I was having crafting withdrawel symptoms this morning and stood and made these two cards.

The card is Kanbans Oriental dragon (green one) and Oriental Blossom (pink one) with matching trim, the fish are some peel offs that I adore and have in my stash which I have layered onto some sheets OH got me aaages ago, they are peelable (so can cut your own stickers etc).  I used a red glitter effet on that has the effect of scales almost.  Reminded me of the effect of a Koi’s scales when they catch the light and shimmer

I have purposely kept them simple so the glitter backing on the fish stand out..

Like how they turned out, something a little different.

Thanks for looking
