Happy Snake Year! #2

Happy Snake Year! #2
Finally, I able to squeeze in some times to make my second Chinese New Year card for 2013! I think the next card would be mass production since I really have very little time now. Chinese New Year is just a week away! Aaaaarrggghhhh.....

AnnaBelle Stamps Blog Challenge - Sketch AC155
Back to the card. For this card, I adopt the sketch from AnnaBelle Stamps Blog Challenge - Sketch AC155 sketch/challenge as shown above. It is a simple sketch since I have limited time.

Close-up : The gold snake
The snake is stamped on a white card stock and colored using Copic markers. It is layered onto a gold corrugated card stock.

Close-up : The sentiment in red scallop circle
The sentiment is stamped on a red scallop circle and attached between the white card stock and gold corrugated card stock as in the sketch.

Close-up : The white brads
Three (3) white brads (which has been on my stash for quite some times) are used on the right bottom corner of the gold corrugated card stock as shown in the sketch. Later, the whole gold corrugated card stock is adhered onto a red card base.

Happy Snake Year! #2 - Inside
On the inside of the card, as the red is too dark for writing, a pink inlay is used. Then, funny sentiment is stamped in the middle of the inlay.
Close-up : Sentiment inside the card

Dimension : 10.16cm x 15.24cm or 4" x 6"
Type : Horizontal fold
Inlay : Yes with stamped sentiment
