More Fabric Quilted Postcards

Yesterday I posted some of the fabric postcards that I had made and I have some more to show to you today. I still have more I am working on in various stages too. Plus one I made that I don't want to show you yet until that person receives the cards. I want her to be surprised first before she sees it here on my blog lol!
 I added sequins and French Knots at the top of the dress. I don't want to add beads or buttons in case these go through the mail. I worry about them coming off or getting broken. So with the sequins being flat and well stitched in place, that won't happen
A little blue bird.
This is the only 3-D postcard I made. It was a bit fussy and I won't do another one like this for a postcard. I might for a small wall quilt though.
A teacup. There was so much background space that needed something, so I sewed on some sequins and added French knots in the centers.
A single coneflower.  It's royal purple, but that color always photographs more blue for me.
A handbag.
I only had a small piece of this fabric and I loved it. I made it into a couple of postcards and I added glitter to the fabric.
Another section of the fabric gives it a different look. More glitter added to this one too.
A tulip. I free motion stitched this whole card and tried a decorative stitch on the edging. This card has a different backing fabric and so it was thinner to stitch the edging through.
I had painted this card first made it into a postcard and left it as is. But it just needed something else, so I did some doodling on the card. It was harder to doodle on it after-the-fact, because my lines were a bit more wobbly drawing on the thicker fabric. 
This too was a painted postcard I made and then decided to add the doodles on after.
