Time To Go Fishin'!

We have a fun theme at My Sheri Crafts...and it has everything to do with fishing!  The challenge is to create something with a fish on it.  I made an Asian-themed card using a Cuttlebug embossing folder for the central design.  I used paper from Graphic 45's Bird Song Collection, and cardstok from Bazzil.  I added Baker's Twine, a Chinese zodiac embellishment, and turquoise-colored gems from Queen & Co for the koi's eyes. 

Kung Hei Fat Choi!

....that's "May You Become Prosperous" in Cantonese, a popular greeting during the Chinese New Year. For this week's Asian theme project for My Sheri Crafts, I decided to make some coin envelopes, to spread prosperity around. I used my Gypsy and my Zooballoo cartridge. The dimensions are: height: 3" and width: 11". It is larger than your usual coin envelope, but I was thinking of being able to use them for mini albums as well. I used cardstock from DCWV which I embossed using embossing folders from Cuttlebug's Asian Bundle. The stamped images are Asian Characters from Inkadinkado, which I heat-embossed using Red Dragon embossing powder from Stamp 'n Stuff. I just added strips of washi paper to compete the design.
