Despite my best intentions, I've not had much time for crafting this week but I have found time to make some of my cross stitch into cards. This Kingfisher uses a kit I found in a charity shop whilst we were away. Although I like the finished card it wasn't one of my favourite designs to stitch.
To make this card I used:
5" x 5" cream hammer card blank
Textile Heritage 'Kingfisher' cross stitch kit
Lawn Fawn 'Outside In Stitched Square Stackables' die
Snippet of cream hammer card
I trimmed a piece of cream hammer card so it was slightly smaller than the card blank and cut a stitched square aperture in the centre. After completing the stitching I mounted the design behind the aperture and attached the panel to the front of the card blank
