Dear friend!
I am sooo excited about sharing my book Blossom Buddies with you!!!
I have to say that this little book is one of the most special things that I ever made in my life. And now I will give you more information about it. Let's start with pictures of the cover:
Blossom Buddies is a beautiful hardcover book (with jacket), perfect to be given as a present to anybody. It measures 6x7 1/2 inches and it includes a text written by me (English, German and French) The main purpose of this book is to make you smile :)
*Blossom Buddies contains 133 beautiful bright color photographs of characters that I created using natural elements like flowers etc. (the book has 144 pages)
*Each one of the characters is unique and each one has its own personality. In this book you will find beauty and also humor :)
Now let me give you a little advance of some of the characters that you will see in the book:
Yay!!!!
I wish that I could show you all of them!!!
About the inspiration:
*You can learn about how it all got started by reading this post. When I wrote it I had no idea that a book was going to be born from that experience. I could never imagine back then that I was days away from being contacted by TeNeues represented by someone wonderful that I consider already my friend and her name is Rina. After Rina got in touch with me, we started working on this project with lots of love and dedication and today I can finally introduce it to you.
I want to thank TeNeues from the bottom of my heart for publishing Blossom Buddies and now my biggest dream is for this little book to reach a special spot in your heart.
Lots of love!!!
Elsita :)























My mother-in-law used to take my daughters out in the garden and collect flowers like these and create little flower ladies to play with in the summer. They loved it and I know they will LOVE your book! Beautiful work as usual

Gorgeous! My son's class is studying Earth Day on Wednesday and I told his teacher about this book. Meanwhile, I would love an autographed copy!
Ciao bella,

I just received my copy of the book and it is fantastic. I really enjoyed it myself and shared with my coworkers. What a wonderful set of lovely flowery characters you created - it is very inspirational.
Thank you!

hello Elsita,
we just got our copy and it's awesome, my daughter is so excited, each page has her favorite "flower bug", but I wanted to ask you.... there are several completely empty pages, is that on purpose or did we get defective copy?
thanks Lucie

Hello Elsita. I must say that you have such gorgeous beautiful style!! WOW!! I love the way you put outfits together. I just read your story and I can relate to you about your childhood in so many ways, even on thinking boys were cooler when you were young. I did too, I hated dresses and only wanted to wear boy clothes!! It's funny how we change. Anyway, thanks for the blog site, I look forward to seeing your gorgeous outfits!! What an inspiration you are!! have a lovely day! Arleen P.S. Who makes the beautiful dress on the right that you show called Marias garden??

Dear Elsa,
Hpw are you?
For the feature in magazine Seasons, could you please tell me the given names of the blossom buddies?
I already have names like Coco, Estefano, Polito, but I need three more. I'll send the images of the ones I need in three separate emails.
I hope you can help!
Thanks!
Met vriendelijke groet,
