I coloured the Cherry Blossom using water-colour brush and reinkers of the following colours; Pink Pirouette and Lucky Limeade. I went over using Prismacolor pencils just to make them a bit brighter. I added some small basic pearls in the centre of the flowers. I cut the flower out using Spellbinders 'Wonky Rectangles'.
