This winter has given me a bad case of spring fever! So I am devoting this post to a photo art design that reminds me of spring and sunshine. The original photos were of Tia as a Flower Girl. Her parent’s tell me during the ceremony, she bent over and started dropping flower petals spontaneously. All the guests were taken by her tender thoughtfulness. How sweet is that?

ORIGINALS:

Here are a few of the layouts I offered her parent’s during the proof process:
tia-flowergirl-1a

tia-flowergirl-1b

tia-flowergirl-1

Next I added some swirly, flowery edge effects to the layout they liked best from the ones above:
tia-flowergirl-2

The flower and colors from the pictures are so beautiful, I wanted to enhance those, so I added the embellishments in the lower right corner:
tia-flowergirl-3

I showed her parents a few poems about little girls and this is the one they liked best:

Little Girls are precious gifts,
wrapped in love serene,
their dresses tied with sashes,
and futures tied with dreams.

Tia, you are so beautiful. Thanks for letting me create this for you.
