Owl

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!

    I always love seeing your cards with stitching on them Liz! I love this little cutie, he looks great! The embossing is just beautiful as it that border die. I've stitched my first image on a piece of cross stitched, die cut paper and I'm looking forward to making it into a card. Thanks for the inspiration! Hugs, Brenda
