Friends Of Unity June Blog Hop Weddings

Friends Of Unity

Weddings


"Don't do it!" That is what my husband yelled when I said, "help me figure out what to write about weddings for my blog." Then we both busted out laughing. I guess that's what you get after almost thirteen years of marriage. 

Ok...so seriously just going to jump into telling you about my "Don't do it!" card. LOL

 Margaret Girl must have NOT listened to my husband and instead met her fairy Godmother! She transformed into a beautiful bride in white! Guessing her balloons (I cut them off) were turned into a fabulous carriage or something.

Felt like I was playing with paper dolls when I was fussy cutting out her glittery dress. I used some fast fuse to attach some translucent purple ribbon under her dress. Now what to do with her? To me, she looked like she belonged sitting in a garden so that is where I set her. Her shoes even sparkle! 

 "Forever" is a long time so I figured it needed to be repeated in the background. ha! From Wild Florals by Holly Hoffman.

I cut out some tiny flowers from the same Paper Studio-stack to give her a bouquet, added some tiny pearls around her and bibbidi-bobbidi-boo! Looks like she found her prince and lived happily over after. 
"Don't do it" "pffft whatever!"

My winner of a surprise itty-bitty from last month's hop is....majic wand swish... Michelle MichelleMay 6, 2019 at 5:21 PM

    What a great idea to use an Angie Girl and make her into a bride simply by keeping her dress white or a variation of white. I have so many Angie Girls I can now see as brides!
