Japanese Scene

  7. What a cool card! I'm a sucker for just about anything in the Asian vein, so this is right up my alley. I love the stamp, but that background paper and mesh really calls to me. Great job!

  11. Great card, everything ties together and compliments perfectly. The yellow sun gives that little pop of colour. Thanks for joining us this month at Bizzy Becs for our "Anything Goes" challenge.
