What a fun lift! Christy's fab art as inspiration and an opportunity to create a make-believe family! I used a few of my vintage paper dolls from my collection...unfortunately, none of mine from childhood survived...played with all of them until they were limp. Thanks for hosting the challenge, Adryane!

Text/Fiction:
My nephews wedding was recently featured in Good Housekeeping Magazine! His lovely bride made her own dress and hand-addressed the invitations! I was hoping Emery would be the flower girl, but after meeting my darling granddaughter, the wedding coordinator declared she was too dimensional! Wasnt sure if that was a compliment or a rejection. Between you and me, I thought the entire affair was a little outdated and flat.
On the envelope, only my first name is accurate, the rest is fictitious.

Process:
Start with an ArtsyKardz. Clip multiple layers of the paper doll bride extraction to different layers of the ArtsyKardz. Merge all layers; clip to a Linear FotoBlendz clipping mask and merge. Repeat above steps for the other figures. Resize and arrange each figure on background paper.
Clip flower girl (merged layers) to stamp mask layer of MulitiMedia Document and drag all stamp layers plus blossoms onto layout. Place Paper Layer from MultiMedia Document under bridesmaid and clip her layers to the document layer.
Add various transfers and textures around the page for interest (Taped Textures and Paper Texture 3_9 were recolored). Arrange Envelope, elements, and WordART (create sticker layer, if desired) on top of other layers. Recolor and place Stains, Splatters, and leaf brushes to add color where needed. Finish with text and bow.
