I love the look of that dragon stenciled with paste -- very dramatic. Your geisha in the corner is just enough "splashy" color. Beautiful card.

Amazing card! The inking around the dragon sets him off so well and I enlarged it and noticed he also sparkles. Your Geisha is gorgeous; so beautifully colored.
