Saturday's workout "Sew an ATC"




The theme at SaWo is to sew an ATC. As I don't have a sewing machine I had to do it by hand. I really enjoyed it and made two while I was at it. The background is silk fabric. I stitched around it in metal thread, painted it with mostly Lumiere paints, then collaged and embellished with bit of lace, metal, beads, fabric flowers and various other bits and pieces.

    These are both beautiful, Astrid. Love your stitching of the beads to the first one, and the cross stitch really sets it off. Great cards.
