********************************************

Now, onto my latest creation.  I haven't done many crafts lately, but I was invited to a bridal shower the other day and had to come up with something.  I went to Target to do the gift registry thing, but the machines were out of order!  

So the day of the bridal shower I realized I still didn't have a gift.  That's when an idea came to mind!  Here is what I came up with:

Cute, huh?  This couple is so dang adorable!  She loved this.  

Does the monogram look familiar?  I got it off Groupdealz.  It was perfect for this gift!  Then I cut out the couples names and marriage date with my Cricut machine.

This was so simple to make!  I used a 2 x 6 piece of wood, scrapbook paper, modpodge and ribbon! I also stained the wood before I put the scrapbook paper on. The picture is from the couple's wedding announcement. 

It probably cost me about $5!  What a great price for a wedding gift:)

Don't you think we should have bridal showers every 10 years after we are married?  I need some new stuff!

I love personalized gifts....don't you?  

Have a fantastic weekend!
