Red Geisha


Here is my card for this weeks Secret Crafter Challenge of White and one other colour not encluding the image. I like Oriental designs a lot but I don't do as many as I would like to.

The tree is a Sweet Poppy stencil and black embossing paste with a little bit of glitter thrown in.

The Geisha is stamped and coloured with Tria alchohol pens. Then I have cut here out and popped her on the card. The Card base and layers are cut out with large dies, I have used a punch just to decorate the corners of the picture and a bow to finish it off.

I have also entered this card into the following challenges;
Make it Monday - Anything Goes
Delightful Sketches - Autumn Colours
Prairie Fairy - Suger and Spice
The Artistic Stamper - Autumn Colours
Marianne Design Divas - Dying to Die Cut
Cute Card Thursday - Tree-mendous

  5. Completely unique and gorgeous! Truly admire the black and white detail and then the pop of color to her dress. How you've displayed her is amazing as well. Love the layering of the dies and then the final touch of elegant ribbon. Nicely done. :D
