Crowned Crane Deco - Repeat Impressions' SOTW

This week Repeat Impression's Stamp of the Week is this lovely Crowned Crane Deco image.  RI is offering its blog readers 50% off of the retail price of this stamp this week.  You can get the coupon code from the RI blog - The House That Stamps Built.  While you are there, check out what the other DT members created with this image!  And there is still time to enter the What If Wednesday sketch challenge for a chance to win a $25 gift certificate to Repeat Impressions.
I stamped the Crane image with Versafine Onyx Black ink onto a piece of Kraft card stock.  This image has both a negative and positive Crane image.  I colored both with water color pencils and and aquabrush.  I had some beautiful Asian paper (don't remember the name - it got cut off) that went perfectly with this image.  I used a Cuttlebug Embossing folder form the Asian Bundle for the top of the card.
Thanks for coming by!

    Ok! I would just like to share that you are such an "enabler" with this card! Haha... the second I saw it in the Yahoo groups, I instantly fell in love with the embossing! That background looks amazing... So I just had to get online and look for that embossing folder. I couldn't find it by itself, so I actually ended up ordering a pack of three! Haha!... Such a great card! You put everything together so nicely! Very well done!
