This is for the inspiration Challenge for the China Online Museum and for a previous Color Challenge. No dessert this time. When I saw this plum-blossom painting on the museum site, I thought of this blossom branch stamp. http://www.comuseum.com/product/zhan...oms-in-spring/
The colors in the painting reminded me of a recent color challenge: Strawberry Slush, Mint Macaron, and Early Espresso.
I thought the Bamboo background stamp would make a good backdrop for the Asian theme. It is embossed in white on the Mint Macaron cardstock. I inked up the stamp using markers. I accented the flowers with pearls. The panel is raised up on the card base. Two lovely challenges. TFL

What a gorgeous card. I love how you took your inspiration and created such a warm and peaceful card. Your bg done in EP is exceptional. Now this is what I call Asian.
