Today I have available for download what I call "Wedding Couple Topper Sketch". I did this to celebrate my husband an I's wedding anniversary that will be at the end of this month. Now there is a tale behind that little wedding cake topper, and I thought that perhaps other people would like to read it. (You know, in case people are really, really bored.) About three months before our actual wedding day, we still did not have a top for our cake. We looked at many, both in the stores and online, and we simply didn't like any of them. We were stating to think that maybe we should just have it without a topper at all since we were being so picky about it. But one day I was in his parents attic with his mother hunting up some antique glasswear to use for the reception when his Mom found this small box tucked away in the very back of the attic. We opened it up since she had no idea what was in it... I don't think that she had ever even seen it before, to be honest. (There is a lot of stuff in theat attic, the family has been collecting stuff for the last 200 years. Not kidding.) There was all sorts of nifty things in that box, but at the very bottem was a sweet little wedding couple topper from the 1920's. It was a bit battered and the brides head was off, but I fell in love with it. I showed it to my sweetheart and he really liked it too, so we decided to use that. I of course had to glue the head back on the bride (although there was a brief moment of insanity where we considered just placing the head at the couples feet as a gag) and I touched up the paint job some so it didn't look quite so ragged. The couple is not worth anything in an antique market in spite of it's age but it's worth a great deal to us.
So for anybody who is interested in downloading that little wall hanging it can be found here: http://www.thesimsresource.com/downloads/1150277
Below is a photo of the cake topper without me editing it do death. :)
