I was telling my friend Samara that I think I have done myself in with all the holiday yummies. I think the up and down sugar buzzes have zapped my crafting energy. Good thing I made this ahead of time. LOL
Our challenge this week at Papercraft Star is "Tea or Coffee". I won some digis a while back from Cardmadfairy and I picked out this beautiful geisha. She's colored with Copics. I printed her fan out on vellum and colored it with Copics also. She has a piece of torn mulberry paper under her. The cool oriental writing is one of three images I used from the Oriental Backgrounds (112) digital sheet from our sponsor, The House Across the Bay. I didn't have anything to hang the tag from in my light box so I hung it on my Christmas tree so you could see the tassle I added at the bottom. You have to look closely cause it didn't photograph well with the lighting.
The back of the tag has a large mat of more of the oriental writing from the digital sheet. I added two pockets for tea bags and printed the third image to decorate the top pocket.
Here's a close up shot of the little geisha so you can see her fan better. Hope you can play along this week. :-)

So lovely! Did you know that I read Chinese and it says, "I'm glad my fan hides the fact that I'm fast asleep because I'm worn out from all my Christmas festivities!" So appropriate, Tracy! lol Is that herb tea? Or does it have lots of caffeine in it? :o)
