One of my friends is off on a cruise ship to get married today! I wish I could be with her to share in her special day, but, unfortunately, it's an incredibly busy time at work and there was no way I could go. She had asked me to make her a sign/flag that she could use in her pictures. I didn't really have any requirements besides it needed to have the word "yay" on it.
So here's what I came up with for her.....
I used poster board as my base. I cut two triangles and covered both in the hot pink fabric (her colors are hot pink, orange, and green). Each side got orange rick-rack ribbon around the edges. I then made a little pocket with some leftover fabric which allows the stick (wrapped in orange ribbon) to slide in and out. That way, she can pack it easily in her suitcase.
I used my cricut to cut out the yay! in vinyl. It was easy to put on and she can remove it if she just wants it for decoration.
Em, I know you'll be a stunning bride! I can't wait to see all the pictures and celebrate when you get home! Congratulations and here's to many many happy years!
I did this one for the wedding reception we attended on Saturday. Wanna know what's crazy? They had the SAME sign leaning on an easel at the gift table! Granted, it wasn't in vinyl (it was painted) and it was green, but it was the same thing! Mine was loads better. ha!
I love the look of the black and white with the small splash of color at the bottom. I tried to keep it so it was gender neutral. As much as I wanted to add pink, I didn't! So proud of myself! Quick deets...I used True Black Ink on Stampers Select White and used one of the fun stamps from Vintage Labels. The bottom is Aqua Mist and they're tied together with True Black Saddle Stitch ribbon.
