Joe and Jennifer's DCL Vow Renewal PJ/TR~ CEREMONY FINALLY!!!

[29apr00]

Ok, the Embroidery Machine finally arrived!!

I suprised Dh as he was opening the box, he didn't expect me to start taking pictures!

all the thread it came with!!

Brother's Disney PE-290D

reading the instructions, isn't he great!

making it work!

And Ta-DA!! Our first completed project!!

It took a LONG time to get that far!! We had all kind of thread problems with the bobbin, and we couldn't get the colors right. Nothing is red/blue/black/yellow anymore. I need to check and see if Brother makes Disney Color thread. That would help alot!

We have ordered a card writer/reader that will let us adapt other designs and stuff. I have a Lady and the Tramp CD that I can't wait to make something with! Then i'm going to use that and add our names and date to a hanky for the VR! Can't wait to get that reader!!

Here's what we did yesterday!

Actually, that is the whole reason I got the machine!! I'm planning on making bags for the cruise and I wanted to embroider Lady & the Tramp, plus our names on it! Hobby Lobby has bags on sale this week so i'm gonna get one and see how it works out!

You should definately start a DisBride business. I would definately love you to make a few things for me also. I want one of those machines.

Jennifer...it is sooo awesome!

 

[PixyDusted]

Wow! So cool! I can't wait to see what you create!

 

[keenercam]

How awesome, Jennifer!! Congrats on your new toy! I think you will have even more fun with it that I am having with my cricut!

 

[29apr00]

Oh don't get me started Cam!! Those tags you made are too cute and now I want one of those machines!! But i'm not a scrapbooker so i know it would be a big dust collector after the VR, so i'm not going to indulge myself. but all your cute stuff makes it hard not to!!

So last week a wonderful DIS Bride sends me a PM that she found the Lady and the Tramp statue i wanted, and it was on clearance because Lenox was discontineing them! It was only $29.95 plus shipping and tax!! OMG! It's normally $125! Obviously i snatched it up!!

Now, originally my plan was to use it as a cake topper. Well, I got the figureine last night, and it's a LOT bigger than I expected!! It's about 8" long by 6" wide!! It certainly doesn't look that big in the picture. So i guess it's not going to be a cake topper. :lol: But i bet it would look super cute on the cake table, right next to the 2 little Lady and Tramp ornaments that came with the champagne flutes!! So i think my cake table is pretty much decorated now! I just need to determine what the cake will look like!!

I also got some Happily Ever After ribbon off Ebay this week. I'm going to work on the programs and invitations again, hopefully find a way to use that new L&tT Ring design i got.

And lastly, i'm working on a christmas gift for my guests. I'm making a calender for next year, to countdown the months until the trip. And each month is going to have a different DISign i found on the creative design board! There are so many cute designs, i wanted to find a way to share them with everyone! And since i knew most of them wouldn't want to wear matching shirts, i thought the calender would be a cute idea!

Jennifer, it's adorable! And I never would have guessed it'd be that big. I've had a couple of those "surprises" while planning. They're definitely interesting!

 

[29apr00]

I know! I kinda expected to be able to fit it in the palm of my hand! Oh well, it's still a great addition to my collection!

I need a new curio cabinet!! The 2 i have a full already!

 

[lpizzuro123]

Yes, it is a large piece but I think it would look great on the cake table (think of Vanessa's cake table). That is a great price.

We got ours also and it is proudly displayed in our dinning room.

Best wishes,
Linda

Is it the standard picture of the piece or is it a picture you took? All I see is a red X and I usually don't have any problems seeing photos.

OHHH I LOVE the idea of a countdown calendar..... I may use that one too!Congrats on the L&T piece! It sounds like it was a great Deal and a beautiful piece....

It was just a stock photo. I changed it, hopefully you can see it now.

 

[lpizzuro123]
