My wedding shoes are green. Originally, I wanted these in red... Pomposo from Stuart Weitzman - I just love the flower on it! NO CHANCE... unfortunately out of stock:-( Than we stumble upon SW brick store in Denver & Darren actually dragged me there to ask about the shoes & guess what... the white ones can be colored into any color I want, even into green if I want to. WOW! But, white ones were out of stock as well, at least in my size:-( So, I ended up with these... designing my own shoes - in my own color, style, & size of the heel. How AWESOME is that??? The color is just perfect & the good news is that I payed a lot less than what I would have pay for the SW. And, they are so comfortable! I can't wait to wear them at my wedding.
I used the same updated paper with ladybugs from previous wrapping style just the tying is different. The paper-cups stayed and I just added an artificial poppy flower to it and a green vintage ribbon that I found in one of my moms 'treasure' boxes. Just to let you know... I don't usually go through my mother's stuff... I am just cleaning up the basement and I already found vintage glass buttons, a lot of cool ribbons, and much more useful stuff that I am gonna use later for my projects. So, it is definitely worth to clean the house or the basement in this case:)
Tak toto sú naše svadobné pozvánky. Teraz Vám ich konečne možem ukázať kedže každý pozvaný obdržal tú svoju. Sú vyrobené z recyklovaného papiera (paper-source a farber-castle), zabalené vo floristickej textílii a pekne uložené v krabičke tiez od paper source. Základ bol krabička, zvyšok prišiel postupne. Každý kto dostal pozvánku osobne sa vypytoval či je to čokoláda! Ale bohužial bol to len papier a pár plastových perličiek. Dokonca moj strýko ma naťahoval či mu nesiem bombu. Vytvotiť každú pozvánku ručne bol boj... stálo ma to veľa nervov a veľa papieru bolo skonzumovaného (recyklovaného), ale na druhej strane to všetko stálo za to vytvoriť niečo originálneho.
It's not even the present that gives me the excitement as it is the packing. Wrapping a present gives me so much pleasure! This one especially... I crumpled the paper in my hands couple times to give it a rustic tone... I love old looks. Muffin paper cups & the black praline cups are holding together by a green fabric button that is attached to the updated green wrapping paper with ladybug detail. Voala & the present is ready to be given!
Well, the anniversary is not today but soon it will happen... in 6 days and I rather do this in advance because last time I forgot my 1st year celebration completely. When I am thinking about it I should have put 2 candles on the cake... I guess next time:) This time I want to celebrate it with a little giveaway....

We have a lot of goodies here... couple papers from Paper-Source, origami paper, blank cards, ribbons, feathers (even from my parrots), glass markers, little artificial roses, some glitter, tags, and much more.
