Welcome Baby Cross Stitch Card - 2017

Another friend was having a baby this year and I believe designing this card is what started my new obsession with card making.  I stumbled across another cross stitched card on Pinterest and said "I can do that".

This card took quite a bit of planning.  The cross stitch design was actually two designs that I combined into one.  Once I finished the stitching, I couldn't decided how to actually finish the card using the supplies I currently had.  This was born (pun intended) after playing around with some stitched frame dies that I had from Frantic Stamper.

The sentiment is Hero Arts "Little One"
