well thank you Vicki for your free Mom's design. I hope that you like how I used it. It is still wet as I used wss on the back of this & since it is glue I just lightly misted it so it would stick. I know that you can tear this to get a different look but I was afraid I would make it look worse....I am not very happy with it as it is so may have to come up with something else

I like your idea Loralye! I might try to do something similar.... embroider on tissue paper backed with wss (maybe a couple layers to get some body), then wet and stick to to a card. I've never tried anything like that.... hmmmm maybe need to think that through a little bit more...

This is a new idea for me! Thanks for posting! Your mother will be happy to have this! I think I might try using an iron-on stabilizer then use a glue stick to attack to the paper.

I think it looks great! Remeber - because you made it, that's the greatest gift! It doesn't matter if it is perfect or not - sometimes bertter if not.

Hubs made the comment ( I asked for his honest opinion) it looks like something the grandkids would make. BAM so I am going to give it to the 4 & 5 year olds so they can sign their name to the card & give it to their mommy. Better then throwing it out altogether

Something I have done in the past is I take a wood burn and lightly singe the edges of the paper, ...makes it look really cool...have you tried stitching right on the card? I think you did a great job with it!!

Loralye, another thing you can do that is fun....coil a fine wire (or buy a small spring) and attach it to the back of the stitchout and attach to the card....when the person opens the card the design springs out from the caRd.......
