Memories

This card was an accidental creation. Let me explain, I caught sight of an old used shopping paper bag and was inspired from it to make this card. The cut out girl figure is from the recycled paper bag. Think green, go environmental friendly, even the pictures on the paper bags can be recycled! LOL... I cut out a circle out of a white paper cardstock for the moon, stamped white swirls for background on a red card, punched and colored the orange flowers and plucked a pink sakura from our house decoration and found some Chinese words to go with the card. The Chinese characters are from Jeart die - 1990002 Hui Yi Si Nian.
"Memories" - it brings back fond memories of the good old days when every year, during Mooncake Festival my parents would invite dear grandpa and grandma over for dinner and after that we would sit and chat under the bright moonlit sky and enjoy the mooncakes and biscuits made just for the festival.
