Hello, friends!
Svitlana here. I bet many of you are waiting for spring eagerly. And making spring cards can make this wait more bearable. I have one spring card idea to share with you today.
For my card, I used the Under the Cherry Blossom Tree Stamp Set and the set of coordinating dies. I created a wreath of cherry tree branches on my card.
I started off by making a card base out of a Parchment Cardstock. After that, I flicked some white paint onto it and put aside to let the paint dry.
Then I made 7 die-cuts of the same cherry tree branches out of a Solar White Cardstock. After which I stamped the branches onto the die-cuts. For each die-cut, I placed it into a negative space in the panel where one of the branches was cut out of, positioned a stamp layer and stamped it onto the die-cut. After that, I replaced the die-cut with another one and stamped again. I did this until I stamped the stamp onto each die-cuts. I repeated the same for the two other layering stamps of this image.
For stamping, I used the Jet Black, Dark Chocolate and Coral Berry Crisp Dye Inks.
Next, I adhered the branches onto the card forming a wreath. I used five branches to form the wreath. And then I trimmed some parts of two other branches and tucked them here and there in different parts of the wreath to make it more “circle-ish”.
I white embossed a sentiment from the You Are Stamp Set onto a Jet Black Cardstock strip and popped it onto the card.
I finished off by adding several white crystals.
Have a wonderful day!

Very pretty
Totally agree, making spring cards is a great way to hurry the season along. Even though I love all seasons and the change I am so tired of the cold weather right now…
Gorgeous wreath!!
I think this is beautiful! Hurry Spring!
Gorgeous!
I just bought this set and this project I think I could give it a whirl! You are so creative and I love seeing your posts! This set reminded me of the cherry blossom trees in Washington, D. C. (I grew up in the area and it gives me fond memories). I hope to make several cards with this set before we get back to the area; I wanted to give them to my Mom for mother’s day. Thanks so much for sharing this!!!
It’s gorgeous!!
What a gorgeous spring card! The wreath of cherry blossoms just says spring! The white and pink look so nice on the parchment card stock. Love your cards Svitlana.
Svitlana! This is perfect – I was just browsing yesterday, looking for more inspiration to use this specific stamp and die set in my collection. I love the Spring feeling of the design but was artistically stuck. Love the way you create “outside the box”. Beautiful card!
