This is my submission for Beate's weekend sketch challenge #48. It also fits TLC168, emboss and watercolor.
I embossed the images in copper ep over VersaMark. I watercolored with SU! Markers and blender pens. I lightly sponged Creamy Caramel on the Very Vanilla Panels. I ran Really Rust through my Cuttlebug with the Textile Folder. I cut out the fan and adhered to the other image to make it flow as one, and layered it on top of the cuttlebugged layer.
Although the Asian theme is something I've never done before, this sketch was a lot of fun and I will definitly use it again. Thanks Beate!

Friends are like the walls of a house. Sometimes they hold you up, sometimes you lean on them. But sometimes, it's enough to know they're just standing by.
