I made these cards using cardstock, fused fabric shapes and sharpies. More craft than art, but they are fun and my quilting friends like them. I try to choose fabrics that look like the colors in each person's stash.
I think the cards are very pretty. Who doesn't succumb to the beauty of flowers, plus...a handmade fabric card? Come on. It may not be art, but I don't think anyone would complain about getting one and would probably stick it in a frame. Oh....then I think it becomes art!!! So you HAVE been making art my dear.
Oh Sonji is so right. (As usual.) That age old question of craft vs. arts makes me think one is lesser. And I know that whatever you make with the creative spirit is ART! Wonderful cards. (By the way I'll have a bunch of "crafty" postcards on my blog later in the week.)
