I'm in a postcard frenzy - whipping out some bright colors in anticipation of the end of winter. I am highly motivated by the onset of spring. So.. about 75 cards in the making. These will be for the SK Craft Council Boutique, and I'll likely frame some up for shows I have before the summer.
The color schemes are put together - no two alike. Now I'm addign the stitching, mostly simple machine work and some couching. This is my fave - fabric from my friend Carmen (LOVE this color to no end!!).
Sheep in some. Birds in others. Then it will be a couple of afternoons doing backings and edges. (A couple or three...)
It's a beautiful day - BEAUTIFUL! So for this afternoon, we are out to play! : )
Linking up to WIP Wednesday @ TN&TN. My apologies about the font & format - not sure what happened. Inlink changed, I didn't. ? hmm..
Have a super day everyone!
