Asian Influenced Card

Here is a card that I recently submitted to CS Designs as Guest Designer for September.  It is another Asian card.  This is a card that was created with a classic style in mind.  The image is Framed Geisha 2 by CS Design.  She is colored with Copic markers.  The image is placed on a background of designer cardstock on which I did a technique call Cuttlebug Highlight using an embossing folder and gold ink.  As an added embellishment, I included a scroll made with a Spellbinder diecut.  Small thin corners of gold foil add a final touch.

I am submitting this in Crafty Boots' "Anything Goes" challenge.

    Love it, Vicki, it is awesome. Everything is lovely including the flourish at the bottom. Love the greens and blues and distressed backing paper.

    PS: Like your blog template as well - you know me and florishes and distressed backgrounds go really well together... lol.
