NO:2 Angel praying fabric card, this time i added strip on back to add paper to be able to write note to receiver. I also use old lace for a ribbon. I must buy some ribbon for future fabric cards. Hope you like, thanks for looking. :) This card took me approx. 3 hrs to make.

119791Thank you everyone, i enjoyed making these two cards. Before i forget, i cut two strips about 1 inch then folded it in 1/2 layed it across back before it did final satin stitching, after machine has gone around once, to tack down fabric, i trim, then finish the satin stitching. Insert paper or card in back between two added strips, sign it , your done. :) Thanks for looking everyone, Happy to hear you's like it:) Thank you for compiments..

HI bonnetgirl, i embroidered right on fabric, I hooped one layer of cutaway mesh stablizer, then used spray adhesive to hold fabric down, then i stitch the square around first to hold fabric in place. Then i go back and embroider pattern. After i go back load square and finish it off. but before it does last part of satin stitching around card, i trim to about 1/8 around, then finish the embroidery around square. remove from hoop and trim more but very very carefully, not to cut threads. poke holes out and add your ribbon.
