I don't think anyone could top Cindy's sumo wrestler card. So I didn't even try to make one. I did take the Japanese theme and colors from the teapot. I tried to dye my white paper with blue ink to make it look like the white and blue on the teapot. I took the peach color and made my cherry blossoms. I made a refined little Japanese girl instead of a wrestler.
Auditor showed up today. My dh got mixed up on the dates. So I am posting this card on the sly. I got up really early to see if Cindy had posted the teapot. I did manage to get my card done before Mr. Auditor came. I will be back later to comment.
Everyone is welcome to come to the party. Just a warning it might get a little wild today. What am I saying. Might...???? Well just show up and see what happens.

This is so very pretty! I love the DP you created and the DP you used on the kimono.
Psssst... I don't think this lovely lady will get sushi on her cuz that Sumo Wrestler has taken a shine *full moon* to her. He'll be blocking any sushi!

Wonderful card, MariLynn! Love the flowers and the pretty Asian girl! Your dyed paper is beautiful! You always have such creative designs! Hope all went well with the auditor! If you are done, it's time to relax and have some tea and sushi!

Oh so lovely and refined! LOVE the dyed paper and the blossoms...they remind me of a beautiful Japanese screen! I think this beautiful lady is bashfully hiding her eyes and lowering her head because of all the nudity today...Violet whipped off her shawl, there is a donkey in a GRANNY PANTY THONG (there I said it AGAIN today), and Sumo Wrestlers galore!

Another Great card....wow...I am so impressed with the way you dyed the white paper and created that little beautiful Japanese girl. Being new to card making or at least to challanges like MMTPT ... I am getting such an education..!!!
I am inspired and stimulated also ... What do the poor ppl do that don't know about Splitcoast Gallery ... MMTPT51????????
