WT419, " for Terri "

Photo Details

Poster: wendy2512

I needed a card for a good friend at work. she is japanese and she has been helping me learn some basic words. It is her b-day and so wanted to make her a pretty geisha girl style card. Loved this picture i found on the computer. It works perfect for today's challenge. Join us.
Her fav. color I think is red so went with that. and folded alittle fan and added a piece of old jewelery to that like a handle.
I sponged the edge of the picture added the layers, gems, fan and jewelery. Like how it turned out.
Thanks for visiting...:0)

Really beautiful elements to go with your contemporary Asian lady, Wendy. Wonderful colors and patterns and the fan with the dangling charm and chain is exquisite.
