Sakura photo widget
A sakura photo widget frames a favorite picture with a short caption. Cherry blossom pink on soft white with falling petals. This page gives the exact colors, type settings and layers, with a preview drawn from the same values.

What a sakura photo widget shows
A photo widget puts a person, place or pet on the home screen without making it the wallpaper. The frame, the crop and the caption decide whether it feels designed or just pasted in.
You pick the picture with Android's photo picker, so WidgetCraft needs no storage permission, and the photo stays on your phone. It is a free element.
How the sakura style shapes it
Sakura widgets borrow the colors of cherry blossom season: pale petal pink on a soft white ground, a dark bark brown for text and a deeper blossom accent, with drifting petals.
- Photos: Blossom branches, temples or spring skies with soft light.
- Text: Use bark brown for text; pure black is too harsh on the pale pink.

Tips for sakura photo widgets
- Scatter a few petals in one corner only.
- Add a touch of leaf green as the second accent.
- Choose a photo whose subject sits in the middle; widgets crop the edges.
- Portrait photos suit 2 × 2 or tall widgets better than wide ones.
- Very large images make widgets slow; let the app resize the photo when asked.
- Do not cover the content with petals.
- Do not use saturated hot pink.
