It's time for the first Rudolph Day of 2023! For the past few years I've enjoyed working to a theme for my Rudolph Day cards. In 2017 I used images from a Lili of the Valley Art Pad, in 2018 my cards were 4" x 4", in 2019 all cards had a Christmas tree on them, in 2020 I used wet and/or dry embossing on my cards, in 2021 I used something that had been upcycled and last year all my cards used something that had been a cover gift with a magazine. This year my theme will be 'Cross Stitch' and all cards will have a cross stitch design.
To make this card I used:
4" x 4" white hammer card blank
Hobbycraft 'Snowman' mini cross stitch kit
My Favorite Things 'Inside & Out Stitched Circle STAX Die-namics' die
Snippet of white hammer cad
After stitching the snowman I mounted the febric behind a circle aperture that had been die cut with a stitched die. I attached a piece of white card to the inside to cover the back of the stitching.
I am entering the following challenges:
