Just finished making Guest Book - *Flash*

I love it.

So good to see something thats not the usual pink or flowery. Not one for the girly stuff myself so I really like your design.

Thanks. I chose the peacock feather idea as there are peacock feathers in the hair extensions i'll be wearing on the day

....my next venture tonight is to do the front of the wedding album, then these two pieces can go into storage until May

.....Also just finished the cover for the wedding album:

And here's the Guest Book and the Album together

They look really good - I like the design you've done.

(very impressed that you've attempted this - anything I make looks like a 5 year old got involved!)

They are lovely, although i am biased as we are using peacock feathers. Did you print that image yourself and stick it on the front, its brilliant quality?

Aw its lovely and it incorporates the colour of your hair extensions!

I am finding your planning very intruging (sp?) miss.understood!

Vikster79 - yeah i printed them myself. I found the image after trawling through internet pages and eventually finding that one, then had to slightly alter it and crop it down to remove some of the more muddy colours around the outside edge.

It takes a lot of ink to print them out, but i think it's worth it. Good job i ha a new colour cartridge as the other one was nearly dead lol. Just got the invite images to print out (same image) although the printer had a 4 hour hissy fit last night with me.....4 hours for it to decide whether it was a good idea to switch off or not lol. xx

I look forward to showing you all the finished stationary. I've got all the wording etc for the stationary worked out, just need the printer to co-operate! xx

Oooooh I really like these! Hope I can be so creative x

Brilliant I can't wait to take a peek!!

I have a horrible feeling i'm so interested as I like the personal element of your wedding and how it's clearly all about you and your H2b - something i've perhaps not quiet achieved yet!

..give it plenty thought and you'll get there. xx

I really hope so!

Where did you buy the guest book......that's a bargain price!

Looks great as well!! I'm attempting wedding invites soon so that should be fun!!

I bought it from Amazon. I just searched A5 black sketch book. As an artist myself...my top tip for paper: for decent quality paper, try searching for sketch books. The paper used in them is thicker and of a higher quality than standard paper. Also what i did because there were loads of pages in this book.... i used double sided tape (after punching out the heart shape and putting the peacock blue on the back of the punched bit - just do every other sheet with the punch) and taped 1 punched sheet and 1 normal sheet together. It means the paper is thicker and more durable (ideal for drunken fingers to flip to a page) and makes the quality feel even better
