I chose the Cherry Blossoms set and stamped the solid branch repeatedly around the border of a pink panel. I stamped the sentiment and cut it and the red mat with a Spellbinders Labels 14. I lightly stamped another branch image over the sentiment but it’s very hard to see it in the photo. I tied a big bow with some gorgeous May Arts silk ribbon and added a tiny gold heart charm to the center. I finished it off by adding tiny pink gems to the centers of many of the blossoms.

Check out the samples our design team has to share with you today and play along!

The word "sweet" just about sums it up! I absolutely love how you used the Cherry Blossoms set - I don't think I have ever used the solid stamp but you did it SO well! FABULOUS GIRL!

love the background paper. I thought at first it was DP and then read you made it with the blossom stamp. Turned out great.
Love the simple design. Very pretty card.
