Jenni's Crafty Journal: a taste of the Orient

Our new challenge over at Cardmadfairy's Digi Days is a Taste of the Orient and I've added a few new designs to the Digi Stamp Shop including the one I've used for the card I have to share today. The lanterns were coloured with Promarkers and Sakura Gold pens and cut out individually and then 'hung' from a piece of satin cord. The sentiment was printed out from my iMac and the strip of dp I've used is by Dovecraft.

I'd like to enter my card for the following challenges
Scrapbook Sisters - Anything goes
Everybody-Art-Challenge - Anything goes
Clear It Out! - CAS
Gingerloft - Asian Inspiration
Crazy 4 Challenges - Add Twine, Floss, String etc to project
Inspire Me Fridays - Always anything goes
4 Crafty Chicks - Clean & simple (no more than 2 layers)
Dutch Dare Card Challenge - Clean & simple
Moving Along With The Times - Clean & simple

I also made another card as a sample for the new images, this image (Li-Ann) is my favourite from the latest batch and I wanted to colour her again - she does colour up beautifully with my favourite Letraset Promarkers even if I do say so myself!

Entering this one for:
Rainbow Lady's - Use a digi
Amber's Crafts and Stuff - Summer
Crafting for all Seasons - Summer
Fab 'n' Funky - Summer Lovin'
I Love Promarkers - Anything goes
