For My Daughter's MIL!

My daughter is always someone that waits to the very last minute for me to get small projects done for her so since she came by last night and saw my tissue holder she wanted a matching card and holder for her MIL.... So  I had to drive into town this morning to pick me up more packs of the traveler's tissues....
This way I can have more to keep in handy when I make occasional cards to give away.... They are so super fast to make you can get 2 holders out of a 8 1/2 x 11 sheet of cardstock....
Since her MIL is in her late 70's my daughter didn't want me to over power the card and tissue holder with all kinds of blings and blooms.  So I just kept it clean and simple!  Her MIL is a tiny Japanese lady and is so spunky... 
For my image I used Kiyomi from (Sister Stamps), paper piece her kimono, colored her with Spectrum Noir, Stampin Up & copic markers, gems from Taylored Expressions, sentiment from Kaiser Craft, pop up dots, Memory Box (Whimsy Circle) and papers from Kaiser Craft )Chapter One paper pad.
What is really wierd my back ground cardstock is like a jade color but the the photo looks blue.







Enjoy you day/evening...
Keep on crafting - like I am all weekend (hehe).
Hugs
