Wedding Guestbook

While speaking to one of my brides yesterday, she asked if she should get a wedding guestbook.

Still along the lines of her work and the couple both like the original art.

To do this simply get a large canvas and either let your guest freely decorate or you can mark out grids or a paint by numbers style template for them to follow. Like this:
