I decided to make mine CAS and do some branches/blooms from the side of the card. I think I added one leaf because I think the leaves come on the trees after the blooms. Just did blooms and a few buds. Added my sentiment and it is finished.

Very pretty Brenda - and I had forgotten the fact that the leaves don't set on till most of the blooms fall off. You get extra cookies for realism (and remembering!) I had hoped to leave more white space on mine too, but as usual got carried away . . . . I like the way you did the tiniest buds wrapping the lower edges with green - Really nicely done.

Awesome in design, water coloring is amazing. Gorgeous artistry! (yes, flowers 1st, than leaves). Love the simple black matting and perfect stamped greeting.

I love your cheery optimism, Brenda, and I also love your beautiful cherry blossoms. I don’t think I knew that about the leaves but the trees certainly seem devoid of green when they are prolific with blossoms.
