UNDER CONSTRUCTION JOBBIE .. .. FINISHED !!

Hi Everyone

Well I am pleased to say that the beginnings of the card I shared yesterday is now finished .. .. I hope you feel it was worth waiting for!!!  LOL!!!




This used:

Image:  Stampendous! "P091" Beaded Bodice
Sentiment:  Pink Petticoat
Backing Paper:  DCWV "Nana's Nursery "Baby Boy"
Ranger Liquid Pearls:  Mint Green
Crystal Stickles
My Trusty Sewing Machine
ProMarkers
Woodware Punch:  Tag
Lace, Cord, Flowers, Pearls, Eyelets and Feathers .. .. all from the Stash Box


Another one of my weddings came to a close today :-(

I find I get quite close to the happy couples, as we seem to share so much enroute, and it is quite sad to say goodbye when everything is finally complete.  Though I guess if I ever come across a "bridezilla" I won't feel quite the same LOL!!!

I also saw another side to what I do today as my happy couple arrived early .. .. .. with the bride apologising and saying "I'm sorry we are early .. .. but I just couldn't wait any longer to see everything".  
Bless her, by the time she actually saw everything sitting ready for her she cried!

People do sometimes get upset .. .. either when they see their samples with their names and everything on ready for signing off .. .. .. or when they see lots of their finished stationery all lined up .. .. ..  but I never considered the excitement of waiting to pick them up.  But I will now!!  

So on that note .. .. I had better go and work on making another bride happy!!!

I hope you all have a great Friday evening and a lovely weekend.

Love

  26. Stunning card, Jules. Love the perfect pearls on the bodice and the colours are fab. Who would have thought that you would find the paper to match that stamp in the nursery :)

    It must make all those hours of preparation seem very worthwhile when the bride reacts that way ... your just spreading happiness as you go :)

  31. Oh Jules this is truly stunning! I just love those colors. And that image is fabulous!
    My DD works at a print shop and claims you can’t please a bride. I don’t think she has the right personality for it. She has refused to work with a bride since ‘the bridezilla from hell’ not only threw a fit but solid objects. I think if someone threw a stapler at me I’d be put off too. LOL!
