Simply Thanks

This card epitomizes the simple, clean lines of Asian influence.  I just couldn't bring myself to add too much frou-frou which, if you know me, is a very unusual thing!  My motto has always been "More is more!".  Or, as Mae West said, "Too much of a good thing is good".  ;-)

Once again, I colored on the stamp with the Stampin' Write Markers.  I'm having so much fun with this technique!  My poor Copic markers have been crying and pleading with me to use them once again, lol.  I will, when I get over the newness of this.
