Fabric Postcard
I am completely addicted to working with fabrics,I cant seem to get off the merry go round lol,one thing leads to another !Do i want to get off ? Noooooooo I,m just loving it,I never thought in a million years i would be doing this sort of art,but always admired people who do.
I was inspired to create this postcard from some I saw in Craft Stamper,I,m not sure if they were fabric,dont think so,it just took me back to the days when I loved to collect the Victorian silk postcards,so heres my little effort !
The bird is my new stamp i bought in Blade Runner when we had our meetup,it was actually in a heart design,I cut it out for this,then sewed onto the fabric pieces,then glazed over to protect it.
I stamped the word Hope onto it,hoping my postcard gets to its destination in one piece lol,saying that i would proberly put in an envelope anyway !

Great postcard, Pattie. As soon as I saw it I thought of Craft Stamper but you've made it your own.
this is one great postcard love the fabric you have used love cheryl xxxx
love the idea! just fab colours :)
I have been mainly making cards lately, but you are inspiring me to do something different, which I haven't in a while now. I must delve into my sewing bits that I thought "might come in handy someday" and see what I have. This is lovely, as usual. xx
Wonderfull card,
love all the textures.
My heart was in my mouthj for a second then - I thought you were going to entrust it to the Royal Mail as is!!! Then I read the rest of the sentence. I have sent 'flat' collaged cards through the post but don't think I would trust something like this. It is awesome by the way, don't stop working with the fabric, you do beautiful work. It keeps calling to me, one day....
Pattie, this is so great! Love it!
