I went with the fortune cookie image for my design. I colored the fortune cookie with Spectrum Noir markers and cut it out, then used dimensional dots to attach it to a round panel. After curving the “wishing you good fortune” sentiment a bit on my clear block, I stamped it to fit inside the outline of the fortune strip. The cutout strip extends out from underneath the raised fortune cookie image.I went with a somewhat traditional Chinese new year color scheme for the design. I used a piece of red on red patterned paper from one of Echo Park’s mini collection kits to cover most of the cardfront. I used a strip of shimmery gold paper for the long panel that extends down from the top of the card. A strip of golden yellow dotted washi tape runs down the center of the panel to add a contrasting pattern to the card.
