Post Card Swap

Some of the backs I am playing post office with!

Thread, fabric and hand made paper

Stitched on fabric and paper then glued to mat board. Then it was backed with a copy

of an old post card with a mocked up little stamp!

Having lots of fun, can't wait to receive the hand made

surprises in the mail!

Thanks for Peeking, Karen

These are for a post card swap hosted by i Hanna

It is now closed but you can go there and see other cards.

Also take a look at her blog with many tutorials and how to's!

Thanks Hanna for all the work!

Kellee Rich said...: Your cards are beautiful! I just linked here from Jane Cabrera's blog. I love the final photo of the handstitched lady. Seeing all these cards is making me want one of every single person participating (I know that's a bit greedy but they're all so lovely!). Am so glad to be taking part too.
