Having spent most of today with a horrendous headache and cold, I had a lot of time to finish the Milton card project I started working on over the weekend. I'm pretty pleased with how he turned out and I enjoyed making it =)
 |
| The cross stitching and back stitching finished! |
 |
| I then frayed the edges with a needle, added some beads to look like berries or cherries and chose my card background. |
 |
| Added the bow, made using the bow tool on my Ultimate Pro. |
 |
| Made a handmade bow using a tag punch (Hobbycraft) a pre-made stamp (Hobbycraft) and black Memento ink. I'm looking for some kind of purple butterfly motif to put on the left hand side of the tag. I usually use a bow, but I think it might be a bit too bulky to use on the back of cards. |
Ah cute! I have got this so will do it when I need to send a card. Not done any x stitch for a good week as I am determined to get school work done before I allow any time for fun things lol
