Hi everyone and welcome to the next CAS challenge...color blocking!
For my card, I opted to use paper to do the color blocking. This is Kraft Core Core-dinations paper (aren't those colors great?!) that have been embossed with a Spellbinders embossing folder.
The cute laterns are from the new Bird Song stamps from Graphic 45. They've been colored with Copics. And the sentiment is from Sweet 'n Sassy!
Thanks so much for stopping by for a visit and why not try your hand at this week's technique!
Supplies: Bird Song stamps, Core-dinations paper, Copics - all from eclectic Paperie
Sentiment Stamp: Sweet 'n Sassy

Great design Kim. I love the rich colors of that cardstock - reminds me of Purely Pomegranate from Stampin Up (my all time favorite!!). The lanterns are beautiful.

The colors are great, Kim. So perfect for an Asian theme. Love how you sanded the embossed paper, too. Very rattan and rice paper feel to this. I don't know much Japanese, so I'll just say Arigato and hope it fits.
