My next thing is going to be hammering flowers onto paper. They make a nice, kind of smooshy, flower/leaf thing that you can embellish or not, just go smash more with big hammer. You can call it tatakizome if you are fancy.

Hand hammered flowers with embroidered North Carolina & embellishments are always a good combo !

I've been enjoying these warmer sunny days and getting some new embroideries done. This one is hammered nasturtium flowers!

My newest notecards are botanical prints using the Japanese art of Tatakizome or flower hammering. It’s fun and creative.
