Faded Patchwork Quilt - Sunday Postcard Art

 This week at Sunday Postcard Art we are doing some patchwork.
Click on photo to see details.
I used a patchwork technique from TJ, rubber stamps, distress inks & distressed embossing from Tim Holtz and Gold Metallic Sakura pen. My aim was to make it look like a faded old quilt. The scan cut the top off a bit, the gold pen goes completely around the card.

  4. Such pretty colours! I like the way you've consistently used the dotted background to unify the piece.

  5. I love your postcard, Rebecca - it really does look like a comfy, old quilt.

    If you place < at the beginning and > at the end of the phrase below, and put your link address into the phrase instead of the capital letters, you should be able to put in your link.

  6. I see you've gotten help with the link issue.

    Actually, using the word 'gap' doesn't work, but I could have left the end brackets off. Didn't think of that. Anyway, good luck! :-)
