I was very remiss yesterday in forgetting to post about the most beautiful postcard I have received in a one to one swap with Lorna who blogs as Artymess.
This lovely card has so much in it that speaks to me and Lorna is a girl after my own heart. I don't think the photograph shows up all the details but the card is beautifully layered with organza over various yarns and angelina and a gold ribbon. I love the Buddha as I have a Thai Buddha in my conservatory that has a similarly serene face. The little green heart reminds me of my stepdaughter as green is her favourite colour so I will always think of her when I look at this card. The card has been finished off with gold free machining and hand stitching which is Lorna's forte. Thank you Lorna for a beautiful card. My card for you will be on its way soon. Promise! I'll just go and do the satin stitch and it'll be ready to go!
