Everything’s coming up Rosie in the outcome of Royer’s Flowers & Gifts’ annual kids club birthday card design contest.

Her colorful design, featuring flowers, hearts and stars, will adorn the electronic card that kids club members will receive in the coming year. Her prize is a flower delivery.

Rosie is the daughter of Kirsten and Philip Witherup of West Manchester Township, York County. She has a sister and a brother.

Kirsten Witherup explained that Rosie loves crafting.

“As part of that, she thought it would be a really fun activity” to enter the card contest,” Kirsten said. Rosie also likes koalas, dinosaurs and the color pink.

Allison Rivera wins Royer’s Flowers birthday card design contest

Allison Rivera, 9, enjoys playing any game with a ball, including tennis with a neighbor.
But regardless of whether the East Lampeter Township, Lancaster County, resident ever masters her forehand or backhand, she’s already a skilled freehand artist.
“She loves to draw, loves to color,” said her mother, Debbie. “She always has.”
And she’s gotten so good at it that the fourth-grader at J.E. Fritz Elementary School aced this year’s Royer’s Flowers & Gifts Kids Club birthday card design contest.
Her winning entry will adorn the electronic card that kids club members will receive on their birthdays in the coming year. Her design features white daisies set against a purple background and the message, “Have a Flowertastic Birthday!”
Allison’s prize is a free flower delivery on her next birthday.
Allison, whose family also includes her sister, Emily, 8, and father, Angel, loves to draw flowers and people, her mother said. One of her specialties is drawing a person’s face on the side of a cake when it is his or her birthday.
