CAS Brighter Tomorrow Sympathy with Cherry Blossoms

This is for today's CLEAN AND SIMPLE CHALLENGE # 326 - Wildflowers. I finally used this die I have had for months now. I love it. I sponged all around the edges of the vanilla base.

The inside is stamped with a set of praying hands and "with Sympathy" on top of them. I used some extra pink flowers for the envelope corner. Hope you like it.

Brighter Tomorrow Sympathy

This is for today's WAYS TO USE IT CHALLENGE # 522 - Lucky Charms, I attempted to simulate a rainbow using this weeks colors. My layout is from Wednesday's SKETCH CHALLENGE # 531, my colors are from Tuesday's COLOR CHALLENGES # 521 - Lagoons of daffodils, strawberries and pears oh my. I used my acrylic block and inked it up with my markers then spritz and stamped for Monday's TECHNIQUE LOVERS CHALLENGE # 524 - Stamped Acrylic Block Background. I punched and embossed the Spellbinders cross die using a cola can then punched a hole in the top for the split ring and threaded some ribbon for Monday's CLEAN AND SIMPLE CHALLENGE # 315 - Ribbon. Wheh that raps up this week for me. I can not believe I made 2 cards in the midst of spring cleaning my stamp room.
