The little fan is from KIMONO SU 2000. (I forgot to put that in my upload..sorry) It's part of the border stamp in that set. Just masked off the other part and inked up with versa mark and then gold EP. Then used my tiny scissors and the SU gold cord. It was too plain without a little color.
As a career Air Force wife I spent 3 years outside of Tokyo. The Asian stamps are always near and dear to my heart. We lived all over the States and also 3 years in Germany. But I don't see many stamps with a German influence.
Thanks for all of your wonderful comments.

This is a real beauty. The embossing is perfect for these images. Super card.
