Birthday Card For My Sister.

I wanted to make a special birthday card for my Sister, so I chose the photo of her when she was younger to put in the centre, I stitched and Die Cut  Ann's Paper Art Stitching Stencil No AND 004, I chose to keep the colours as close to the photo as possible so stitched with my Gutermann thread No's 7001 and 7023, I used my Memory Box Fabulous Phlox Die Style No 98511 to cut the flowers and leaves and added some pearls to the centre of the flowers, I also added a black and a silver ribbon. I embossed the backing card too. My sister was thrilled to bits with this card and is going to buy a box frame to frame it and hang on her wall.
