I was hunting for something in my craft room the other day and ran into a couple of Stitching Cards I had stitched up many moons ago. So I pulled them out and put them in the 12 x 12 tray I keep on my desk to keep my projects together while I'm working on them or something else. Looking through my drawer of Christmas papers I found the plaid paper from My Mind's Eye, but didn't really have anything else that went with it. So I made a trip to my local LLS (with the twins in tow) and found this delightful double sided paper from Authentique called Anticipation. One side is a diamond pattern and the other side was a collage of different Christmas scenarios. Perfect! I used two Magnolia Mini's on this card, #3063 Vintage Tilda and #3074 Tilda Hanging Ornaments which are both available from Diana at Magnolia-licious.
Here is my card...

ReplyDeleteOh Barb I love this christmas tree, so cute with the minis. I would never be able to stitch like that, I can barely get a rectangle around the sewing machine one time on my card. Your card is so cool, love it.

I'd really love to learn to do this kind of stitching!!! Can you tell me where to get the materials I need and the directions for doing it? I love to do embroidery/cross-stitching, so I think I'd really like stitching on paper for cardmaking. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteYour stitching is BEAUTIFUL! Tilda(s) add the perfect touch to your Christmas card.
ReplyDeleteNow Barb you just totally blew me away with this beauty!! WOW!!!!! Look at that stitching! AMAZING!!! Your minis and the DP's are all so perfect!!! Phenomenal for sure!!!
