Hello, Crafty Peeps!
Wow! It really feels like forever since I created a card. Over at Shopping Our Stash, Chris came up with the wonderful idea to create cards using the Bargello Technique. Bargello was actually created as a quick way to design beautiful quilt patterns. Of course, paper crafters adopted the technique. We would love to see your creative interpretations. I am sure this will become a frequently used technique in my studio. I have ideas!
My Art Deco Bargello
My Mind's Eye "Nostalgia" 6"x6" Pad: This pad is almost over two years old. I ordered tons when Crafty Steals had them on sale for $2.99 each. Ribbons: These are both at least 5 years old. I just buy ribbon because it is pretty! Cardstock: Ancient! I mean more than 11 years old.

Eileen Hull hosted a live Facebook class on this technique about three months ago. This was a practice piece and has been on my board just waiting for the right project!
I added a couple strips of my design paper to the edge of the inside writing page. I am thinking of adding a stamped image before sending this off!
