Craft Like An..........?


This is for this week's One Stop Craft Challenge.

I decided to go Oriental with a touch of Egypt (the pyramid!) for my entry to this challenge. I used a Wendy Stenton template for the base card.The image of the lady and the backing paper pattern for the pyramid itself are from Joanna Sheen's 'Oriental Dreams' CD . I made a black card tag for the image itself which I attached to the top of the pyramid with black cord and the whole thing is embellished with a tassel, also from Joanna Sheen, and some black oriental peel-offs from my stash which continue round the other sides and are out of sight, like the dark side of the moon.
