Just finished my first DIY!UPDATED WITH PICS!

I just finished my first DIY project! I made little accordian photo scrapbooks to give to two of my closest friends and when they open it up it has pictures of me and each one that I'm giving it to and says 'Will you be my bridesmaid?'

I'll post pictures tomorrow. I'm askiing on Thursday when we go out to dinner! I'm sooo excited!!! (and exhausted! lol)

Update: Tommorow night is the night! Last week had to be cancelled! I'm so excited! What do you guys think?

There really wasn't any instructions other than go to AC Moore and walk around their scrapbooking aisle for 3 hours while it's pouring outside. lol

The accordian scrapbook was made by a company called AMM (I think) and then all you do is buy the stickers and embellisments, cut your pictures and put it all together. It's double sided too so you can decorate both sides with pictures and stuff, which I did.

BEAUTIFUL! They are going to be so excited!! What a great idea - wish I hadn't just blurted out 'YOU ARE MY BRIDESMAID' when i was screaming that I was engaged like 5 minutes after it happened :)
