paper first wedding anniversary gift

Roger has contacted me to make a bouquet for their first wedding anniversary on July 14Th! Here is the picture he sent me of the bouquet which has (after a good round of close exmination :-) of the picture ) sterling silver roses,calla Lillie's,hydrangeas,green mums and filler.

and here is my bouquet recreation!



I tried my best to recreate it and the bouquet has turned out really beautiful.Roger's wife is going to have a surprise of her life I think :-)







Now onto Nicole's order finally.

paper peonies wedding bouquet

Here is the wedding bouquet for Celeste of peonies,tulips and roses in ivory and yellow and white.

I was hoping to match the dress and tie the bridesmaids bouquets.I left out the darker tone of yellow.The bouquet has an ostrich feather trim -(hope no one has allergies -dont want anyone sneezing through the ceremony :-)) - looks very beautiful -now the only thing missing is the groom's boutonierre which is a gardenia and fillers.




Yellow tone wedding bouquet of roses feathers

The bouquet for Celeste is finally getting together (thank you Celeste for your patience)- I was waiting for some leaves.Here are the bridesmaids bouquet - the bouquets look exquisite with velvet vintage leaves made in 1960's!! and gorgeous feathers as the wrap!

Very different from what I usually do.



Here is Celeste's dress (beautiful) and I kept that in mind all the time -I hope the bridal bouquet matches this!











The handle looks just lovely doesn't it? The colors and the trim go soo well together -it has a regal touch just like the dress.

Calla lillies and orchids in paper for Helen

Helen had placed her order last year and I thought I should be doing this one first.She initially ordered green orchids then thought white would be better -so here is her order 4 doz white orchids and 1 1/2 doz calla lilies.The orchids took up a looong time for me to do - I am going to be retiring the orchids as they take up too much of time - maybe small orders will be taken up (lol)

Finally I get to do them in bright colors!

Dahlia wedding cake topper in paper

Clara had emailed and asked for a dahlia and cherry blossom cake flowers in paper,I loved the idea and thought I should take it up even though I have a tight schedule this month!

Here are the picture of a nice orchid tone dahlia and some cherry blossom- the flower are on stems which she is planning to poke into the cake - since I cannot poke into my cake dummy I just arranged them in a bundle.





Hope she like this one!
