An Early Christmas Card - Mistletoe

Picture 217
I don’t stamp very often and when I do I have to keep it very, very simple as I am so caggy handed.
I love using pearls on my cards and this small stamp from The English Stamp Company is perfect for doing just that.
I stamped the mistletoe onto a square of pale cream card and then carefully tore the edges to give a ragged effect.
I sewed round the edges, rather haphazardly, with gold thread, using one of those small battery operated hobby sewing machines. To finish the design I made another slightly larger square, sewing round it too.  The two squares were then stuck together and added to a card blank.

Thank you for wanting to leave a comment. I HATE verification and apologise for the extra bother it causes, however, if I don't have it I get all sorts of dubious spam added and the comments would be bogged down utter ***p!

Occasionally I get comments on posts from several years ago, again, I have to apologise, copies of TEMPLATES etc. that I once offered are now NO LONGER AVAILABLE, when my last computer died, I lost everything and decided not to replace any them.
