Good morning my Crafty friends
I am sharing my design team makes for http://www.crafterscompanion.co.uk/ with you this morning which are from the Kimono range. When I received my parcel with this range in it my mind was all a whirl with idea's. This is so beautiful,the luxury paper pad, "with emphasis on LUXURY" is the most beautiful papers and some have been glittered with encapsulated glitter, so no shedding, YAY! 
As you will no doubt guess my favourite die was the peacock,how stunning he is! I could have made card after card,I had so many idea's but for now I was asked for two designs and these are what I came up with. And what can I say about the stunning embossing folders...... well although I only used one on these samples,they are all superb and a must have,if I hadn't received these to work with I would have had to add them to my collection. 

This first card idea was the first to pop into my head as soon as I saw this collection,it is what I think is typically Japanese,and the stick pins I used for the posts worked really well I think.

The second card is something else that to me says Japanese and that is fans. I love love love the backing paper from the pad and the colours are so me. 

I hope you like them both and while you are here why not pop over and take a look at the collection on  www.crafterscompanion.co.uk and take a look at all the design teams makes while you are there.

Happy crafting xx
