Bumble Bee Notecard

Today's cross stitch notecard is made with an Anchor 'Bumble Bee' kit - this is my favourite of all the notecards.  It took a while to stitch, but I may do it again as I'm pleased with the final design.

After stitching the design I used two stitched circle dies and a snippet of dark orange textured card to make a frame.  I trimmed around the edge of the stitching and applied dots of acrylic glue to fasten it to the back of the frame before attaching it to the centre of the card blank.

This is beautiful and so detailed Kath and I can see that it wasn't the easiest and quickest but the finished result looks great and framed with that lovely orange circular frame. x
