Good morning.....sorry I am a bit late again. I didn't oversleep this time. The computer had some updates to complete when I turned it on and it has taken forever for them to finish.
Anyhow my challenge to you this week is to make a card with an Oriental theme.
I hadn't done any cards in this style for some time and really fancied doing one.
I have used a TandaStamps image over an alcohol ink background for the main image and layered this over some contrasting papers.
The corners of the card have been shaped by adding a peeloff the opposite way to how it would normally be applied and then I cut around it with a craft knife. I think it looks quite effective.
Looking forward to seeing all of your cards so if you do join in leave a link to your work in the comments and we will all come and admire and leave lovely comments.
Happy Crafting
