Art Cards from Photos
I took some photos of my watercolor art and nature years ago, had some small prints made, put them away and forgot about them. Rediscovered the photos and have been making art cards all weekend.

Art Card "Backyard Flower" 6" X 5.5" Eco Art by mayah(c)2015
You can't see it from the photo, but I put a cardboard cut-out in the shape of the flower underneath the flower in the photo, so that the flower sticks out from the card for a bit of a 3-D effect. Hand embroidery around the flower petals/stems.
Made an envelop for this card out of unbleached wax paper--this was stitched on the sewing machine.
"Southwest" 7" X 5" Eco Art by mayah(c)2015
Another art card from a photo of a watercolor design I did years ago; used the sewing machine to punch the holes around the design, then hand embroidered. The design card sits on top of a piece of Rhimax paper (brown), which is 100% recycled paper product.
Put the card in a frame from Goodwill Industries--it looks like inlaid wood but it's really plastic!
