Sakuras!

For lack of better name, our next image  is referred to as the Sakura set.  I know its a bit confusing, but you will get 4 different Sakura images in three different sizes for a total of 12 sakura images!  Plus you will get three peach images in three different sizes!  All 15 images in one set!  Yes, the set is pretty large but I wanted to offer up some variety of background images and couldn't decide which sakura was better than the next, so I gave you all the images my sister sent me.  Hopefully you will find this set useful and fun to use with all of our images!  I couldn't make a sample using all of the different images, so I thought I'd re-post the banner so you can see them up close.




In addition to the standard sakura image, my sister also drew two sakura designs with some dimension and one that is a solid image in case you want to stamp the whole image in color.

Here's one of the cards I made using the standard sakura image.  all I did was stamp random images in different sizes in light pink. Then I used my blender tool and added some Spun Sugar around the edges so it blended.  I liked the effect this gave to the background.


Then I stamped the sentiment by Hero Arts.  The card was still missing something, so I added in some mini crystals to the center of the larger sakuras.  This card should show you the size difference in the sakuras.


Do you want a chance to win this sakura set?  If so here's all you gotta do:

  18. LOVE, LOVE these stamps!!!! Okay, maybe I need another sakura stamp like a puka in my head, but these sakura stamps are like nothing I've seen before....most of the sakura stamps only are of the blossoms straight on, but I just love that Denise drew these from different angles so they really look like they're falling...so COOL! Perfect for fancy borders or backgrounds on any project....thank you!!!!
