Wow!! That was quite a response to our last challenge at the Male Room!! I guess you all have a lot of wee boys and babies to create cards for. That was fun huh?
Well this week we are going to have you think a bit. Don't be scared, it is gonna be fun! The theme is
oriental.
I have to admit, back when I first started stamping, Asian was a very popular theme, but I have since purged myself of many of those stamps. I was happy to discover this set from Lawn Fawn that fit the bill perfectly.
There is a story behind this cute cat. It is a called the maneki-neko- the Japenense lucky cat. the traditional color is white, black and orange.
A calico like my sweet Pinkie Pinkston. Many of maneki-nekos have their paw raised. What this means varys quite a bit, but the higher the paw is raise the more luck it will bring.
The Asian symbol stands for good luck that I hand wrote. Black red, white and red seem Asian so I went with that color scheme.
So dig through your stamps, think outside the box and show us a male inspired oriental card at The Male Room.
My little maneki-neko:
