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!
