A bride's simple request....

Yes, I want a sword to pose with as the ultimate bride who doesn't put up with anything. I don't think anyone will cross me if I am carrying around a deadly weapon. Another Kill Bill poster like this with just the image of the sword is a gift from my Dingo for our wedding day! Can't wait to get it on the wall as inspiration!

Mimi's Save the Date Cards

The finished product!

These were the "tools" we used to create the cards. Postcards and envelopes are from PaperSource, the seal wax is from waxseals and the graphics we just got from a friend's computer. The super neat part is the sticker to use on guests calendars to help them save the date! We produced those from a polaraid sticker printer and cutting them in half and placing them on the postcard with album corners.

A sketch of your wedding gown

For those brides whose wedding took place some time ago, hint to your husband how much you loved your dress and had a keepsake of it. Maybe send him to MyDreamLines to have them sketch an an exact replica of your gown. Pretty good keepsake that keeps it simple.
