Spring and Wedding Fever is in the air

Spring is here in the Southern Hemisphere and Wedding fever is in the air. What better way to celebrate this season by making a Wedding Present to give to the lovely couple. The gorgeous couple who kindly lent me their Wedding photos to use is my cousin Sarah and her husband David.

I designed this project as part of 

Spellbinder's International Explore Beyond

The base is made using a coffee bottle that I wrapped in a strip of Designer Paper from Kaisercraft Pink Paislee Butterfly Garden range called Flower Blooms. The circles surrounding each photo was cut using Spellbinders Nestabilites Decorative Elements Stately Circles S4-388 

The top was covered in the smallest of Spellbinders Grand Nestabilites - Grand Decorative Circles One LF-015. Butterflies were made from Spellbinders Grand Shapabilities by Donna Salazar Wonderful Wings LF-006. Pearls by Want2Scrap and Kaisercraft. I used skewers wrapped in dotted ribbon to hold the photos.

Lace is from Green Tara.

Flowers were made with Spellbinders by Donna Salazar Bitty Blossoms S5-086 and edged with Tsukineko Memento Rich Cocoa Me-000-800 and Desert Sand Me-000-804.

The edge of the bottom and top of the Photo Vase was made with Spellbinders Shapeabilities Persian Accents S5-078 which I folded in a concertina fashion. I used 3 lengths for the top and 3 for the bottom and joined together most pieces using a  hot glue gun and Xyron
