Illustration Friday - "Detach"



Hi Everyone...

This week's theme was a little tough...but after a while the only thing I could think of was this...

"Her bridesmaids took extra care to detach the ribbons and bows for her special shower hat"

but the only thing the blushing Bride wanted was for that hat to be detached from her head...lol

Have a wonderful weekend!!!

Hugs....

Diana

Hi Diana, this is a great drawing. the color is wonderful and reminds me of so many showers I have been to. have a great weekend

Diane said...

I love this illustration...it takes me back...way back! Have a wonderful weekend, Diana!

What a great idea! I agree with everyone, it does take me back, but I think her hat is definitely nicer than mine was. I remember accidentally tossing it, so I wouldn't have to wear it!

Better than a cheap looking veil with condoms stuck to it. Love the vibrant colors and the drawing.

It is new to me and I love it!

Emily said...

Darling as always Diana! Hihi… do you think anyone likes having something tied under the chin?

Candace Trew Camling said...

this is cute...they did this to me at my showers and rehearsal too. At least my friends made it pretty...because I have seen some ridiculous bow hats!
I love this illo

Dot said...

What a creative interpretation! I like the look on her face beneath that gaudy hat! It is a funny tradition!
