Description

I came up with this idea when I was making some inchies for Christmas cards.

Instructions

  1. Small 071120101705 1289166275

    Get a sheet of felt and your stamp. Get enough ink on your stamp and stamp your felt with your Christmassy image.

  2. Small 071120101709 1289168526

    Cut around your image.

  3. Small 071120101711 1289168629

    Now thread a some embroidery floss onto your needle and stitch around the outline of your image. I also used a bead for my reindeers nose as he was meant to be Rudolf.

    I finished mine off with a boarder of blanket stitch. Then stick some double sided sticky tape to the back and stick to the front of your card. Stand back and admire your handy work :)
