We have a great challenge at Sweet Stampin' Challenge - Choose a Country - (be inspired by the colours of the flag, the culture, the food.... the world is literally your oyster!)
I chose Japan for my country and was inspired by Cherry Blossom and Geishas
My Cherry Blossoms are Spellbinders Layered Cherry Blossom dies cut from some off-white card and using some Altenew inks (Dried Petals Fresh Dye ink set) to do a little ink blending in the centres. I used some kraft card for the branches. I used the same off white card to cut a panel and used Spellbinders Hemstitch Rectangles. My little Geisha is an ancient (circa 2009) Hero Arts stamps - Four Dolls. I used some of the Altenew pink inks to paint her and her matching fan, which I had fussy cut. The little sentiment is from a Catherine Pooler set - Birds of a Feather.
Do come and join us at Sweet Stampin' Challenge.
