"boy"friend album

I was asked to make the Bo Bunny word album - friend. After talking about it we decided to make it "boy"friend and use it to tell the story of my husband and I while we were dating. I tried to get pictures that showed us through all 7 years of dating from our 1 year anniversary to our engagement pictures. It was so fun to look through all of the pictures and look back at our relationship. We were only 16 when we got together and I can't believe how young we looked.

This was our 1 year anniversary. I used the Cosmo Cricket - Earth Love line. I tried to do a little more journaling to tell the story of us.

I did a 2 page title "You'll always be my baby." I used thickers and chipboard letters (that I painted pink). The"baby" came off of the sticker sheet and I popped them up. I also cut out the leaves to use as a border along the bottom of both pages.

The picture of the left is one of my favorite pictures of us. It was taken while we were dancing at a wedding right before he left to go down to OSU. We did a year of long distance relationship, and it was SO hard, but we made it through. Behind the picture I cut out squares of card stock and patterned paper and distressed the edges of the patterned paper.

On the right, I used the Heidi Swapp mirrors and added some rub-ons.

I had to do a page of us together at OSU. After that one year, I went and joined him down there and we had a blast going to football games, if fact, we never missed one. I added a clipboard and made a couple small pages of journaling. I used grungeboard letters and numbers and inked them orange.

I used a lot of die cut circles through out this album, it is one of my favorite things to highlight pictures. I also die cut the bird in chipboard and patterned paper.

This was one of our engagement pictures. I wrote a little message to him on this page and added "soul mates" in thickers, and another mirror, but this time with a sticker on it.

I hope you enjoyed watching us grow from high school sweethearts to being engaged!
