Good news, this blog post is innuendo free! Also, it contains a very nice card. Come see…
Somehow this all came together within 30 minutes of searching, rummaging and gathering so I am thinking that the process is getting easier thanks to all of these layouts. I hope that they are helping you too.
I worked back to front for this card sketch by creating a rough layout to work from and then the printable one after so you won’t see the layout before the card today.

Pretty, innit?

John, since you do an awesome job on creating Asian cards….Will you do more of them?
I love making Asian cards, they can be simple or a lot, either way they are gorgeous. I have all these Asian colored papers and embellishments, but don’t know where to start. I have use some of your Sketches so far, and they came out wonderful. It’s you, that has the tricks ,on how to mix and match everything. That’s where I get lost.
Please do more!
Thanks from Cali

I’ll certainly revisit the Asian style papers from graphic 45 in future videos but keep in mind all of the layouts can be used with any themed papers.

Wow! You couldn’t of done any better. Good job!
Love how you took a piece a paper, colored it different shades of color, and put your die on it..as you did the butterfly. Great idea. I learn so much from you!
Thanks From Cali

I have a new favorite, this one, John! Once again an awesome card and great lay out.
What a great idea John to use the backing of the doily as a resist for another project with paints (or inks). I would never thought of that, learn always something from you.
Thank you so much for sharing this beauty, stay safe and have a wonderful evening.

Hi John as always another entertaining video. I do like the way you throw in useful ideas like how to ombre with inks before die cutting. Never entered my head to do that. Enjoy the rest of your day Xx
