Sister's Wedding Painting

My Sister, Ann, married her high school sweetheart this past August.  All the sisters love Bobby and are so happy for both of them!  When I asked Ann what she wanted for a wedding gift, she knew immediately.  She wanted a family floral painting.  So, I met my sisters and nieces in Arkansas and we had a painting party.  She wanted her bouquet of flowers to be all shades of pinks and reds.  I think it turned out really pretty!

She also wanted glitter!  So I added the glittered berries and put glitter dots inside the small pink roses.  Since I knew the painting was going to be hung in her shabby chic guest bedroom, I finished the edges by applying vintage wallpaper and pink velvet ribbon.

Again, here are the BEFORE and AFTER pictures:

To make it a special, I put their wedding date on the vase.

CONGRATULATIONS!!

It is beautiful. I know just how your sister felt- all I for a wedding present wanted was a flower painting!
