Spring has sprung yet again! It's time to take that annual well deserved Spring Break vacation. Where would your postcard come from? Make whatever paper craft you like and show us your "spring break vacation destination". Remember to include the name of your destination somewhere on your project.
I struggled horribly with this challenge, and this was the best I could could do ... the Japanese paper I had in my stash and the sentiment I typed up from my computer onto vellum paper, finally, the knot is one that I copied from a gift envelope - it is supposed to be in fancy cording, and it would've been much nicer, but alas the cupboard was bare!
Head on over to Our Creative Corner and check out what our fab DT have in store for you!
Have a great weekend, and thank for stopping by!

By the looks of your card, you'd never know that this was a struggle! I think its wonderful! I love how you used Japanese papers on your Japan destination card. It all works! The Japanese writing is a clever touch!
I hope you have a wonderful weekend! hugs, sharon w.

This turned out beautiful, Tui! I love the paper and the sentiment on vellum! The knot is beautiful!
From this side, it sure doesn't look like you struggled, I did too tho! Love that paper and great knot!!!
Very very cool!!!
Tui - this card ROCKS! It def doesn't look like you struggled! I love the casual elegance that Japanese art imparts and that knot is GORJUS!! I almost did an Asian-themed card too, because I dream to go there some day! Hugs, Marcy XO
Well Tui
Perhaps you should struggle more often if this is what you can produce..... To me you have completed the perfect card to represent Japan because as soon as I saw it I knew where it was from.
Your idea of the knot and the folded papers... just priceless.
