OK, cuties, got a lot of my gifts done, now am making cards for special people around town, so what I did was use my 11x13 hoop and got 4 fronts done at same time. I used metallic threads, mylar and black netting, I did a double run on the text slightly raising the underneath text to give it a shadow, then I used gold on the top lettering and red on the bottom. Now have to find the time to put it altogether.......LOL!!

They have the sparkle of the season. Was trying to figure out how to make a braille card for my childhood friend and thanks for the idea to stitch twice. If I could only stitch in braille but a raised tree should work.
