Inspiration: Alfonse Van Besten's Flower Girls

    Thank you so much for sharing these! I love them. I so much enjoy following your blog. I live in Sweden. But about ten years ago my dad lived in Arizona and I visited him there once. It´s so nice to visit your blog also because it makes me remember Arizona :)
