A real love story has no ending

With June nearly over, perhaps we'll start seeing a little wedding hiatus—until August, that is. So clearly the next thing all we wedding planners and wedding goers need to do is get scrappin'!  If you follow our Facebook fan page (which, you should, because we've been introducing some killer contests that can get you some super free stuff), then you already know who won our wedding scrapbook page contest, and that she received the Solutions: Wedding Cricut cartridge. Today it's our pleasure to feature the winner and runner up right here on our blog, and present a couple other great ideas from some of our fav brands!

Winner of the Facebook Wedding Scrapbook Page—Susan

And Sherry was the runner up! Great job ladies!

Here's two cute Bazzill looks:

And Slice knows how to do weddings! Here's three goodies that 

you're sure to love.

With a little over a week left in June, summertime festivities are really just starting to begin. Excitement is almost tangible in the air. Around these parts, children are chomping at the bit for the thunder, lightning and rain to clear up so they can cannonball into the nearest pool. And most importantly: The firework stands are popping up all over town.

Who's excited for the 4th of July? The holiday itself wreaks of fun, family togetherness, food and freedom! However you decide to celebrate, do it in style! Check out this stylish selection of home decor.

Sometimes it's the simplest look that pulls off the biggest bang. This Sizzix star wreath is simple in its sophistication:

With a touch of the Cricut's Alphalicious cartridge, you too can be a proud American:

This dashing Provo Craft USA can be created with your favorite Cricut font and a good, hearty Cricut star. Personally, the star on Doodlecharms is a charming one indeed! Everyone is entitled to their favs, right:

And here's a fun one to get you in the mood for our country's b-day. This Scenic Route idea can be created with your favorite red, white and blue paper (have you seen Oh My Craft's and Bazzill's monochromatic paper packs???), a good ol' star (we've already shown you a great Cricut and Sizzix star), some wire, and the Alphalicious cartridge (or another—it's really up to your preference!) :
