I made this for today's technique challenge - Blintz Fold. It took me a few trys before I got it right... This card took me almost 4 hours to make :(
And I'm not sure if I like it??
Main image was coloured with prisma colour pencil crayons and gamsol, then I water coloured over the green again with sage shadow to try and get the colour closer to the dp. I stamped the image on the tan coloured dp and then twice more on whisper white. Cut out the circle and another set of wings. Popped them up for a 3d effect. Stamped the sentiment on dp, cut out circle with nesty, punched out a 1 1/2" black square and folded it around the sentiment. Added the square brads and round brads. And then it was finally finished....

Oh my goodness, I LOVE this incredibly beautiful card. I love the centre piece with the fabulous image, the Asian feel of this card and the tag is so awesome.

4 hours? Yikes? It would have taken me 7.75 hours if I even attempted to create such a card! It's gorgeous, so sit back and say to yourself, "Patricia, I done good today, if I say so myself". Totally beautiful.

Oh dear!!! I hate it too when I've spent a long time on something I don't really like!!! I like your card very, very much. I love the papers, the Oriental style and the centre panel is superb.
