Destination Wedding "Out of Town" bags


Well, the wedding is quickly approaching and I have been so, so busy this week. I had a few things to make that were my responsibility for this destination wedding. I need to make bags for the hotel rooms and a drink voucher pocket for gift certificates to a bar. Pretty simple design, but the happy couple wanted to add a special touch with a surf board ornament keepsake.
The drink vouchers holders are a pocket page that can be inserted into the mini album that I made for each of the guests. This digital image came from Carmen.
I have a few others from her site that will go well with the tropical theme, but I just didn't want to go overboard with the mini books.
The paper is from The Paper Studio and it called "A day at the Beach". I hit a fantastic sale at Hobby Lobby last week at 50% off. Yeah.
Oh, by the way, raffia is a mess. I think my dog, Darby, felt neglected this week. Is this picture pitiful or what.

 Thanks for looking and I will have a post on my mini album later today.
