I love seeing all the creative cherry blossom crafts in spring from fellow bloggers. We decided to get on the band wagon and made this handprint tree full of cherry blossoms. I love the mixtures of pink on the coffee filter and how they combine so well with the added pink tissue paper. Read below how simple it is to make.
