a note for you

 hello lovely stampers!

I've always wanted to go to Japan to see sakura - the cherry blossom trees in full bloom. From March to early May the cherry trees bloom from one end of the country to the other with a fleeting glimpse of swathes of beautiful blossoms on a backdrop of awe inspiring scenery. I will get there...one day!

The team at perfectlyCAS have as their theme this month: Flowers so I couldn't resist going with this image.

I die cut the mountain using Sizzix thinlits 664445 die set from an ink blended scrap of card. The cherry blossoms are stamped and die cut using Altenew Under the Cherry Blossom Tree sets with Altenew inks. I wanted "Mt Fuji" to form the backdrop with the flowers as the focus, so the blossoms are popped up on foam tape for dimension. The sentiment is from the same stamp set, stamped directly on the card front with the same ink colour.

Thanks for stopping by!
