Real Parties: Leighton’s Ladybugs

Miss Leighton’s ladybug themed 1st birthday provides so much wonderful inspiration (just check out those tissue paper grass runners)! Sure, Winter is pretty much here but we can start dreaming up plans for a Spring birthday now, can’t we?

I found inspiration for the photos in an issue of Martha Stewart Weddings.
