It's time for another Rudolph Day and another cross stitch Christmas card (cross stitch is my RD theme this year). This cute 'Skating Snowman' is from a design by Mouseloft. I have stitched this design in 2022 and had enough threads (except for white) to stitch it again. This time I used some aida that I received in a giveaway which is blue with white spots, making it perfect for a snowy background.

To make this card I used:
4" x 4" white matt card blank
Mouseloft 'Skating Snowman' cross stitch kit
My Favorite Things 'Inside & Out Stitched Circle STAX Die-namics' & 'Inside & Out Stitched Square STAX Die-namics' dies
Mouseloft 'Skating Snowman' cross stitch kit
My Favorite Things 'Inside & Out Stitched Circle STAX Die-namics' & 'Inside & Out Stitched Square STAX Die-namics' dies
Snippet of white matt card and pale blue aida
I used a snippet of white matt card to make a frame for the stitching, using the square die for the outer edge and the circle die for the aperture. After completing the stitching I mounted the design behind the frame and attached it to the card.

I love this fun snowman Kath, and I thought at first that was all cross stitch in the background but I see on closer inspection it is blue aida which makes a wonderful background. x
