I have been blessed to create several paper bouquets over the years and each one holds a special place in my heart because a paper bouquet marked the beginning of The Embellished Boutique. I must say this one surpasses them all. I’m not sure if it’s the flowers or the color palette but it brings me immense joy. I love transforming paper into art. This piece truly embodies that vision. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did. I wish I had kept track of how much paper was used in the process of forming each petal but I do know it was several packs, but it was well worth the end result. Happy Crafting. Portia with The Embellished Boutique

49 and Market Little Celebrations Frame

Hello fellow crafters! Today, I am thrilled to share with you a fun frame I altered using 49 and Market's Little Dreamers collection. This is a stunning line that beautifully complements special photos. The die-cuts were ideal for embellishing the corners, and I used some with foam dots to add more dimension. I particularly appreciate the versatility of this line's color palette, which makes it perfect for both boys and girls. The colors are exquisite. To achieve a distressed look, I applied Tim Holtz walnut oxide stain. I hope you enjoy this project. Happy Wednesday! Portia with The Embellished Boutique.
