Today my baby brother is getting married. I'm excited for him and wish nothing but happiness for both of them. My gift to my brother is actually a regift of something I've had for years. It was a gift to me from a dear friend but it just wasn't me. I know you can relate to that! So I'm passing it on...and no, I won't tell you what it is just in case that person checks out my blog someday. LOL
I had my Mom write a poem for the gift and I made paper dolls to go on the packaging.
I cut my paper dolls at 5.5 inches. Biggest paper dolls I've ever made!! The wedding colors are brown and blue, that's why his tux is brown with blue stickles. I added pop dots to his tux jacket and to her flowers to make them raise up. Look closely at his hair....I gave him a "salt and pepper" look with a white gel pen. LOL...He's gonna kill me for that. The faces are from Peachy Keen stamps. I used stickles on the bride's flowers and dress. These dolls look totally AWESOME in person.
Here's a close up of each:
I sure hope they make the journey across the country in one peace! I'm not checking baggage, they'll be with me at all times, they might just have a chance.
Here is the card I made them.
This too is a huge card. The circle alone is 5 1/4 inches! The stamp is from S.W.A.L.K.
Thanks for looking! Have an awesome day.
This is my best and favorite project of the week! I'm linking it up to
Some Odd Girl's Linky Party.
