This really was a challenge! But I like a challenge…. I do, really…….
This fortnight’s challenge at The Male Room is to make a masculine project with an “Oriental” feel.
Mmmmm…… I found some oriental rice papers at a local craft market and bought a sheet in these lovely colours, perfect for a masculine card. And because the colours are so lovely and vibrant, I thought it would be nice to keep the rest of the card clean, simple and just black and white.
I have used the stamp set called In The Meadow, with black Memento ink, a strip of red cardstock and some Gold Cording Trim, and that is pretty much it! Quick and easy!
I wonder what the rest of the Design Team have done with this one? You can have a look here.
Happy stamping!

PS. Sorry about the photo, we have had so much rain and heaps of stormy weather that it has been quite difficult to find a spot and the right light to get a decent photo. Typical Australian summer!! 🙂

This is super Oriental. I had thought of using Japanese origami paper too, but just couldn’t find it! Love the mountains, great idea to keep them monotone.
