We went to our friends house for dinner last night because they wanted to give us our wedding present that we hadn't received yet.
They made us a beautiful scrapbook collage in a frame with all the 'papergoods' (invites, reception card, programs...etc) from our wedding. It came out so nice, I LOVE IT! And all the flowers in the background were painted on by them by hand.
Not only did the frame turn out beautiful, but its such a thoughtful gift because its something that took them a long time to complete, and they put their hearts into it. They said that someone made something similar for them for their wedding and they loved it, so they wanted to do it for us. Definitely one of my favorite gifts from the wedding by far.
Take a look...what do you think?

some close ups of the details...

ummmmmmm....no, I wasn't in Jersey for dinner last night.

It's from Ryan and Tara. But you're right, it does seem like something Christina would make for us.
