Japanese Kingfisher


This has been made for the Friday Sketchers Challenge #37

The kingfisher is from Dover Publications '120 Japanese Prints' CD-Rom & Book and the backing papers were made on PSP from the original image as were the plain blue and brown papers. I had some rather unpleasant yellow ribbon in my stash which I coloured with a Copic marker to match the card  and the other embellishments were 3 little Papermania brads and a metallic turquoise tassel also from my stash

    Beautifully colour co-ordinated. It's a lovely card. Who needs to stamp? Oops, did I say that?
