Turn and grabbed some flowers and feathers from the floral section and some jewelry findings from the jewelry section. Then I ran to Michaels and grabbed a couple of coral Prima flowers and some wedding sentiment stickers and rushed home to whip this canvas together in 4 hours!!!

She was so happy when she received it.  I had to share the video!

Here is me and the bride. Isn't she lovely?? Of course she is!!! Shanetta's response. "This young lady, Ms. Tam is very talented. I’m sure that I have asked her several times, what is in your hand referring to Ex 4:2; when God asked Moses, what is that in your hand? Tam, everything that you need to continue your success is right in front of you.Truly, anything that she sets her mind to do, count it done with professionalism. She adds her personal touch focusing on all the details with every bead, lace, or jewelry placed on the canvas. This beautiful piece was presented to me on my wedding day. She asked several times if I was ready to open the box and every response was yes, I’m ready. Well so I thought that I was. However, when I did, I certainly did not expect this work of art to bring me to tears but it did!!! I LOVE IT!!!" List of things I used: Lindy Stamp Gang Sprays

Birthday Hanna on the Go!!

Happy Birthday Ms. Sandra!!! I just had to take the time to make this birthday card for the COO at my job!!! This Hanna looks just like her and believe me, she is always on the go... I used Jolees to compliment the card with happy birthday, birthday cake, presents and balloons stickers. I love the Nana card stock it is so colorful and so much fun to use. I thought that the Nana matstack could only be use for children projects. Boy was I wrong. The pages in this matstack all seem to compliment each other. I used stickles lime to outline and bring out her outfit.
It was fun and fast to do. Maybe because I am getting a little better :=) She loved it so much that she showed it to everyone that she had meetings with. Wow, I had no idea that it would be on display!!!
