I was so inspired by the Pottery BArn wall hanging (see next photo) that I had to try and make a card based on it.
I bought about a dozen sheets of DP in various shades of red, and tore them up. Then I paper pierced along the edges, and hand sewed with embroidery floss. Yes, it took ages, but my quilting buddy Karen is worth it!
So, if anyone wants to make one, I have TONS of paper left, and I'm happy to share.

This is SO cool! You can tell it took you forever - whoever receives this will feel very special! Love the original wall hanging too! I think the best cards come from inspiration in other places! Thanks for sharing!
