Hello friends - thanks so much for stopping by! I am delighted to be sharing a card created using the the Spellbinders Destination China Collection by Lene Lok. I have kept to the more traditional colours of black, red and gold but am going to play around using other colours too - these detailed dies are adorable with so much potential.
'From detailed frames to intricate accents to beautiful lanterns, Destination China Collection by Lene Lok is a wonderful grouping of Asian inspired elements to bring an exotic flair to your projects.' -Spellbinders
1.Cut/emboss one Etched Lanterns #1 using cream card stock.
2.Adhere red patterned paper to the main part of the lantern, trim and glue together.
