I made this card to send to a neighbour for her birthday - she is the person who has gifted me lots of cross stitch items so I always stitch a card for her.
6" x 6" white hammer card blank
Carolyn's Garden 'Anemone' cross stitch kit
Lawn Fawn 'Outside In Stitched Square Stackables' die
Snippet of white hammer card
I used the stitched square die to cut an aperture in the centre of the card blank. After stitching the flowers I mounted the fabric behind the aperture and then added a piece of white card on the inside of the card blank to cover the back of the stitching.
I am entering the following challenges:
