Lanterns - We have a new challenge up at Crafts 4 Eternity and Alphabet Challenge Blog.
At Crafts 4 Eternity our challenge is Oriental Theme. This is Chinese New Year time and the animal for this year is the horse. I think it is odd that we call it Chinese New Year, but all Asian countries also celebrate it at the same time.
We have lived in Japan and South Korea and it is really a big deal over there, especially in South Korea. My daughter, whom we adopted from South Korea, really likes the customs that go along with this holiday with her Korean in-laws. They bow to the parents, who then give them money. My husband teases her that he will give her a dollar if she bows to him. Jennifer doesn't think it is as funny as he does.
The challenge at Alphabet Challenge Blog is Z for Zesty colors. We are to use citrus colors. Now you know why I have Chinese lanterns in orange and yellow.
I don't know who makes the stamp. It has been in my stash forever. I don't know if I have ever even used it before.
The bling at the bottom is frosted pearls that I got from my friend over at Pizzazz Aplenty. She has awesome prices on her lovely crafty goodies.
