Are any of you making artist trading cards that are quilted?

Here are the quilted Artist Trading Cards that I have made using Derwent Inktense pencils and tangle patterns (Zentangle style). I use Sakura Micron Pigma pens .05, 01, 05, and 08. I also use Pentel Gel Roller for Fabric pens. The black pens are used after applying and activating the dry color.

I have looked at quilted ones on the internet, but I would like to see ones that you have made.

For a tutorial on using Inktense pencils go to: http://www.quiltingboard.com/t-140040-1.htm

Artist Trading Cards are 2.5" x 3.5", the size of a playing card. Quilted ones can be made with a layer of Peltex (or other brand) as the center layer which adds stiffness.

Search on Google or other search engine for "quilted artist trading cards."
