Farewell to Sky Blossom

This card makes me sad - I just used my very last small piece of "Sky Blossom" linen paper from Cristina Re.  I was at her store, Where a Girl Goes, last week, and I was told that this paper is DISCONTINUED!!!  This makes me very sad indeed :'(   Quite miserable.



Less is More has a challenge this week to make an aqua card - and this one fits the bill!    I will also be submitting it to The Paper Players Challenge to use a floral image, and Lilypad Cards for their patterned paper challenge :)
UPDATE 7/2/12: just this morning I found a couple of websites (thanks to a comment from Judith) and I've bought some more of this gorgeous paper!  Hooray!

    1. Unfortunately, I'm back to square 1 - the website I ordered the paper from emailed me to say that, actually, they don't have any of that paper after all. Rats.
