Asian Thank You

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL............and here is my first Asian card for 2013. It is a thank you card. The Kanji word Thanks is from Under a Cherry Tree by Jin Yong. It was a FREE SVG cut file which I have used numerous times in 2012. It was cut 3-1/2" x 4-1/2" using Recollections Black card stock. The Gold metallic Kanji background was made by setting the appearance in SCAL (Sure Cuts a Lot) at .5 using the Shadow Round Blackout feature. Embossing Folder used for the Gold metallic Kanji background is Cuttlebug Asia Cherry Blossoms. Red card stock is from Recollections...

Here's the Hero Arts Penny Black Dress Up Mimi image stamped using Tuxedo Black Momento Ink on Neenah White paper.  Copic colors used: Y17, E27, R20, E21, R35, R27.  I also used a Sakura Clear Star Gelly Roll pen on the white sections of the image and also the heart in the hair.

The "thanks" used is a Punch and Emboss (notcertain of vendor). The Vanilla card stock used a 1" circle punch, Gold embossed circle is 1-1/4" punch and the red card stock is 1-3/8" punch.

Here's a closer look at the card front:

Card Inside has a Vanilla mat (also cut using SCAL) for the message:
