“And above all,
watch with glittering eyes the whole world around you,
because the greatest secrets are always hidden in the most unlikely places.
Those who don't believe in magic will never find it.”

August paper dress

I know I'm super late with my paper dress for the Dress up Challenge it's almost September! But it's too cute a challenge to pass up, plus I have loads of time to work on my catch-up dresses now.
My parent's anniversary was this month and I decided to pay tribute.
I even used a bit of lace trim on the bottom that was falling off of my mom's dress.
Her dress was ivory,but she always said she wanted it plain white,but money was a factor for them when they started out,I have added a few white flowers in her honor.
Thanks for looking!
