The theme for this month's blog hop at Papertrey Ink is anything flowers, and I thought this would be the perfect opportunity to showcase my friend Christina MacLaren's talents, as she crocheted this beautiful flower embellishment for me:
I stamped BB Text Style in Versamark on the bird, and ran the Nesties frame through with the Woodgrain IP:
