While we were in Spain, we took pictures of a church with some cherry trees out in front of it, which reminded me of the cherry blossom festivals we went to when we lived in Japan. And today I made a card inspired by those beautiful blossoms.
I've had that Floral Fusion Sizzlit for a while but this is the first time it's been used. Actually, the Finishing Touches Edgelits hadn't been used yet either. Hey, that's kinda why I started this blog--to make sure I used my stampy stash more often! So, mission accomplished :) I also used FOUR retiring colors: Bashful Blue, Certainly Celery, Pretty in Pink, and Regal Rose. And I think I need more Bashful Blue cardstock (what? so I have a slight hoarding problem).
This week's challenge at Inkspirational was the kick in the pants I needed to get this card made:

I think I know who this card should go to, so maybe I should go write in it now and get it ready to mail. Until tomorrow, happy stampin'!
Supplies (all SU!):
Stamps: You Are Loved
Ink: Whisper White craft
Paper: Bashful Blue, Whisper White, Certainly Celery, Pretty in Pink, Regal Rose, retired Certainly Celery DSP
Accessories: Floral Fusion Sizzlit, Finishing Touches Edgelits, pearls
