A Dress of your Legacy

This is a layout I created for For The Luv of Art.  This is my first month creating for them and I'm loving it!  Such a great team and such a sense of community on the boards.  If you haven't already checked it out, you must!  You'll get hooked....just like I did!

I created this with a photo from my daughters wedding.  She was married this past New Years Eve.  One of the things she definitely wanted at her wedding was a display of my wedding dress, which also happened to me my mother's dress.  Yes, I wore my mom's wedding dress.  So we had a display of the dress along with a table that had photo albums from her grandmothers wedding and our wedding.  I have to say it was so cool to have that there for the guests to see.  I am so glad we did that because the guests absolutely loved it!

I loved this kraft envelope!  I decided I wanted to use it for a journaling pocket.

So I slit the end of the envelope and used these great journaling cards
