A card today which I made for a recent card swap.
I used an MFT 'Cross-Stitch Tag' die, chopping off the top to make a rectangle. The owl was stitched with crochet cotton. I embossed the background with a Creative Expressions 'Linear Leaves' embossing folder. The die cut on the right is a Memory Box 'Fairytale Flower' one. It was a little to long, so I snipped of the bottom. The sentiment attached with foam pads.
I am joining in the following challenges:
Your cross stitched owl is so cute, and it matches so well with the embossed panel!
