Too much swapping

I've decided I really need to cut back on all the mail art I've been doing. I seem to be making things I need to make to meet commitments but not things I want to make. I like making these things but I'm hearing the call of the dolls. So I'm going to concentrate on finishing up everything for this month in this next week. Today I made two paper Artist Trading Cards that had no theme for one of my swap partners. I got this image in the mail today from Penny and I liked it so much I used it right away.

I used a paint color sample that I picked up at Home Depot the other day for the background. They are big enough that you can cut a whole background out of it without getting any of the writing on it.
