Once upon a time (6)

25th March
Once upon a time, exactly 365 days ago, it was a meaningful and signifcant day for the Husby and myself! The year had just gone by in a flash, and looking back at it brings back fond memories.

Here are some of our favourite photos:

Love of a lifetime, a lifetime of love...
This photo was taken using a fish-eye lens - it allows everyone present to be included in this photo. I applied the sepia tone to this photo, and really like the look of it! For the rest of the photos, however, using the septia tone for them would be a waste as the emphasis are on the colors, hence they were kept as they were.


The lovely pen and its stand was made from scratch by the Husby
- a hidden talent that even I had not known! :)

Our wedding bands (designed by the Husby!)
They sport an identical motif of an embossed "d" and "p" in one continuous line - the alphabets which represented our pet names to each other. Two diamonds encrusted within symbolise the infinity sign - an oath of love always. The bands are set in matt yellow gold with platinum and a hidden blue sapphire within each.

This large cross-stitch took a total of six months to complete, and is titled "Something Blue".
