My card today
features the elegant Serenity Geisha from Simply B Stamps and is a special one made
for the lovely Katya for her birthday.
I wanted to do something
a bit special with this card so I made an easel card but cut the bottom of the
easel into a lotus shape. I used some
gold flecked rice paper to paper piece the lotus. To add to the Japanese theme I made a pair of
uchiwa (fans) from washi paper as a background for my image and also made some plum blossoms and other embellies from mizuhiki cord.
I finished off the embellies with some mulberry paper cherry blossoms.
As my card is for
a birthday (cue the birthday sentiment I printed and traced in gold) I am
entering my card in the current challenge at Fun with Shapes and More. I’ve used three different patterned washi
papers so I am also entering it in Crafty Catz’s current challenge. My whole card has a spring time feel and
cherry blossoms are spring bloomers so I’ve covered the twist over at Suzy Bee’s Bloomin’ Challenge so I’m linking my card there too.
