This past weekend, my family traveled to Fresno where my daughter and granddaughters live. It is not my favorite place to travel as it is a long car ride on a good day (about 5 hours). And in the summer, it is hot. Fresno did not disappoint when it comes to summer weather.. It was in the 90s when we drove in and 102 on Saturday - ugh. People tend to say that dry heat isn't as bad, but let's face it - HOT is HOT!!
But enough of that - once settled in, we were able to enjoy some family time. I loved having extra time with my two boys (who are really adults!), my DIL and my adorable grandson. He entertained all of us with his dancing and chattering and toddler antics the whole time. It was great fun.
Saturday was the day of the wedding and all went well. I don't think I have ever seen my daughter happier, and I hope that stays with her the rest of her life. Her daughters love her new husband, and his daughters love Missy. Seems to be a beautiful blended family. What more could I hope for - right?
Her colors were gray with purple accents, so I used that inspiration to design her wedding card. I wanted it to be simple and elegant and think I achieved that. I used a beautiful image from Power Poppy ( LOVE her floral designs) and foiled it in purple. The foiling is so difficult to capture, but hopefully with the different angles you can see how pretty it was. I was thrilled to see how all of the detail was enhanced by the foil.
A perfect example of how difficult it is to capture the color and shimmer
of the foil. But also a good way to see the detail of the digi image.
It is beautiful in its simplicity.
A little better capture of the foiling. Now you can see why I love it.
It just brought the image to life.
The sentiment is from Anna Griffin, stamped on Gina K Heat Resistant acetate
and heat embossed.
I wish them a very HAPPY life.....
