    If I don't check in a few day wanted to say
    MERRY CHRISTMAS to all.
    I'm off to finish up a few things. Then to bed I go.

    I got on pinterest too. Got a lot of good ideas. Know to see if I can make it work on a post card. I love rainbow colors.

    Kinda new at this swap, so forgive me while I ask. What does the backs of the postcards look like?

    Hi queenof2802, some people use a nice card stock for the back, some people double up an index card. I imagine you could repurpose the back of an old greeting card. Whatever works best for you.

    I use muslin stabilized with a med weight stabilizer. And, then I zig zag the edges. You can finish the edges however you would like to. I write on my card backs with a micron pigma pen.

    Oh, I'm excited to see all the cards this month. I think rainbows are pretty also.

    Thanks!! That's what I was planning until I searched Pinterest and saw where there were options of using a solid fabric and actually writing on them. Then I confused myself. Sometimes I over think
