Hi everyone,
I have a card today but first I wanted to share some news – I have stepped down from AAA Cards Challenge. I had some wonderful times with the ladies there over the years, but it has become time for me to move on, although I will hopefully find time to play now and again.
My card today features the gorgeous Always Cherry Blossoms by The Ton, including the sentiment. I stamped it on Simon Says Stamp Lemon Chiffon cardstock in Versamark ink, and heat embossed with Hero Arts white embossing powder. I coloured in the blooms with a pinky-purple Spectrum Noir Sparkle Pen, and used my Faber Castell Polychromos to add dimension.
For finishing touches, I added some Nuvo Drops in Glossy Dark Walnut and outlined the image with a Versamark marker to add shadow. I backed it using double sided tape to a Neenah Solar White 110lb cardbase.
I’m entering this card into the Less Is More Challenge ‘Spring Walk’
and of course, The Ton’s monthly challenge!
Cherry Blossoms in April in Japan are one of my favourite experiences I’ve been lucky enough to enjoy 😀
Have a wonderful week and happy spring!

Jenny, your blog looks amazing. This blog layout is such a better way to feature your creations. The header is fantastic. I would love to hear all about this transition – and what perfect timing for it!! This card is so beautiful. I love the yellow background. The image is so beautiful and your coloring gets better and better all of the time.
Amazing colouring on the blossom Jenny! That lemon chiffon card looks super as a backdrop – really eye catching even though it is a subtle colour. A stunning and elegant design. Thanks so much for sharing this with us at Less is More xx
I love yellow and pink together! Beautiful spring creation that is perfect for our challenge at Inkspirational!
What a lovely card! The color on those flowers looks great and I like the white embossing on top that peach/pink card stock. Thanks for sharing with us at Inkspirational!
