I wanted to do another of Anita's special fold from yesterday, since I didn't add all the elements. To me, a fancy fold and an all-white creation means Christmas or winter, so that's what I did.
I mostly used a fairly white moire paper, buried in the bottom of my paper stash. Also a mulberry and good old Neenah. The moire is thin so I mounted it on the Neenah so it was easier to dry emboss or diecut. I know having the POE sideways is a little funny but I like it...makes you stop and look. This was a pleasure to make.
Many of our western wedding traditions come from Queen Victoria, including the white dress. Others had worn one before her, but her influence was the strongest. I am happy I was not born during the time when a dowry was mandatory, women had no rights or possessions, kept barefoot and pregnant and were considered property. Awful!

So cool with all the different embossed pieces and love the extra die cut snowflakes, too. The iridescent matte medium must be responsible for the shimmer I am catching here and there throughout this confection of white. Thanks for playing in my challenge today!
