Cards for swaps

 This card challenge was to make a card using the Rubber band technique- (Rubber Band technique) as a background. I did this embossing the rubberband image in gold and then shading with various inks. I then cut the paper into strips to use as my background. I thought the background looked a bit bambooey so decided to go for a Japanese sort of theme.

 This is a Criss Cross card (Criss cross card). I loved making this one. I added shells and twine for a beaching feel
