F4A111 Fortunate Dragon
Added to Favorite

Photo Details
Poster: peeps321

 I don't know if I've ever made a Chinese collage before but I would have to say this one qualifies. I do have a pretty good collection of Asian stamps and yes, a dragon was among them. I got to break out some San Francisco Chinatown finds of joss paper (bamboo paper that is burned on special occasions to commemorate the dead..it's the gold and red background on my card)) and New Year's envelopes (the darker red on the very bottom of my card). I also used shiny origami paper behind my red dragon.

This card has such a Chinese feel to it with the bright reds, the busy feel of all of the layers and things to look at. I feel like I am in Chinatown in San Francisco!

FAB Chinese collage! Looks similar to authentic packaging I've seen in the many Oriental markets I've visited. Nice card, great work!
