A few photos of odds and ends


On CardScraps we had a Valentine card swap; we had to send the card to our swap partner's other half. The cupid is from Winnie, and below is the one I sent to Roz's Justin.
The next two are ATC's made for a pink and purple swap. They have arrived at their destination, but the incoming haven't arrived yet.

This is embroidery on canvas that has been painted with pearlescent paint. It doesn't show up particularly well, but all the thread is space dyed.
The next is a combination Get Well/Birthday card made for a friend who had a stroke and had to spend most of her birthday in the hospital. She was allowed home for the weekend, but has to go back again on Monday. Thankfully, she has regained the use of her limbs, but her speech is still affected.

  2. The beads are not stitched as such, just threaded onto the viscose floss and wound around the flower. The ends of the thread are secured with tape.
