Hiya lovely SW Mag ladies! I'd really love to have Peonies, Hydrangea, and Garden Roses in my bouquet. I'd also love to add a touch of something vintage while still staying true to the southern feel...like 1 magnolia or a little cotton.

hmmmm I have been fighting w/ my mother about hydrangeas in my bouquet b/c their language is "change of heart," as they change color depending on the soil, so are unfitting for a wedding.... but they're so cute and seasonal and i love them.
The flowers I want just clash! Hyacinths, peonies, aaaand dahlias??

Since many of the flowers were made in all-white for the palette of the photo shoot and that may make them more challenging to identify, the bouquet includes: gardenias, hydrangea in blue and sand, roses, camellias, lisianthus, and ruffle peonies.
If you *really* love the bouquet in the photo, I might be convinced to give it up to the giveaway winner ... it's one of my personal favorites and I've been holding on to it for display in my studio. ;D
Can't wait to see what the winner selects!!

Cosmos and zinnias!! Yes, please!! I adore them, but sadly, they are not available in April when I'm getting married. I never thought of paper flowers as a way to get around their growing season!!

I cannot get over the bouquet featured in the Paper, Cotton and Flour photoshoot. It's simply breath taking!! The colors are perfect, and it has such a charming feel to it. If I was able to design my own bouquet, I would want something similar--gardenias, blue and sand hydrangea, roses, camellias, and white clover (it grows on our cattle ranch, so it'd be a nice sentimental touch).
Crimson Poppy, your work is amazing! Thank you for the opportunity to win!

What amazing creations! I have always adored parrot tulips, poppies, and garden roses together-- they all look like paper already so it would be neat to see them actually made out of paper!

I would love to have a bouquet of pink peonies (my favorite) with white roses made of paper with our handwritten wedding vows in gold ink. I would like some other smaller flowers too, but I would want Jenny to help me pick something out. She is amazingly talented!

I would choose hydrangeas, daisies, and then smaller flowers to make it a little fuller! I would love for some of the daisies to have lyrics to This Years Love by David Gray!!!

These are more beautiful than the real thing. I would have a mix of white hydrangeas, white geraniums, and white gardenias, with violet blue hydrangeas as the contrasting color. Hydrangeas are my favorite and the paper ones capture them so well!

I just wanted to comment on the amazing bouquet in the photo above. You are a phenomenal artist, Jenny. My fiancé and I are getting married on the 19th of this month. She will be carrying some beautiful sunflowers. I'm sure she wouldn't mind getting a keepsake to remind her of it. :)
