Cherry Blossom

Morning all. Who stole the sunshine? It raining here and cold and my trousers got wet on the school walk so while they dry I popped my PJs back on. Tee Hee.

Anyhoo, the point of my post is that over at the Passionate Paper Creations and Friends FB Group this week we are being sponsored by the fabulous Power Poppy and if you are a member of the group there is a fabulous discount to be had.

The hardest thing for me about my card was choosing which one of all the amazing floral images to use. In the end I settle on the Blossoming Cherry image. Despite the rain our Cherry Tree are coming into blossom right now:

The amazing sentiment is also part of the digi stamp set.

I kept the design simple, with just a little stencilling in the back ground, but I did manage to sneak some patterned paper in as one of the mats and layers!

Supplies:

• Image: Blossoming Cherry digi stamp from Power Poppy 
• Colouring Medium: Copics 
• DP: from a Lemoncraft 12x12 sheet
• Card: Sheena’s Stamping Card and Copic X-Press It Blending Card
• Sentiment: from the above digi stamp set  
• Embellishments: Pearls

Don’t forget to hop over to the Passionate Paper Creations and Friends FB Group for details of the discount.
