I have no idea how I came up with this one. The only thing I can think of is we need a need refrigerator. Must have had that in the back of my mind as I was trying to come up with something for this challenge.
Thanks Anne Dodd for the black mirror paper on top of stainless steel paper. Didnt think there's actually stainless steel paper out there, but trust me, they do.
Thanks also to Cap'n Canada, aka Debzi333, for this magnificent asian image.
This image was embossed with white opague EP.
Finished with silver mesh ribbon.
TFL Everyone!

Ooooh, the mysterious Asian woman! Or is she a geisha? What do I know? I only know sushi. This is striking. Love the black and stainless. You get that refrigerator, Anne, and put a great big gorgeous bow on the front of it like the one adorning this elegant beauty. Wonderfully done!

Anne, Anne, Anne, I would LOVE to see this stunner IRL. I bet that stainless steel paper looks SO, SO cool! The black mirror paper and the embossed image are dynamite. And, that bow just takes the cake Anne. You craft such original and beautiful cards and it's a pleasure to come visit your gallery.

Oh Anne this packs a wonderful sophisticated impact. The clean lines and striking colors are extraordinary. Now are we going for a stainless steel refrigerator or a black refrigerator??? Hummm-I can tell you I have a black one with a textured finish....I just love it as it shows NO FINGERPRINTS!!! So easy with all these men around here messing up my appliances. I have to go behind them fellars with paper towels and windex I tell ya!!! Superb card this week Anne!! Great job with the sketch this week. Thank you so much for playing along with us at the Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge.
Bear Hugs,

Ohhh la la madame Ryan!! What a lovely asian card!! I must say that the embossed white against the black is most striking! Very striking layout!!! Beautifully tied bow!! I confess - I am bow challenged!! Just last night, I was trying to tie a bow - and well - I gave up!!! I have a bow easy which I just unearthed yesterday -but I have no idea how use my bow easy as yet.
May I send you all of my cards that need a bow - and you will tie it for me and send it back??????? Thanks so much!! What a lovely service you provide!!!
