Hello, sweet friends! After a bout with the dreaded flu bug, I am back in action and will be sprinkling your blogs with love later today! I hope you are healthy and happy.♥︎ I am posting on the Wild Orchid Crafts blog, sharing a sweet pink birthday card.
Blossoming in love for the special day, my bouquet is filled with roses, sweetheart blossoms, rosebuds, and gorgeous tulips. Oh the beauty of WOC.♥︎
Blossoming in love for the special day, my bouquet is filled with roses, sweetheart blossoms, rosebuds, and gorgeous tulips. Oh the beauty of WOC.♥︎
I combined Pink Mist and Mixed Pink flowers for a variety of pink shades, nestled alongside pure white beauties. ♥︎ The dreamy papers are from Maja Design's Sofiero collection. I kept the framed design mostly open because it's just so lovely.. I envision it as the butterflies dancing around a sweet scene, with darling rosebuds sprinkling atop the birthday girl.
The bow is made with lovely Pink Tulip seam binding and my sentiment is trimmed with White Net Lace. (Yes, I have an affinity for doing that.) ♥︎ The pretty frame is Tutti Design's Butterfly Oval, which makes my heart happy.
Thank you for fluttering on by and I wish you a beautiful day! ♥︎
