Three Wise Men

I was gifted this cross stitch kit earlier in the year, but have only just finished stitching the design as my poor old eyes found it hard work stitching on the dark blue fabric, but it's finished at last!

To make this card I used:
     6" x 6" white hammer card blank
     The Counted Thread Embroidery Collection by Sarah May Designs 'Season's Greetings' cross stitch kit
     My Favorite Things 'Inside & Out Stitched Rectangle STAX Die-namics' die
     Snippet of white hammer card

After completing the stitching I set the design aside to make the card blank.  I used a square card blank and trimmed it to 5.75" x 4.75" before die cutting the stitched rectangle from the centre.  I trimmed around the stitching and attached to the rear of the aperture.  To finish I attached a snippet of white card on the inside to cover the back of the stitching.  As the finished card wasn't a standard size, I used a piece of white paper to make an envelope to fit the card.

I am entering the following challenges:
