Forever Blossoms

Sunday 26 January 2020

This week I'm featuring the Forever Blossoms Bundle from the Stampin' Up! Mini Catalogue.  I love spring and on the West Coast we're lucky to have a lot of Japanese Cherry Trees that blossom so this bundle is perfect!  

I used the Parisian Blossoms Specialty Designer Series Paper on this card - and accented the champagne foil with a border of champagne foil.
