Lantern mounted onto PopDots for dimension. Small punched flower as 'blossoms', and one of the flowers cut up to make the 5 buds on some of the branches. White dimensional paint for flower centres.

I really love the simple elegance of this card and your idea to cut up one of the blossoms to make the buds is super. May I ask how you made the lantern?
BTW, I moved to Japan when I was 11 and spent two years there.

Thanks for all the nice comments. The lantern is a stamp by Impress (http://www.impressrubberstamps.com) which I've stamped in black first onto the card and then again onto the DP and cut out. Then mounted with foam tape over original stamped image. I have 3 or 4 of these lantern stamps, different shapes, from Impress. Love their stamps!
