Just thought I would share this little domino card I made for a friends birthday. This is her first birthday back in the UK after living in HongKong for the last 9 years , and as its Chinese New Year, I thought she might like it. Unfortunately, I didn't upload the piccys before I gave it to her and for some reason they wont upload round the right way!! as you can see they were the right way in photo gallery when I put the watermark on them.
I got my DH to drill 2 holes in the domino's before I used Alcohol inks, and stamped using an Oriental set of foam stamps - the first stamps I ever bought! The card was cut and folded, stamped and distressed with Tattered rose and Worn Lipstick.
I am entering this in Crafty Bloggers Network - Oriental
