This is the first of two.
As you can see, it isn’t overly elaborate. After I got started, I felt like that it was taking me way too long to do this. I know some of you ladies can whip these things out in no time.
This is the back side. It is printed on cardstock.
The second one is about half finished. I sort of lost interest when it started taking more time than I thought it would. I will post it if I ever get it done. LOL!
I am also working on a beaded pin/necklace? It is coming along nicely.

Your card looks lovely. Don't stress the time factor - sometimes creating takes a little longer than anticipated :)
It looks great. Are you hand stitching the edges? That would definitely take longer.
These are terrific! Hand stitching the edges will definitely add a lot of time to them. Try a satin stitch around the edge instead.
Micki - the Season is upon us! What a pretty card!
Everything I do takes longer than I thought it would take. Sometimes I have to delay lunch until 2:00 before I can say I have met my morning deadline. but, if you do the cards in an assembly-line with one theme, they do go a bit faster.
that is really pretty - I like the "crazy quilt" style. Nice work!
Your CQ postcard for Christmas is quite attractive and I expecially like how you did the back like a real postcard.
Hi Micki. Everything I do takes far longer than I think it will. I like your PC, but if it does not give you pleasure, then don't do it. I've got to a stage where I don't do anything unless it gives me pleasure.

Yahooooo! This is great Micki! Love the Christmas colors - and the snowflake!
I like how you did the stitching around the edges:) And, have patience....
Everything takes me longer too, but when I do postcards and other stuff by hand I can fit it in at times and places I could never if I was tied down to my machine.
Your postcards are beautiful.
Beautiful postcard! and I'm not at all surprised it took a long time. EVERYTHING takes longer than I think it will...Jen
Very lovely! I love your traditional santa in there. Stitch work is beautiful.

don't stress over the time factor..as long as you enjoy what you do!
I generally just heat fuse a fabric backing and use a Pigment ink calligraphy pen to address my cards.Some computer clever people print the postcard format to fabric and use that for reverse side.
Me? I'm a computer dummy :-(
