Artist Trading Card

This year I am part of the Sewing Buddy Project over at Whip-Stitch .com . The February challenge is to create an Artist Trading Card. I thought this to be the perfect opportunity to dive into my scrap totes and trim drawers. Needing very little fabric for this project I knew I could find what I needed.  I had no idea what to make and was hoping to get a little inspiration while wading elbow deep in fabric off-cuts, Lucky for me I found a scrap of my all time favourite fabric.,an Asian brocade of red with black cherry blossoms. Add a little ribbon, "rhinestone" trim,some silver taffeta and black satin and I'm into crafting mode.

I have to say I'm pretty happy with how it turned out and I think it represents me as an artist. I also used up a little more of my scrap fabric. Mission accomplished!
