Plumeria birthday card
It will be a friend of the family's birthday on Saturday, so I've made her a card to celebrate.

I LOVE orchids, so my first thought was to make loads of paper orchids in the colour scheme, but then I realised that that wouldn't really showcase my Waltzingmouse stamps… Continue reading Return to blossoming health – WMF20
