In addition, I chose her favorite color combination of red/white/black. I stamped the card base with two different stamps -- the bamboo stalks and the Japanese lantern -- and colored them with pale Memento markers. I stamped the Hero Arts collage onto white and then matted it in red and black. For a little interest, I added the oriental coin at the corner. If you'd like to play along with the CCEEers, stop by our blog. We'd love to have you join us.

It is beautiful; good job with limited supplies!
That's certainly international - and you've got all those little Chinese characters, too. Now I wish I'd thought of Asian, I have so many stamps. Love the light, airy feel to this.
Great idea with the stamps you had. This reminds me that I have a Japanese lantern stamp...never thought of it. Duh Your card turned out very pretty and airy.
Just beautiful. I love the soft colors along with Jo's favorite colors. It really makes the images stand out.
For a gal with few international stamps, this is hitting the nail on the head!! What a lovely Asian card, Lois. And thanks from me too for the RED/B/W color combo!
How PRETTY is this Lois
