Asian Inspired ATCs

 Hello,

My LSS hosts a challenge every month for it's patrons, and May's theme is World Cultures.  I drew inspirations from my Chinese heritage: tea, bamboo, rice paper, and seal stone.  I created a set of ATCs with matching envelopes.

The background of the ATC was stamped with paint.  I used brayer to apply paint on the cling stamps.  Tea pot and cups stamped in black on pattern paper, and shadow added with Copic markers.  I hand-written the greeting on the tag ("wish you well").

The envelope I created using rice paper, and stamped with distress ink.  The seal stone was used to stamp my Chinese name on the front of the envelope.
