For You :)

You'll see here some of the photos I sent you on my letter, as well as some others from my trips to different places :)

After a day @ the gym I decided to have my hair cut. Not happy with the results, I cut it a little shorter. It looked good until it grew again.

Next appointment is 12/15 which will make it shorter like this again.

Our summer was spent picking fruit with E @ the farm closer to where we live. It was fun and she really enjoyed it!

Gary and I at the beach closer to home in one of his days home.

I took a trip to the first Seventh-Day Adventist church in Washington, NH. Beautiful day spent in nature, solitude and silence.

Pretending to be 'The Girl with NO dragon Tattoo'- just being bored at taking photos of trees and leaves...

The process to make our Christmas cards... LOL

Very depressing NH...

Wedding Box

As you remember, I was working on this project for my friends who got married a few weeks ago. Actually, I think they got married a month ago. I had finished most of the couple's parts, but was still busy working on the cake. The two-tiered cake was too small and completely out of proportion, so after showing it to my mom/dad, they advised me to add one more tier to make it a little even with the height of the couple.

This was my first idea for the card I was creating:

It was supposed to be on hard cardboard, and then I would make it into something like a frame... but when I weighted the cake&couple it was WAY too heavy for a card.

I decided then, I would make it into a box:

The idea started working pretty well, so I went along with creating the box and buying all the needed material for it. I made quite few mistakes with box #1, so I had to do it all over again. I was lucky none of the foam stuff broke, but it was a pain ...

This is the box cover:

Here are the details on the sides (all around is the same)

and the front:

(C&E are the initials of this couple)

Now that I published it in here I've seen some mistakes I need to fix, but for all those of you whom I've told you about the box, this is what it looks like and I hope you like it.
