If I’m sending a card out now, and it has a flowering tree branch on it, probably supposed to be cherry blossom branch I assume.
Would you make the flowers pink as probably intended? Or pick a fallish color?
I mean I’m not using it as a cherry blossom branch per se, I just need something for the sloth to hang on. It’s a baby sprinkle card so not fall related.
What say the peas?

Awwww, a sloth! Sloths live year round, I'd go for no leaves.

I doubt I would choose fall colors. Probably something pastel just because my head goes in direction for little babies.

First of all, what is a ‘baby sprinkle’? And is the baby a boy or girl (or do we not know?)
My first thought is to use pink blossoms, because I like pink more than drab fall colours. However, if the baby is a boy or unknown gender, I think I’d use fall colours. Or a mix of pink and blue, maybe green and yellow too.

A shower is held for a first baby, and a sprinkle for subsequent babies. Generally the family has all the bigger items they need so the gifts are smaller/fewer, but it’s a way to celebrate the new baby with clothes, diapers etc.

However, if the baby is a boy or unknown gender, I think I’d use fall colours. Or a mix of pink and blue, maybe green and yellow too. It’s like an informal mini shower for someone who has already had one or more kids. Usually people bring a small gift for the new baby such as an outfit or a blanket vs, the bigger things people typically give for a first kid. It’s basically so the new baby can have a few nice, brand new things (since he or she will likely be outfitted in mostly hand me downs) unique to them, especially if the baby is a different gender than the previous kid. ETA: If the baby is going to be a girl I would do the tree with pink blossoms. If the baby is going to be a boy, I might opt for more neutral colors.

I'd make the leaves/flowers greenish. They like green stuff. We were just in Costa Rica and our hotel had 6 of them just lounging around. So dang cute.
If you know what the nursery looks like, maybe lean towards those colors.

I would not do flowers in fall colors because that doesn't make sense to me. Leaves in fall colors would make sense but flowers should be light/bright flower colors like pinks, purples, yellows.

Don’t know baby gender I went with shades of peach to almost yellow. Quoted and posted by mistake… since I’m here, do you have a picture? My result-avoidance brain has melded quite an autumnal colored cherry blossom sloth card!
