It was a fun challenge Wendy set today. I gave a bit of time to think about it, and decided that Asian usually looks good in monochrome. But man, that one colour of ink only was a real sticker! Nothing else for sponging edges - help!
A2 card, green Bazzill, black paper, cream card.
StazOn Timber Brown.
Background layer is RubberNecker's bamboo background. The stamp from Asian Artistry was stamped onto a Sizzix tag. All the cream card edges were distressed. I added some Mizuhiki cord through the tag, and a little Chinese character from a Kodomo set.
I want to add gold, and green shimmer, but this is it for the challenge.

Silly girl, there's nothing 'almost' asian about your card. I think it's spectacular. It speaks to serentity and peacefulness. I think it's fabulous, just as fabulous as the birthday card you sent. You are just such a talented stamper, Sabrina. Thank you for your thoughtfulness. You are so much better at that than I am.
