I decided to make a garden for little Marci! The paper collection is Graphic 45's Once Upon a Springtime. I used some miniature wooden fencing I found at Joann's awhile back and used a crackle technique to make it look aged (1 layer of brown acrylic paint, 1 layer of Crackle medium, then 1 layer of white acrylic paint.) All the flowers and sprays are from my I Am Roses flower stash. The doily was die-cut using MFT's High Tea Doily. The flourish is by Sizzix. I hand crinkled some seam binding and added a Bazzil Bling button to the center.
Here's a close up...

I'm also SUPER excited to announce that Irina Blount, owner for La-La Land Crafts, has invited me to play along with her talented and AWESOME design team for the months of June and July!
