The latest in my long-running series of koi- carp themed cards! That's because it is my partner's parents' big hobby and this is a birthday card for his step-father.
I used some watercolour paper I'd attempted a background technique on, stamped and gold-embossed the fish (Sheena Douglass) on it , and cut it out. For the background , I used a Chinese script stamp by Oyster stamps.
I'd like to enter:

What a gorgeous CAS design! I love your card. It is absolutely perfect. Nicely CAs and yet elegant and impressive. Thank you so much for joining our challenge at ATSM this week. Please come again and play with us! Creative regards from stempelfrida
That's what I love about a handmade card, it can be tailor made to fit the recipients perfectly. I think the layout is brilliant, the placement of the Chinese text is so clever and the golden carpe looks fantastic. Well done!
Fab creation, thanks for joining Allsorts challenge, good luck.
Happy crafting
