Chinese New Year Card

This year, the Chinese new year is on the 3rd of February.  I made this little card to celebrate and join in the festivities in the year of the rabbit.



I made this card using Tim Holtz distressing inks from Ranger - Broken China and Peeled Paint. Also used the resist embossing technique to draw to make the embossed images POP!

I took inspiration from oriental wall hangings such as the one below,

where multiple panels are hung together to reveal a story. This worked beautifully on this card, don't ya think?

Finally added Text that says "Happy New Year" in Mandarin. The papers I used are Eastern Promise by Dovecraft.

Do let me know what you think. I've entered this card in the Cardmaking and Papercraft challenge.

Till next time,

Walter wants to sleep!

I made this cute card for my brother, who is always the last to come out into the cold and play. He loves lying in bed into the late hours of the morning.



The stamp is Walter in a Pom Pom hat.  Get it here. The sketch is from a card making and paper craft challenge. Check it out here.
Hope you liked it. Till next time!
