It's time for another Rudolph Day and another cross stitch Christmas card (cross stitch cards are my RD theme this year). Lynne (Lynne's Craft Haven) contacted me after I posted my February RD card to offer me some Christmas cross stitch magazines. Not only did Lynne post me several magazines, but she also sent me some cross stitch kits - this cute 'Merry Christmas from Boofle' kit was one of them. Thank you Lynne!
To make this card I used:
5" x 5" cream hammer card blank
Cross Stitch Card Shop 'Merry Christmas from Boofle' cross stitch kit
My Favorite Things 'Inside & Out Stitched Square STAX Die-namics' die
Snippet of cream hammer card
The kit contained a patterned card for the cross stitch to be patched. However, I wanted to place the design behind an aperture so I used the patterned card for another project and die cut a stitched square aperture in the centre of the card blank. The completed stitching was fastened to the rear of the aperture and a snippet of cream card inserted inside the card to cover the back of the stitching.
I am entering the following challenges:
Christmas Kickstart Challenge - Wrapped Up for Christmas
Love to Craft - Anything Goes
Merry Little Christmas Challenge - Anything Christmas Goes
Rudolph Day- March challenge
The Cutie Pie Challenge - Something beginning with B (I have chosen Boofle)
