Eco Art: Valentines Day Cards
(EarthSpirit)

Homemade Valentine's Day Cards

Date:   2/1/2017 5:04:32 PM ( 7 y ago)

The background papers are hand-painted by an artist friend of mine and gifted to me. The old-fashioned pink valentine hearts and gold-colored ribbon were found at a thrift shop. A few of the cards have dried used tea bags with messages. These cards look simple yet took a long time to make; the holes were punched with a sewing machine and then hand-embroidered as the machine is old and couldn't handle doing the zig-zag stitching around the valentines without skipping stitches. I enjoy doing the hand stitching; even though it is time-consuming I find it to be relaxing and meditative.
