LOVE!

Here is the second layout using the delightful Wandering Ivy papers from Kaisercraft, for the Papermaze Design Team Blog. I have chosen another photo from Emily's autumn wedding. This time Jack is carrying her through the orchard at the Night Yard.

Please go over to the Scrap, Paper Scissors blog for details of the materials I used and the links to the shop.

I used many of the same dies cardstock and elements used for the first layout 'Today We Were Married'. This time I did some heat embossing with some UTEE.

I will be using these papers and elements again to make more layouts for Emily and Jack's wedding album.

Thanks for looking.
