New Home card for friends who have recently moved.
I used a Marianne Designs cross stitch die and cut the shape with a Spellbinders 'Postage Stamp' die. After cross stitching the design with crochet cotton, I layered the postage stamp die cut on a red mat. The 'keys' embossing folder is an old one and I'm not sure of the brand.
I am joining in the following challenges:
