Wow – thank you SO much for your awesome comments and feedback. I've read them all and I'm feelin' the love. My readers are just the best!!
On to day #2 of our DOcelebration! Like I discussed yesterday – I get a lot of requests for either more information or questions on how to do something. Today's project falls into the "request for more information" category. A couple of years ago, I did a class that featured an adorable Photo Wallet Album found here. Since that time – I've received TONS of requests on how to make one. Well, again…today is your lucky day!
Here's a remake of that project using a wedding theme with Elements of Style and Word Play stamp sets (speaking of Word Play – look before for today's blog candy!).

Dawn's Reminders
WOW – this is a hard question as there are so many!!! I think that Lovely as a Tree has got to be my all time favorite though. It’s the one that I couldn’t do without! ~chris
I agree – that IS a hard question! I think, though, Elements of Style or, maybe, French Foilage.
Thank you for the video. The black and crumb cake album looks so elegant. This would make a great gift for so many different occasions.
A favorite stamp set–that is definitely a difficult question! I would say Teeny, Tiny Wishes as it covers so much with one set.
Love, love, LOVE this wallet!! If only it was the beginning of my kids nap and not the end I would be creating this right now! Gorgeous!
Right now? Delicate Doilies! I thought I would hate it, but now I reach for it all the time!
My favorite stamp set right now is The Open Sea from the summer mini. It’s a great “guys” set. My favorite from the main catalog is Nature Walk. I’m sad that the paper that coordinated with it retired. Thanks for all your inspiration:)
just love this project! that you so much for the pdf file and the vid! my favorite set right now is Word Play….use it all the time!
The wallet is beautiful and thank you for doing a PDF file..it is so helpful. You do such great work. It is hard to pick one set but right now I really like “My Friend”.
Love your wallet and thanks for doing the video. At my age, seeing how something is done is a great help! Stamps from the “All Natural” section are always my favorites and I have put Lovely as a Tree to good use many times!
Thanks for sharing this adorable project! I love “button buddies”!
Dawn, what a wonderful gift for the Bride-to-be. I can also think of other uses for the same gift. Thanks for sharing. As far as my favorite stamp set, it would have to be Lovely as a Tree. It is so versitile. I have used it alot.
How amazing is this project and it uses my favorite stamp set of Elegant Style. Not only could you use it to put wedding gift in, but the bride uses it for pictures. Awesome!
I love the sentiment sets…Teeny Tiny Wishes is my favorite set I own; Word Play is at the top of my wish list. Thanks for the chance to win it.
I love Elements of Style (so neat how you used it here) because it is so elegant, yet can be shabby chic too! I love your ideas!
My favorite stamp for right now is Pennant Parade and the punch. Thanks so much for such a beautiful project. You are an inspiration to me and I always look forward to seeing your work. ~ Sandra
I am loving the Flower Fest stamp set right now…but I’m sure it will change as soon as I get a new set 🙂
I’m thinking that the Button Buddies stamp set is the one for me…just love that little pig! Love your blog, Dawn!
I fell in love with this project! I just think it’s wonderful! Great job! My favorite stamp right now is Flower Fest!
Hope this doesn’t post twice, but it didn’t seem to work the first time. I think LAAT for all time, it’s just so versatile, right now I’m lovin on the pennant punch and set! That wallet is sooooooo pretty, I’m itching to get my hands on that mocha morning. I would love to win this, I’ve wanted word play for so long but it’s just not in my budget, and I couldn’t place an order when it was on sale. Hugs to you for all you do for us!
I check your Blog every day to see what goodies you have to share!!
Favorite set…hmmmmmmmmmmm…probably Lovely as a Tree since I use it the most.
I love the Best of Everything stamp set. The little bird is the cutest ever! HB and many more!
Probably my favorite set right now is Button Buddies!! This may change tomorrow though!!
Hands down it has to be Lovely as a Tree! This is a must have set, it works for any season just by changing colors and most of all it’s great for creating cards for the men in your life! Lovelovelove it!
Wonderful video and project. Love the color combination and DSP. Oh my, my favorite stamp set would have to be Flower Fest, Delicate Doilies is a close 2nd though! Thanks for your daily inspiration.
I just rediscovered Lovely as a Tree for a swap I recently did and can’t wait to make this fall card I had on my mind for a couple of days.
I am liking things done with Hello Doily & French Foliage! Love checking out your blog, you are awesome! Thanks for a chance to win some blog candy.
Hmmmmm …. So many!! Too many!! Stampin Up! offers so many great versitile sets! Mine would probably still be Baroque Motifs!
Wow…..gorgeous photo wallet!! My favorite?? Wow…what a tough question. I’m not sure if I can name just one….I love French Foliage…and the new Creative Elements! I love that they are collage type stamps….or at least you can layer them that way.
I’d have to say Lovely As A Tree… it’s been in the catalogue for years, and it’s still such a great set!
Dawn, I have to say first that I LOVE your video tuturiols “How’d She Do That?” Keep up the awesome work! I don’t own a lot of stamp sets right now but one of my favorite “go to” stamp sets is Bliss. I just love the feminine feel of it and it has so much versatility.
Only one stamp set?!? I love so many, but right now I’m loving the Open Sea and I hope they carry it over.
Love your project! I would say my newest favorite is Field Flowers from the newest catty. My favorites have always been florals like Roses in Winter. Love 2-stamping sets!
Its too hard to pick just on but since I have it…will say Vintage Vogue.
My favorite is still Nature Walk. I’m so glad it’s in the new catalog.
Since I have two young boys I can’t wait to get creative with the I Dig You stamp set. This set will be so much fun for scrapbooking and birthday cards!
Three things make me SOOO happy: 1)A project that I love 2)Having a specific event for the project and 3)Having all of the supplies on hand to make it!!!
Elements of Style is one of my favorite sets because you’ve made so many beautiful projects with it 🙂
Right now one of my favorites is Elements of Style. Ok, that took a long time to choose because there are just so many!
My favorite stamp set or at least the one I go to the most is Sincere Salutations. I love the script style!
Pure Elegance!
Dawn YOU are the BEST! I LOVE the wallet project and am thrilled that you supplied the PDF for me to create my own. As for my favorite stamp set—how can anyone choose just one—but if so, I have to go with Just Believe. Keep up the great work. You bring a smile my way every morning! ;D
Hi and thanks for another chance to win some blog candy! My favorite stamp set is “Just Believe”. I love all the different types of techniques you can use this for including the Embossed Resist–
Great project. I can’t wait to try it out. Anyone know how to get more hours in the day…between sewing and cardmaking…I need more time. If I could only retire!! Aw well…I have loved “Lovely as a Tree” since it’s introduction. I have used it on cards fro Christmas, Spring, scrapbook page for Easter and many others.
PS: How Did She Do That is so awesome!
Another vote for Lovely as a Tree, guess that’s why it’s been around so long! I also love the retired Roses in Winter and the “hedgies”. No, I am not a million years old. Button Buddies and Sail Away are getting some heavy use now. I will be starting in on my Halloween cards as soon as possible. TFS!!
Wow! So hard to choose just ONE favorite stamp set! I’m always looking for words, so I’d have to choose Sincere Salutations! I can’t wait to buy Hand-Penned Holidays! 🙂
So many great sets to choose from but I would have to go with Button Buddies!
Your project is so lovely. Love Elements of Style set that you used. Thank you so much for always sharing your projects. You are so talented. Blessings.
This stamp set is on my wish list, so to win it would be fab…LOL Love your project, too…it’s gorgeous.
I love the new stamp set that has the bird, branch, bird’s wing and the blossoms that match the bird punch and Boho blossoms punch. So pretty.
I love so many different sets and I don’t think I could pick just one! Hope that doesn’t knock me out of the blog candy! I would love to have this set! I am totally amazed at all your great projects! Today’s card – I had something similar in mind but hadn’t thought about the matching fabric bow! Thanks! Love the wedding project – just so elegant. I love your blog and your tutorials are super! Thanks for sharing your talent with us.
Thanks so much for the tutorial on the great project! My current fave stamp set is pennant parade…only because it’s my newest! My favorite is always the set I just got!
Great project as always – love it!! I’m not sure I have a favorite set but I am drawn to floral sets. So I guess I would say my favorite would be any flower set – truly. I need to branch out from them. 🙂
my new favorite stamp set is Delicate Doilies…love your ideas…..love candy too
My favorite stamp set right now is the HOPE set. This project you made is just beautiful!! Thanks for the chance to earn blog candy! 🙂
It’s difficult to just pick one but I guess I would have to say Curvy Verses. Loved the instructions for the awning with the ice cream cones. Thanks so much for sharing
robin
i love your projects! favourite stamp at the moment- fab florets, but changes often! love this new project, thanks
I love the new Pennant Parade set. Thanks for your informational blog. I appreciate it!
Another Lovely as A Tree fan here!!
Wow, a favorite stamp set, hmm, I just love Awash with Flowers for Feminine and Open Sea for the Guys.
I have lots of favorite stamp sets, but I really love the Just Believe set. You can do so many things with it. Thanks for your wonderful daily tips and techniques!
My favorite stamp set is Elements of Style but I REALLY want Word Play!!!
I love the Hello Doily stamp and the new Lace Ribbon Board punch.
Dawn, Love your site, and your wonderful ideas and video techniques. Keep up the great fun! Fall is also my favorite season, so the new “gently falling” stamp set looks like a must have for me. I can already picture so many card ideas using the set. Thanks again for your great stampin site.
I just used the Button Buddies at a workshop and that is my current favorite ! Love the wedding photo mini album – Thanks for sharing!!
My favorite stamp set is “Bliss” followed by Artistic Etchings, but after seeing this project it may be Elements of Style. 🙂 Your work is lovely and your videos are easy to follow. Thank you for sharing so freely of your gifts and talents.
I love the new doilies sets. When embossed they look so real.
Not sure it’s a favorite, but it’s one I use all of the time….Teeny Tiny Wishes. Thanks for all you share!! 🙂
Think I’d go with Thoughts & Prayers because I have to use it so often for sympathy cards. It’s perfect for that but have also used the tree for birthday cards. Word Play is on my wish list but hasn’t cleared yet. Sure would be nice to win it. : ) Thanks for the blog candy offer!
What a beautiful photo wallet and what a wonderful wedding gift also! I love it!
My favorite stamp set? Oh, that’s a hard one as I love so many of them, but a great one for fall is the “Lovely As A Tree” set.
Thanks so much for the chance to win this blog candy.
My favorite new set is Array of Sunshine.
This is so beautiful! I am definitely going to have to try to make one of these!
As for my favourite stamp set – it’s so tough to pick a favourite because it totally varies depending on my mood, but I would have to say probably Growing Green – it seems to be my go to set!
How can you pick one set. I have alot of favorites. I really like the studio sketches and the family reunion sets. Love your videos.Thanks for sharing.
There are so many to choose from but Teeny Tiny Wishes comes in the top spot. It is so versatile and can be included in almost any project.
What a wonderful project..very elegant! Some of my favorite sets are Field Flowers, Elements of Style, Thoughts and Prayers…and the list goes on and on! LOL 🙂 Becky
Thanks Dawn for sharing these wonderful projects with us. Easy to see why you have all those blog hits! Hard for me to name a favorite stamp set, but I love Elements of Style and go for it a lot…along with a few favorite sentiment sets.
Sincere Salutations is my favorite set. My friend is getting married next summer and I can’t wait to show her this fabulous idea. Thanks!
I am passing on a holiday preorder just so I can get the warmest wishes hostess set on 9/1. I think that little owl is so cute! I am also getting Pennant Parade so I can’t wait! I love the versatility both sets offer. Im counting down the days……
My favorite stamp set is elements of style. Thanks for all your great videos!
Hi Dawn – Love this photo album. You do such a wonderful job on your tutorials. Can’t say thanks enough for sharing your talent with us. My new favorite set is probably Christmas Lodge.
OMGosh this is the YUMMY blog candy…I so want this set…My favorite set TODAY…you know its so easy to change is It’s a Wrap…Not just for wrapping candy…TFS all of your artwork and tutorials…looking forward to making this one…

Hi Dawn!
My favorite stamp set is “fabulous florets” but I find I a go to set for me is still “sincere salutations”.
What an elegant wedding wallet, thanks for sharing with us.
Let me first off say that I love the wedding photo ablum you created and love the DSP you selected for this project. Always a pleasure to see what you come up with. My favorite stamp set is: Elements of Style but than again, I love all of the stamp sets.
Your card is lovely. I love the neutral color scheme.Thanks for sharing!
It’s so hard to pick a favorite stamp set! It’s like picking my favorite child. I especially love sets that coordinate with punches. I’m a punch addict:-)
Inky hugs,
Janet
I love the My Friend set. I really like the project you shared. The Mocha Morning dsp is fabulous!!
My favorite stamp set is Baroque Motifs. Other images can be stamped while using it in the background.
Field flowers is my favorite stamp set (for now).
Oh, to pick just one favorite . . . I do love Elements of Style – I used it for my son’s wedding last summer! (You can see the wedding programs on my CLOcards Facebook page.) My current NEW favorite is Petite Pairs – such a fun outside/inside set!!!
My favorite set is field flowers (for now).

Nature Walk wins as my favourite of all time. I love how you used the little vine from Elements of Style on your wedding album – I must try that technique. Thanks for another great video tutorial.
Mary
Dawn, I love “Autumn Days” as I find myself using it for many sympathy cards, as well as birthday cards for the guys! Thank you for the chance at your blog candy!
Thanks for sharing another wonderful project! Congrats on your blog milestone. I have so many ‘favorites’, but Just Believe is probably ‘the one’.
My favorite stamp set is Creative Elements. It was the first one I bought when the new catalog came out!
My favorite stamp set is fabulous florets, many times I pick it out but then think I should use something else, but lots of times it is my first choice. Thanks again for the video
My favorite stamp set changes almost daily. Strangely enough, it
always seems to match the latest card you have posted on your
blog for us.
I love the elements of style stamp set and I just love the new posts!! Thank you for the opportunity to win Word Play!!!!
Oh that is an easy one the Large Doily and the smaller ones. Love them, they would make such great heritage pages and cards. Thanks for the chance Dawn. Love this project and am going to use it, but using it for a friend that has a pet (dog) that has congestive heart failure and won’t make it a to much longer and I think this would be great for her pictures and memories of her dog Ginger.
angel hugs
Debby
What a wonderful project! My all-time favorite has to be Elements of Style. I think it will be around as long as Lovely as a Tree! Thanks for sharing your many talents.
I like the new It’s a Wrap stamp set… When you can combine chocolate with stamping, you know you got a winner!!! Nancy P…
First thank you for all the wonderful inspiration that you provide, I have learned so much from you.
My favorite stamp set at the moment is Creative Elements. I would love to win the stamp set and project.
Donna Coffman
Hi, Dawn!
My computer at home is down so I wasn’t able to get your post for Saturday or Sunday. I’m probably too late for this, but want to say that one of my favorite sets is the Hello, Doily. Keep up the good work…I love what you do!
Sandi Malone
I like the christian saying sets, I use alot of words on my card and I like the idea of something very important to say on my cards.
Thanks and God Bless your efforts
my favorite stamp set is fox & friends but I must say I haven’t used it much yet. I’m hoping to use it a lot more with workshops coming up again. I have to add that my favorite color isn’t either of those you mentioned. My favorite is the lucky limeade. I just love greens and this one is great. My all time favorite though was the green galore which I can’t demo anymore 🙁
I like your elegant wedding project. My favorite new stamp set is “fabulous florets”. My favorite old standby set is “sincere salutations” as a go-to for sentiments.
I’d have to say that two my favorites right now are Hello Doily and Medallion. Going way back, I love Petal Prints, Terrific Tulips and Roses in Winter!
Susan, aka Soozie4Him on SCS
Oh Dawn – yet another AMAZING project! You never cease to inspire me! My favourite set? Just one? Really? Right now… I think it has to be Fabulous Florets – but in all honesty… there’s sooooo many!
Thank you, sincerely, for all you do! You are truly awesome!
My favorites are snow much fun and delicate doilies. Thanks for the chance to win! Wow, you have awesome blog candy!!
My favorite stamp set is Upsy Daisy. It’s a “grab it” stamp set for most kinds of occasions, and there are so many techniques that can be used with it. I also love the sayings that come with it.
I love this project..you are so creative. My go to set is Teeny Tiny Wishes..good for ANY occasions. I also love Fabulous florets. Thanks for sharing
very nice and elegant, my favorite stamp set(s) are Just Believe, Bells and Boughs and Dark and Dreary.
Absolutely elegant! This will be a terrific gift for any bride. I may change the style and make one for a baby shower too!
my favorite set? I would have to say Nature Walk. I really like the nature sets. I really enjoy your blog. Thank you for all the fun ideas.
My favorite stamp set has to be teeny, tiny wishes. It has something for every occasion and they are the perfect size! I really enjoy watching your videos, thanks so much!
My favorite stamp set is Just Believe, but why do we have to have just one?
My favorite stamp set seems to change all the time. It seems to depend on my mood.
My favorite stamp set is the new Button Buddies—uses two of my favorite things, stamps and buttons!
Favorite stamp set? That’s funny! I like so many, that I don’t think I could pick a favorite. Elements of Style and Greeting Card Kids are at the top of my wish list, though 🙂
Baroque Motifs, you can do so much with that set!
Your project is so beautiful. Thank you for sharing your inspiration with all of us. My favorite stamp set is Wedding Sweet. Thanks for offering the blog candy.
Ronna Crowley
Oh, to pick just one…. I seem to grab for Lovely as a Tree quite often. Also, Just Believe. But, looking at the new catalog, I can see many sets that will be on my wishlist as “future favorites”.
This is a great project idea. Any bride would be honored to receive this. My current favorite stamp set is Just Believe. It has images and words…great starter set.
