This Reflexions cross stitch kit was amongst the many items my neighbour gifted me earlier this year. The kit was to make a ruby wedding anniversary framed picture, but I decided to omit the wording and stitch the rose to make a card for her birthday.
To make this card I used:
6" x 6" white hammer card blank
Reflexlions 'Ruby Wedding' cross stitch kit
My Favorite Things 'Inside & Out Stitched Circle STAX Die-namics' die
Woodware corner rounder punch
Snippet of white hammer card
I die cut a stitched circle from a piece of white hammer card and trimmed it so it was slightly smaller than the card blank before rounding the corners. After completing the stitching I mounted the design behind the aperture and attached the panel to the front of the card.
I am entering the following challenges:
Ally's Angels - Anything Goes
As You Like it Challenge - Cute or Elegant (I prefer making elegant cards, especially using floral or butterfly images, although I do make some cute cards for younger members of the family)
Beautiful Blossoms - Anything Floral Goes
Triple B Challenge - Birds, Butterflies, Blooms (I have chosen the blooms option)

That is a fabulous stitched rose Kath and looks perfect in the round aperture, and the hammer card has some lovely texture too. These kits are great and the patterns can be used over and over again and lovely of your neighbour to give them to you. x
