WIP: postcard for Judy's challenge

I am so lucky... I received another postcard from Judy. It is beautiful!

Judy has created a "1 Million Mile Quilted Postcard Challenge" and has tempted others to join her. I'm in.

Judy's April theme is "Work of My Hands". I was away from my sewing machine for several days and decided that was the best opportunity to join Judy's challenge.

It was great fun that took me to one of my favourite public libraries to remind myself how to stitch the embroidery stitches Mom taught me.

Here is the base:




And here is a close-up of the base card:



Add some basic embroidery stitches and some beads....



Add an adorable little butterfly, and find out how much it costs to mail from my vacation location... 
"April Showers'

I had a great deal of fun with this little project... and I hope all of the embellishments made it through two mail systems.
