Zoefzoef, je kunt op kaarten heel gemakkelijk borduren als je versteviging in je ring spant en de kaart met een beetje lijmspray of een gewone plakstift op de versteviging bevestigd. Het borduurmotief moet liefst een lijnmotief zijn (redwork) en de steken niet te klein, anders krijg je een fraaie perforatie.
Ik heb zelf twee rozen gepost, en twee motieven geschikt voor Kerst, ik zal de link erbij zetten.

What great cards! You've inspired me to try stitching on card stock. Hugs and *'s, Deb
PS: 13 stockings!! WOWZERS! I'm impressed LOL! ;-D

Nice looking cards. Those are fun designs that you choose.

love these did you colour them in yourself and are they ok to sew out on stock card and if special card is used what is it,.
Is the card double fold, so that the revers of the design is hidden from view when completed.
look forward to your reply

I use orddinary card and colour them after I have sewn them. I stick just a piece of card on the back of the design to cover them up. Artistic Thread work has a very good video to show how it is done!

Very nice looking cards.

How very cute and thanks for the design info. *4U
