Hi, Friends!
I've been wanting to make the above thank you card for awhile since our Japan trip last month. We met Dustin and Susan's friend from Japan, Mari, and her husband, Kuzo. Mari was so sweet and gifted me Japanese candy and a towel. I just love the pretty background paper from Scrapbook.com. The Japanese girl die is from Spellbinder's. I hand wrote the word, Arigato, which means thank you. The clear washi tape and covering the black strip at the bottom is from Japan. The gold bow is from Japan, also. The gold bell is from our Japan trip, which is a symbol of good luck! I'm entering this card over at Love Those Pretty Papers Challenge.
Just a couple more photos of Japan...
Nikko, Japan
I don't know about you, but I am wishing for last month's weather back! This November gray rainy weather is for the birds or ducks, lol! Anyways, tomorrow and Thursday will be better thank goodness. We may get out and do some shopping.
Ok, well, I thank you so much for taking the time to drop by today! Take care and have a wonderful rest of the week!
Hugs!
