    I have to agree about hand written letters, we should do that more often! This palette is beautiful, love the blush pink as an accent! Next time my husband wears his AF blues, I need to find a pink ruffled dress like that :)

    This is gorgeous, Chris. I think I especially love it because of the A in the lower left corner. Go figure.

    love that lace heart garland! Do you think it could be made using lace ribbon and fabric stiffening spray?

    oops - nix my question! I just visited the link you provided and saw that you can indeed make the garland with stiffener spray. Wonderful board!

    Soooo pretty! This is spot on when it comes to our color motif for my wedding next year. I'll try to come up with my own version but seeing that I found the perfect mood board, I'm not sure if I'll really ever try to make my own. =)
