I'm organizing a 4 for 4 postcard exchange over on Gingersnap Creations and the theme is party time. I've almost finished all my cards and here's one that's pretty much complete.
The 4" x 6" base is 140lb watercolor paper which has layers of gesso, found papers, stamping and paint glazes. The hats were created from old book pages and embellished with all manner of things I could find in my craft room. My favorite part is the pom pom trim on the bottom, which is hand stitched with red and white thread.
We'd love to have more players and there's still time to sign up. For more details on the swap, visit Gingersnap Creations.
how cute and fun! I love the whimsy of this piece! I wish that I could play right now...but the new home comes first! Happy Wednesday! :)
