The Broken Road

This song was the theme for our wedding, printed in our invitations and also our last dance. While our guests walked downtown from the church to the hotel reception, we took a carriage ride through the battlefields and took a few pictures. I had to have one of us on the road for this layout. I was scared to do these pages, I wanted them to live up to all the emotion I feel when I hear the song. I thought it would have a more sentimental look, but once I got started, it turned out kind of fun and funky. The tree was my inspiration. I made it with my cricut. Then, I added the fence (cricut) and grass (K&Co borders). I used papers and chipboard from the Die Cuts With a View Animal Crackers and The Green Stack lines. The title is my first try at mixing fonts, colors and stickers/thickers! I really love how it turned out. Thanks for looking.




Leave a comment on this post and your email address and I will RAK one person with a few of these fall trees. I just love them!
