Hi there, Here is my entry into this weeks 52 (Christmas) card throwdown,
http://52cct.challenge.blogspot.com.au , the challenge is to put hand sewing on your card, and I made a cross stitch ornament for the front of the card, it is a 5-3/4" square card, which is not my usual size, but everything seemed to fit. I used white cardstock for the base and red for the topper, and I cut the largest square from Poppy Crafts Square Nesting Dies, I used the sentiment from an old Quickutz die set "Be Jolly" it is a very old set, but I have used it a lot, and after pressing the embroidery I stuck it all together with double sided tape, I hand cut the holly and used a hole cutter for the berries. hope you all like this card, I am also entering this card into Muse Visions Christmas Visions Challenge, Holly is to be needed on the card,
