I have the lucky privilege of having two daughters who are getting married within a year of each other. So for their wedding gift from me, I am hoping to make them both a wedding scrapbook. (And if they are reading this, I'll know because I have mom eyes in the back of my head).

I am going with a white on white classic look for the first scrapbook and a blue and silver theme for the second one to match the colors of the second wedding.

The first wedding was at the Venetian in Vegas, so I have many awesome photos of the wedding in that very unique environment. Right now I am gathering Italy memorabilia such as anything with a gondola theme, the tower of Pisa, masks, glasswork, and other distinctively Italian things.

I've found the perfect scrapbook for it over at Wal-Mart and may have to raid their day after Thanksgiving sale. Wouldn't you know I spotted it right as I was about to go on a 600 mile trip, and I sure didn't want to cart it around with me.

I want to give both of them their scrapbooks at the same time, and my second daughter postponed her wedding until May. Because that wedding theme is still in flux, I won't be able to do much on it until I know for sure where she is having it. I think she is going to have it on an apple farm, so that should be interesting. But she's changed her mind three times now so stay-tuned.

When I get both books together, I will share the finished look here on this hub. But for now, I thought it would be fun for everyone else to enjoy the project along with me.

I will be using a combination of rubber-stamping, beadwork, handmade papers, calligraphy and drawing, and of course, photographs. I'm really looking forward to it.

For now, I'll share some photos of the wedding that's already happened.
