Dramatic Cherry Blossoms

Hi, Friends! It’s Caly and I’m here to share a card today made using the Cherry Blossoms set! Spring is finally here and this set gives me all the feels. I love Pretty Pink Posh florals and this is one of the first sets I ever got my hands on.

I’m a bit of a realist when I color florals so I chose a really pale pink with pops of darker colors for the flowers’ centers.  I wish the colors showed up better in the pictures, but I promise – there is light pink in every petal!  

Copic colors used:  G21, G24, G28, R0000, RV10, RV25, YR16

After coloring my images, I worked on my background.  I started with a light blue cardstock and ink-blended with Peacock Feathers Distress Oxide Ink around the edges only to create a glow in the center for my floral arrangement.

To frame my flowers, I first die-cut the smaller rectangle from the Scallop Frames set in white and attached it to my ink-blended panel using foam adhesive for dimension.  Then I attached my flowers with foam adhesive over the frame.  To finish my project, I embossed a simple sentiment from the Bear Friends stamp set in white over black cardstock and adhered it over my flowers at the bottom of the card.

I hope you enjoyed this project!  Thanks so much for stopping by today!
