Viva Frida!
A Frida Kahlo swap has been my latest love. I had never done Frida or Mexican themed cards and was excited to try them out. And I had a great time creating these nine cards! So much fun that I stayed up until 5:00 am to finish them! I just couldn't walk away! In these cards I used pages from a vintage spanish dictionary covered with colored tissue (thank you Lynnette April!) and papel picado, a mexican designed tissue paper with cut out shapes (thank you Mija!!). I then used various images from vintage Talavera pottery, rhinestones, vintage pics of Frida, and embroidery thread throughout.

Tamara, Frida is a fascinating artist. Did you see the movie Frida? Selma Hyack played Frida. She did a great job. You should rent it if you haven't seen it.
Great work!
