Card
I needed a card and came up with this one. I used mylar for the first time. It was called "opal clear" but intensives the color of both background and thread. Colours in the picture are a bit too light.
To ease placement, I designed an A6-outline, which I stitched on the stabiliser before adding the card and stitching the rest of the design.

Thank-you for the placement outline idea.. why didn't I think of that - would have saved me many a time......

I have used placment lines for years, find it very useful for napkins, decorations on a pocket of children's clothing, even placing buttonholes evenly spaced, etc. But would you believe it this was the first time I used it for cards - real silly as it is so much faster.

158714Beautiful card. Wat doet die mylar het ook mooi op een kaart. En "best wishes" is weer eens wat anders dan al het "christmas" wat je nu ziet.Mooi hoor.

Dank je. Papier heeft niet het soepele van stof an ik verwachtte eigenlijk niet dat het op papier zo fraai zou worden.

Thank you. I'd seen examples, digitised for mylar, but never used it myself and wondered if it would work on paper too. And it does. I was amazed at the effect and am now stitching a couple more in between angels and Christmas ornaments.
