This card is inspired by 2 things:
1. The cherry trees that we've seen in bloom here the last week or so...and believe it or not, today it is snowing! This CA weather sure is different than anywhere I've ever lived!
2. Splitcoaststampers Inspiration Challenge - IC272 - beautiful wall decals found here: http://www.walltat.com/Wall-Decals-B...rf-%201.45.htm.
I stamped and heat embossed the tree with chocolate chip and added the blossoms with acrylic paint on the tip of a make-up applicator.

Oh wow - your acrylic blossoms are fantastic. I thought it was some ultra-fine flower soft, or flocking or something like that. So soft and pretty and springlike.
Snow - yikes!!

I love this tree and the way you've used it in this beautiful design. I live in Southern CA and we just had an earthquake on top of cold, rainy weather. It sure has been a weird winter for us.
