A Little Le Suh Decoupage

Hello all in the land of blog
A little while ago I spotted a fabulous creation by Karin, the piece just shouted fabulous, and just perfect for some cards that my sister had asked me to create with an African feel to them, for the little shop to sell near her in Zanzibar.

I asked Karin where and what they were and she very generously told me they were Le Suh decoupage, I did some internet browsing and then ordered some of their books.

Here is one of many to follow which I will be sending to my sister for the shop
This is an any occasion card with a blank inside for the person who buys to write what they want on.
The papers are from 7 Gypsies and the punch is the MS daisy small.  The ribbon from stash tied in a single bow.  I have avoided the pearls etc, as these may come off travelling but also in the heat there.

Thank you Karin, enjoyed this different style of card making.

I would like to thank all of my wonderful visitors who take the time to comment on my work and allow me to hop over to visit you in return.

I would like to enter this creation into the following challenges

The Pink Elephant - Anything Goes
Truly Madly Crafty - Anything Goes
UnstampaBelles - Anything Goes
Creative Inspirations Paint - Something New
Paper Sundaes - Something Old (DP) Something New (decoupage)
The Squirrel and The Fox - Something New

Hope you enjoy Your Day, even if you are back at work 
(I have another week off yet, so will be doing some work homework and you guessed it some crafting)
Hugs
Kate
