I got to work with an asian inspired paper set called Oriental Chic! There are lots of beautiful paper in navy, burgundy, and neutral colors that are all perfectly coordinated. They have excellent quality double sided card stock with pretty patterns, and many of them have foil accents. There is also a matching sheet of journaling cards, and other pretty embellishments - like stickers and wood accents.
I cut this image from a 12 x 12" sheet of journaling cards, and accented it with a gold foil die cut and a little tassel I made from The Twiner Gold Shimmer Twine.
This little geisha girl (or maybe she is a kokeshi doll?) is one of the gold foil stickers. I adhered her to a wood embellishment. Some braided and knotted Twinery Solid Natural Twine makes a pretty accent.I used more of the stickers from the collection on this design. I used a window die cut and placed the foil stickers behind the windows so they will peek through.
The foil accents are all through the collection and some Twinery Gold Shimmer Twine adds to the sparkle.
