Bargello Technique

This week I have been trying to get more cards made and I am doing okay so far! Yeah!
I have made a card today using a new technique I saw on Technique Tuesday challenges. I am going to post it there and on the New ABC All Beautiful Cards Challenge Blog hosted by my fellow Twisted Tuesday design team member- Patty Gorka. 
 
 
 
The new technique is called Bargello. You have probably seen it done with quilts, as I have, but I have never tried it with a card. I used some paper I had in my HUGE left-over paper pile and did my best.
I'm also going to enter it in the following challenges:
Make It Monday #112-Anything Goes
 
Thanks for visiting my blog, I appreciate comments, thanks!
