Here is my card for Sabrina's TPT Tickle challenge which was to create something with an Asian flair. I didn't have much in the way of Asian fare so I used my Eastern Blooms set to create the middle background panel and fussy-cut three of the stamped flowers. I added some ? dp and a matted 24/7 Friends bird. The sentiment is from PTI.
THANKS for looking!

Eastern Blooms are definitely Asian! And so is the look of that bird in monochrome, just like some of the prints we always look at when we visit the Japanese Cultural Centre in Paris. Love all the blues, too, definitely very soothing and relaxing. Glad you got your card, those ones from my "keeper" box only go to the best homes ;-).

A wonderful collage of Asian fare, Gabby, especially the cherry blossoms and simple sentiment! I need to remember to use my cherry blossom stamps when mailing, yeah right!
