I used one layer of white cardstock with a strip of rubber band stamping, with golden heat embossing.
The lady in the frame is from an old decoupage sheet, cut by hand into several layers and made 3D.
The sentiment is from Craft sensations.
For further embellishments I added a few rhinestones, an elastic golden band with a fan charm, attached with organza ribbon.

Wow this is beautiful. I love anything to do with Japan. Your gold embossed rubber band panel looks so effective and goes well with the image. TFS. Happy day

Very unique and very pretty! Your rubber band stamping suggests Kanji (which most likely was intentional, I'm guessing) and looks amazing embossed in gold. Beautiful card...
