Moon Bathing

Hi Everyone,

I haven't posted this week because I have been so busy and haven't really had time to stamp. I did make this card, a bit at a time though, and just finished it up tonight. I have been going thru my stamps and there are so many I haven't even inked up yet! Yikes! I am going to try to use some of the things (stamps, papers, ribbons) that I have been hoarding, I think that is my stamping resolution for the year! lol

I have no idea who makes this Asian Lady stamp, but the Cherry Blossom is made by Rubber Stampede. I didn't want to do to much and take away from the lady, so I just stamped and embossed some Cherry Blossoms, and coloured them in with Copic Markers. I coloured the lady's skin and coloured the moon with the silver Spica Pen. I then stamped and embossed another lady, and coloured in her cloak with Copic markers, and went over the flowers and leaves with a clear Spica Pen. It adds such a nice soft touch. I then cut out the cloak including her hair, then layered it over top of the first image. I did colour a bit on the bottom layer as well, because in person the bottom of the cloak is lifted quite a bit and you can see a bit under the layer. The white layer was then layered onto a beautiful piece of black paper that is embossed. If you click to make the picture bigger, you will probably see the paper better.

Well, off to bed for me, I have the remainder of a First Aid course tomorrow for work, oh joy! It was a long and a bit boring day today! lol Hopefully tomorrow is more interesting!

Have a wonderful evening!
