Wedding

I created this wedding announcement for some of my neighbors. This is the back side, the other side has another picture with the regular announcement. I used a few of my CDs to create this. It's a really easy design - you are welcome to copy if you ever have the need.

Note: It's absolutely acceptable to use the DSM CDs for wedding announcements as long as you aren't selling your work. Using our CDs for commercial use is not allowed.

I took their pictures too. Here is another one I like:

Good luck this week Jared and Melissa! I'm excited for you!

Hi April or should I say cascade lol

I love the fact that you included stuff from oakcrest. I attended it in 95 sport was my counselor.

Anyway I stumbled on your blog today while I was looking for the title to an oakcrest camp song that I listend to the recently.

It struck such a cord with me that I even wrote down the lyrics as listened to it.

I was hoping that you or someone famillure with oakcrest would shed some light as to the title and or author.

I really would like to share it with other's who I feel would be touched by its message.

But every attempt to find out the info I seek has been unfruitful and in vain.

perhaps it would help if I provided some lyrics

I looked out over the mountain...

And watched as the fields and the valleys below ...

wake up to greet the sun in its morning glow...


listen in as the flowers seem to tell of the might that has come and gone....


People some are lost and trying to find the music and violen...

Slow down and on your way discover yourself there's a syphany within.



the 2nd part


falling rain brings a rainbow...

a heart is stirred and a child is told with the rainbow comes his prize of gold....

Men like children are searching but the untold path to rainbow is christ...

Its the light within mans eye.


the chrorus

then quietly I ask myself the beauty that I see is oh so simple men can't understand?

so there it is not in its entirity

because I don't want to infringe on any copy rights


That's why I want to know who its by and or at least the title


Hope you have a good day

P.s even of you don't know any info about the song. Would like to connect with other's who know and have cherished their experiences of oakcrest.

Sally Sunshine, I have no idea on that song. It doesn't even sound familiar to me. Do you think for sure it was an Oakcrest song? There is an Oakcrest blog for the 1995 counselors. I put your question up there. I hope someone can help you. Here is the link:

That's too bad oh well maybe some on the link will recognize it. I am certain that its an oakcrest song since its on the blue cassette tape that says its from oakcrest. I would just look it up in my oakcrest song mannual but I lost it.

Thank you you maybe if I posted the entire song on here some one could recognize it.


I like your site though and am interested in photography also.

wow that is pretty

April (Thorup) Oaks said...

Thanks girls!

SallySunshine, that's interesting that song was on the Oakcrest tape and I don't remember it at all. Did you see on the Oakcrest blog one other person posted saying they don't remember it either? Strange. Someone still may come to your rescue. That Oakcrest blog is slow.

I love the announcement. I am glad I am not in a contest with you in this department!

SallySunshine said...

That is odd indeed perhaps if I included the entire song someone would recognize it. "ill try to post it on the oakcrest blog today.


Thanks

By the way I think the wedding announcement looks great.
