I hardly ever get to use my asian stamps,
I'm not sure why but I guess they never matched anything I wanted to do
or a theme I had planned.
This card was actually a layout challenge I decided to enter.
After digging through my stamp sets I decided to give
this "Stampin'Up!" set called "Dream Gardens" a try.
Well what do you think?
The little fan is actually a gold painted doily cut in half and folded.
And can you guess what the chopsticks are made from...
... toothpicks with beads glued to the ends.
My little flower pot on our back deck is doing surprisingly great this year
despite the high heat and hardly any rain.
i think the card is lovely, very creative!!
ReplyDeleteand i really like you potted plant, and the beautiful trellis behind it!!
Thanks Debbie. It's been a struggle to keep our plants alive this year.
DeleteThanks for stopping in!

Diane,
ReplyDeleteThis is very pretty!I like the folded doily fan and the chopsticks (so clever!) It's funny because I have a few Asian stamps and haven't used them in a long time either. You flowers are pretty too. I know it's been a struggle for them this summer with the heat.
Hugs,
Kristi
