to make a wedding album for your daughter (30 ish) and she liked a little fun & funky along with borderline vintage...what papers would you choose? Have you seen any great wedding collections lately. She is a graphic designer, but insists she would like a paper SB album. Her wedding colors are baby blue and champagne...anyone have any ideas? Seen anything you think would make a good wedding album? I don't get out much :lol: so I thought I'd pick your brains.

I just did a whole bunch of wedding layouts on Club Scrap's Body & Soul. They were ALSB layouts, so they didn't include any other paper lines, but I was surprised at how well they worked. The bridesmaids wore a light green, and the mothers wore deep navy, so the colors were good. And the embellishments seemed to make more sense than I thought they would.

Anyway, the Body & Soul blue, tan and ivory would probably be a great start. Probably too dull if you used ONLY that line - some patterned paper in the same shades would go a long way to pretty it up.

Here is some of what I found. I enclosed pictures for reference. Yopu could always use a glimmery solid card stock, and mist in baby blue. Or stencil. Or use baby blue paper and stencil, mist champagne accents. Maybe visit Basic Greys website and see if you could find a line of paper that mostly fits the colors, and cover up things that don't apply with pictures. Just a few thoughts, hope they help.

if you go to scrapbook.com, they have an application to use - open it, upload (or is it download?) one of your snapshots and they'll make color & product recommendations. You get to see the photo with the color combos - I've used it on a few and I really like it.
