Weddings

Hi you all!
It has been extremely hot and muggy here again, so did not have much mojo for crafting.

For this week's wedding tag I used a photo of the wedding of my great uncle back in the 1920s, as can clearly be seen from their clothes. I showed it here a couple of weeks back if I remember rightly!) My Mum is standing next to the bride. Her 2 sisters were also bridesmaids, but I couldn't fit them into the frame today, so they got cut off - sounds brutal!  The frame has been made from an old card that I found in my bit box. I wonder of they had a car like that back then?



Hope you have not all melted away!
Have a great week, take care, and thanks a lot for coming by!
Valerie

  17. Great idea to recycle the pretty card into a frame Valerie. Good job you chopped off the bridesmaids as they would never have fitted in the car!! Fab photo!
