A Slimline Christmas Card

 


Today I am showing a christmas card with regular stitching. I usually make cross stitch cards but wanted to give this a try.

 took a slimeline stitch panel and die cut that on a piece of white cardstock. I stitched a pattern in red, white and green using crochet yarn. I still have a lot of yarn left over from my closed shop and this is a nice way to use it. The red and green are in larger zigzag pattern and the white is in smaller zigzag pattern. I added foam tape to the back and then I attached it to a white base card. I then die cut a circle out of vellum so you can still see that lovely pattern behind the vellum. I die cut a large stamped sentiment that I inked  in green and red tones to match the yarn colors. I popped some foam tape underneath the sentiment to attach the vellum to the card without it showing. It is somewhat different from what I normally make but I do like it. 

I will enter this in the following challenges:
The Holly And Ivy #188 - Anything Christmas Goes
Rudolph Days July 2025 - Anything Christmas Goes
Sweet Stampin' - Anything But A Square
Dream Valley #341 - Christmas In July

Till next time
