    Help !

    I NEED inspiration !!!

    I have been asked by my friend to do a book/album of her wedding, and as I am not a very experienced scrapper, I

    1) don't know where to start in terms of LO's etc.
    2) I haven't got any wedding embellishments/papers etc

    So any help that anyone can give me would be REALLY appreciated !!!!

    what about using the HOTP wedding stuff in 8x8...the size isnt as scary and you can get the album, cardstock, papers and embellies that all match

    I'm just doing a little booklet for my OH and I'm using a DCWV Scrapbook Kit in a Stack 8x8 pad to do it with. It's like this one http://cgi.ebay.com/8-x-8-DCWV-SCRAP...QQcmdZViewItem (to show you what it looks like) and it's not something I ever would have bought for myself, I won it in a prize. But it's making my job so easy, It's keeping a theme going through the book, without me searching for papers every five seconds. I'm sure DCWV do a wedding stack as well, which might make your job easier? HTH's

    Maybe a good starting point would be to see if the wedding had any colour theme? You could choose some co-ordinating papers in that family of colours.
    Did she have any hearts, or particular shapes, or music, or instruments are special features that you could adapt and use?

    yeah! I forgot about DCWV! I think they do the wedding stack in 12x12, 8x8 and 6x6

    The HOTP Wedding stuff in 8x8 is really nice - my friend has done her daughters wedding using it and is so pleased with the result - she is very new to scrapping and couldn't believe how well it has turned out for her.

    I would direct you towards Rakscrap.com and the wedded bliss challenge.
    Each part of the album has its own sections with quotes and ideas to help you out.
    Ignore the section about divorce December is strange! (Its alright I tell her that frequently LOL)
    Hope that helps.