How grand for you to share your projects with the public. I say “thank you” when times are a little rough to have a free technic. Bev
ooo too many to mention..lol..love the project..tfs..loves ya
Dawn~ What a wonderful blog you have! I enjoy visiting week by week to see your creations. I am excited that you are doing a giveaway this week because I am too! How ironic! I am celebrating my return to Blogland!! Congratulations on 2 million hits! I hope to have that many hits someday!! My favorite stamp set is Elements of Style. I love creating vintage projects with it. Thanks for sharing and for the opportunity to win some blog candy!! Happy Stampin’!
I love that stamp set for you can make so many different cards with the set. Enjoyed the Wedding album tutorial.
It changes regularly but at the moment it is fabulous florets, with field flowers coming in a close second
Thanks for the opportunity to win
EIleen
WELL THE TRUE IS I DONT HAVE FAVORITE , BECAUSE FOR LONG TIME I LOVE ALL THE STAMP OF STAMPIN UP, I LOVE EVERYTHING I WISH TO WIN THE LOTTO AND BUY ALL:)
CRAZY AHHHH!:0
ANGELLOVE7
Ah, what a stunning project! So elegant. My favorite new stamp set is Friendly Phrases. I love the font!
I love this. It is beautiful. My favourite is probably circle circus for versatility.
I love this idea!!
Oh my goodness, how do I pick just one favorite?? Right now I am really loving Pennant Parade, so many possibilities! Thanks for the chance to win!
i love teeny tiny wishes in both french and english… it is the most versatile set for all occasions!! and it goes well with the window punch so it is really extremely useful… even if a bit pricey.
Thanks for sharing this beautiful album. My favorite stamp set is Just Believe and Elements of Style.
I just love this idea and love your videos! Right now I am using a lot of Snow Much Fun and Just Believe. It changes for me quite often! Thanks for the chance to win some candy!
LOVE your video tutorials! I’m a visual learner, and seeing first hand how you do something helps me tremendously. THANK YOU for taking the time to do them for us! I don’t have it, but I love the Word Play stamp set, and it’s on my “Wish List”.
My favorite set would probably be any floral or natural set. I don’t know how much more specific I can be. It depends upon the occasion for the card what stamp set I use. 🙂
I love the fall projects!! I really love the Word Play set and it’s on my wish list. I’d love to win it. You are a huge inspiration to me!
I love the Greeting Card Kids set. These little ones remind me of cartoons/cards when I was young.
Love this project, and what great timing! I’m presently working for 2 brides, and this would be a fabulous “Best Wishes” project to throw in after they’re happy with their other wedding projects that they’re entrusting to me! TFS! My favorite set right now is between Field Flowers and Easy Events. Love the autumn feel of Field Flowers, but Easy Events is so versatile for me!
Really? A favorite? Well, I guess it would have to be the new Button Buddies, I’m having a lot of fun with it. Love this project! What a lovely gift to share with a newly wed couple!
Thank you for sharing your talent!
Debra
Great project! love seeing what you come up with! enjoy your bog everyday!
My favourite stamp set right now is Many Merry Messages. I just finished my Christmas cards, so that one is right on top again!
Thanks!
Great mini album! My current favorite set is My Friend.
excellent idea. thanks for sharing
I love Thoughts and Prayers. Choose it almost every time for sympathy cards.
Love your project & the stamp set it would fit very well in my library of sets, I think my favorite is “Elements Of Style” but I do have many favorites, & I use “Teeny Tiny Wishes” the most..
Thank You for Sharing!
My favorite stamp set ‘today’ is Gently Falling. I need a good leaf set for fall and this is perfect! Thank you SO MUCH for sharing today’s project! It’s the perfect gift for a wedding I just attended!
Hi Dawn
My favorite stamp set is Elements of Style. Thanks for the daily inspiration I get on your site. Your work is great!
what a wonderful video!!
i would have to say my favorite stamp set is baroque motifs – a classic.
Love your site. This would be a great treat for my birthday (which is today).
okay i wanna do this “share” but come up with some version to hold the Christmas cards that are sent by several with the pics…think they are something like 3x7ish…and my favorite stamp set is “Come to Bethlehem” because you can use the “Giving thanks for God’s Gift of Love and the joy we share through Christ the Lord” for a new baby or a new friendship…not just Christmas Cards…
sonyagilley@yahoo.com
My fav stamp set, well what I am using the most at the moment is French Foliage I just love the different cards I can make with it.
Love, love, love your project! It is absolutely adorable. The stamp set you have chosen looks perfect on this project. One of my favorite stamp sets is “Lovely As A Tree” but there are too many great stamp sets to have just one favorite (lol) Thanks for sharing your amazing talent.
Over the top GORGEOUS!!! Have 2 weddings coming up and I think the Moms of the Brides might NEED these! Thanks so much for the video and PDF!
