Samurai Sword Master

Hello and Welcome!

My husband, Jeff, has been studying at the National Karate School for over 9 years and is a second degree black belt. He has been perfecting a sword form and this year performed it at the NK Intramural Tournament. Jeff took 2nd place beating out 3rd and 4th degrees! Way to go!!!!


Texture was added to this page with silver embossing paste and a stencil by Creative Embellishments. The Creative Embellishment's chipboard dragon is perched on a handmade sword cut from mirrored paper. I was inspired by the bold black lines that add contrast in Creative Embellishment's mood photo.


The brick chipboard and the star flair button are also by Creative Embellishments. This page is based on a sketch from Sketch N Scrap.
