Fabric Paper ATC's

At the Embroiderers Guild this week the Paper Arts group made fabric paper ala Beryl Taylors method.
I wasn't very happy with the pieces that I made-(sometimes I am my own worst critic) but when I cut the paper up into ATC sized pieces and cut out some heart shapes as well I changed my mind about the piece.
I think when you look at it as a whole piece it sometimes leaves a lot to be desired (mine that is).
Anyhow I had to make ATC's for the small online group that I belong to where the theme was hearts (naturally) so I decided to make them out of my fabric paper.
I mounted the heart shape piece onto a square of hand made white paper and then stitched both pieces onto the background with the sewing machine using gold thread.
All in all I am a happy chappy and I hope the recipients will be as well.




I have made a few extra ones that will be exchanged with the other group members when we meet next month.
