I made this card for Michelle's VSN Challenge, to use newsprint on your card. I've been holding on to this Chinese newspaper for ages, so I decided I'd photocopy it onto cardstock and use that. I'm not sure if I like how it turned out ~ kinda weird looking and I don't like the jagged angles. But it was fun anyway and there wasn't much I could do to fix it in the 45-minute time limit. Now I'm off to the next challenge!

Fix what, girl? There's nothing to fix! This is wonderfully creative and the colors are so unique to the typical asian theme. As an asian afficianado wanna b, let me just assure you this is one wonderfully created card! Fab colors and designs. How creative to photocopy your newspaper!

I dig the angles and edges! That newspaper is awesome. I've always love Asian inspired cards and stamps and yours turned out fabulously! Thanks so much for trying the challenge, Kath!
