The theme at <a href="http://osadesignchallenges.wordpress.com/">Oriental Stamp Art </a>this week is kokeshi dolls and I used last weeks OSA card layout to make this card:</p>

<p>I used a<a href="http://www.aboutartaccents.com/danalen7.html"> kokeshi</a> stamp from <a href="http://www.aboutartaccents.com">About Art Accents</a>, the doll sets are absolutely adorable and you get many stamps on a sheet, think of all the cool card you can make. I used two strands of clearance seam binding (see <a href="https://thefrugalcrafter.wordpress.com/2010/09/24/precious-birthday-card/">yesterdays post</a> for deal info and free shipping coupon) as-is and made a bow (how easy) and wrapped it around my panel of BG kioshi paper (need more of that!) and I colored my image with copics:</p>
