Friendship Card

I made this friendship card for Robyn in February, it seems to be still floating around the world somewhere as it never arrived, it was just pure chance I had the same image twice so I made another one and sent which finally arrived, the pattern is from Hobbydol Book No 162 by Sjaak van Went.

March Friendship Card

For Petra, this card I stitched APA pattern No a726, I love this rose pattern, I have used a Marianne Border Design Die No,LRO396, this is a beautiful die. The papers I used for this card are from Dovecraft Floral Muse 6x6 Designer Paper Pack, they are beautiful papers and worked perfectly with the pattern, I then die cut the gift tag from a Mini Gift Tags X CUT Die, stamped Friend onto it inked around the edges and then attached some string and added to the stem of the rose.
