The 4×4 Friday Challenge Blog have their new theme up and this week they are going Oriental
Great chance to use my Artful Stamper ‘Oriental Lady’ stamp.. which I love, but not used before!!
I’ve cut a 4×8 piece of plain cardstock, fold in half to make the 4×4 card, destressed the edges loads with whispers cherry red ink, and a little of black. Then stamped the chinese love stamp from All night Media twice.. again in cherry red.. and the oriental lady in jet black. Used my dymo labeler to write ‘Love’ and added ribbon, dragon charm and red sticky dots.
Love the end result.. and thanks for the challenge 🙂
