Cards I've made

I've been accused of coloring and cutting pretty paper. To those that have accused, it is no secret that I enjoy doing that, along with getting together with other like minded women. On a newsgroup that I belong to we have a monthly challenge. The challenge is to make a few Christmas cards each month with the goal of having all our Christmas cards done by the beginning of December. So far I've made over 90 cards (I plan to send most to Nick's platoon so they can be sent back home to their families) This is in hopes of not running around like a chicken with our heads cut off wondering how we will ever get our cards done in time to mail them off.

These cards are made with a technique called the "Bandanna Technique".

I think they turned out okay. Not sure though, I will have to look at them again, later to make a decision.

Sometimes one has to look again later to appreciate it. That happens when you've worked on something too long.

You'll have to trust me when I say that they aren't crooked and as lop sided in real life. I have been having issues with my scanner and took the opportunity when it decided to work right to scan the cards. I actually made 4 but one didn't scan very well.

Sometimes when I work on a quilt for too long I have to put it away and go back to it at a later time when I can view it with fresh eyes.
