February Rudolph Day

It's time for the second Rudolph Day of the year and another cross stitch Christmas card (cross stitch cards are my theme this year).  A neighbour has recently gifted me several bags of cross stitch items and this cute chart was in one of the bags. I stitched this design last week when we were away in our campervan on a 'family visit' and have just made it into a card.

To make this card I used:

     6" x 6" white hammer card blank
     Kraftie Kits 'Christmas Teddy' cross stitch chart
     Lawn Fawn 'Outside In Stitched Square Stackables' die
     White 14 count aida
     DMC threads
     Snippet of white hammer card

After stitching the design I mounted the fabric behind a stitched square aperture that had been die cut in the centre of the card blank.  I then added a piece of white card to cover the back of the stitching.

I am entering the following challenges:
     Holly and Ivy Christmas Challenge - Anything Christmas Goes
     Rudolph Day - February Challenge
