Happy Wednesday!  If you have been keeping up with Mary and Amy it looks as if they are having loads of fun, and special treats to eat.  They well deserve this fun trip.

The card I am sharing today is created using the Stampin’ Up! Forever Blossoms Stamp Set.  It is a carryover to the 2021-2022 Annual Catalog.  I also use Love You Always DSP, Stitched So Sweetly Dies, Meadow Moments Embossing Folder along the the card stock.

My color inspiration comes from the Hand Stamped Sentiments Challenge.  I have pink cherry blossoms.

The theme for Make My Monday Challenge is Sympathy.  I have made one with the greeting Thinking of You and a lovely sentiment inside.

This will be a fun challenge as it is a fun fold card challenge — Creative Creases Challenge.

The card base is Sahara Sand card stock.  This is a fun fold card so there are two score lines to fold. On the front panel, a panel of Blushing Bride card stock is embossed using the Meadow Moments Embossing Folder, then adhered to the panel using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.  Two different design panels from Love You Always DSP is adhered to the card base.  You can see from the card above where the DSP is adhered.

Using the Stitched So Sweetly Dies two different size panels are cropped using two of the dies.  I believe it is the largest and next to the largest.  One is from Sahara Sand card stock the other Basic White card stock and this one has the sentiment stamped in Tuxedo Memento Black ink. 

Cherry blossoms are also stamped in the corner and colored using Rococo Rose and Mint Macaron  Stampin’ Blends Markers, along with the color lifter marker.  Mine was a bit dry, so I poured a little alcohol in a glass cup and dipped the marker in it then dropped the alcohol on the images of the cherries to get the color I desired.

A loopy bow is made using Basic White twine and popped on one of the flowers stems using Multipurpose Glue  Several sequins are placed around the entire card.

Cherry blossoms are also stamped on the panel of Basic White card stock that is adhered to the back panel.  They are colored with the same markers as the other blossoms.

A medium Basic White envelope gets a panel of  Love You Always DSP applied to the envelope flap.

If you would like to create this card all the products used and the card cuts are at the end of this post.
