Japanese folded patchwork
I'm making a Japanese folded patchwork bag for a friend so this is the card to go with it. I wanted to keep the front of the card simple so the focal point would be the patchwork design. I heat embossed the black cardstock with the Design Block Flourish (I love that stamp) using clear embossing powder. The black paper on the patchwork is a recycled envelope. Some of the patterned papers are recycled gift wrap and some are tiny scraps left over from other cards. The faux stitching is done with a silver gel pen and black marker. It's a grey, showery day here in Ireland so I'm afraid that the photo is not great.
