The wedding program I made for us is very simple, just an 8.5 x 11 inch sheet printed on both sides and folded in half. For the cover I made a rubber stamp carving inspired by one of the stained glass windows in the church. I picked this window because it's located where Tom and I usually sit and it has an anchor in it that goes with my theme!
Here is a screenshot of the web site I made for our wedding. The flag and kayak paddle images were made by hand carving rubber stamps, printing them out, then scanning them and using Photoshop to manipulate the images and combine with other collage work and found textures. Some of the products I used in the collage portion are decorative papers from Canvas Corp and stickers from Tim Holz. @CanvasCorp,@CanvasCorp1,#canvascorp,#canvascorpbrands,#ccbcrew,#7gypsies

This photo shows a couple more of the flower sprays in use. I made them with similar colors but mixed the silk flower varieties and foliage. This is partly to save money by using upcycled silk flowers from Leftovers, etc. and partly because I prefer things not to be too matchy-matchy as they say. Groom's parents are at the lower left.
Here is one of the twelve flower sprays I made.
In progress: sprays of silk flowers for the ends of pews.

Here you can see some of the finished wedding jewelry being worn by me and Matron of Honor Laura Cibulka.
Here are some parts I'm working on for my necklace and earrings.
This picture is from the December 1997 issue of Bead and Button Magazine. I thought over the years if I ever get married I want to make myself a necklace and earring set like this. Well, I am finally getting married and this style would look good with my dress so I am making them!

Here I am with Kate Fournier who made my dress. Take a bow Kate!
Here is how the dress turned out! It was made by Kate Fournier, as was Tom's tie and pocket square. I made the veil from parts of my Mom's veil and new tulle fabric. I also made the lapel flowers, my bouquet, and my jewelry. The tie fabric, dress fabric, veil fabric and most of the flowers for my bouquet were from JoAnn Fabrics and Crafts. #handmadewithjoann

I made this shadow box from an old drawer for our wedding reception and to display in our home later. Here is how I made it - http://schnarrsblog.com/make-a-shadow-box-from-an-old-drawer/
My husband and I made this for our nautical themed wedding reception which was a picnic by a lake.
