QFTD141 Asian

Photo Details

Poster: stamp300

Congratulations Crafty Julia for being Queen For The Day. I chose this great Asian card as my inspiration.
DTGD11 Geisha with Tulips by Crafty Julia at Splitcoaststampers

Things I changed: Heat embossed, added panel & changed colors

I tried a couple different ways, I hope this works as far as color goes. This will be mailed tomorrow to my best friend's mother as my friend passed away 3 yrs ago & she gave me this stamp.

Enjoy your day Julia

So thoughtful of you...
I especially like the way you finished off the elegant, fancy border.

Oh, dear, so sorry for the loss of your best friend. That must have been so hard to say goodbye. What a nice way to honor her by using a stamp she gave to you. This lady looks so beautiful all done in gold-love it!

Connie, this card is lovely! I really like the origami cranes in the bg, highlighting the Japanese theme of this card. This is a thoughtful gift for your best friend's mother and a wonderful way to honour your friend.
