Chinese Lanterns

Autumn colors is the challenge this month at Lavinia stamps. I choose yellow, orange and green.



I stamped the Chinese Lanterns in black and colored them with Copics. I put glossy accetns on the lanterns and let it dry. Then  I sponged around the lanterns after masking  off a square. All it need now is a sentiment, which it will get depending on the occasion I'll use it for...I hope you like it. Its pretty late now - I wish you all a good night!

This is fabulous, Cornelia! Love those Chinese lanterns. Reminds me of my Mom, as for years she would grow them wherever we lived. :-)

Dynamic Duos combined with CAS Colours and Sketches

I am getting the hang of combining challenges....not sure if that's good or bad...

Well, I'll see how it goes....                           Anyhow here is the card that came out of this: I did not want to add a sentiment - I 'll add it later, when I know who will get it.
