May Rudolph Day

It's time for another Rudolph Day and another cross stitch Christmas card - which is my theme this year.  This card uses a 'preloved' Anchor Momentos cross stitch kit I found in a charity shop and stitched whilst in our campervan last week.


To make this card I used:
     4" x 4" cream hammer card blank
     Anchor Momentos 'Bell' cross stitch kit
     My Favorite Things ' Inside & Out Stitched Circle STAX Die-namics' die
     Snippet of cream hammer card

After finishing the stitching I mounted it behind a stitched circle aperture that had been die cut in the front of the card blank.  I attached a piece of the same card behind the stitching to cover the fabric.

I am entering the following challenges:
     Holly and Ivy Christmas Challenge - Anything Christmas Goes
     Love To Craft - Anything Goes
     Merry Little Christmas Challenge - Anything Christmas Goes
     Rudolph Day - May Challenge

Nothing more traditional than a Christmas bell, a beautiful card Kath

How lovely! I think stitching these wee scenes and images is a great craft for the camper van. They take up a small amount of storage and yet give great bang for the work involved!
Thanks for taking part in the Rudolph Days Challenge!

I always love stitched cards and this one is so pretty. I hardly ever do them anymore, which is very sad. Must try and change that xx
