Embroidered Card!

Ever heard or sewing a card? No, well it's pretty great! I found this amazing DIY on http://blog.fossil.com...Wanna see what it looks like?

How cool is that?!

Alrighty so the materials are pretty simple:

Materials:

Cardstock (or any thick paper you want to put your design on)

Graph Paper

Tape

Embroidery Thread and Needle

Pencil

Step 1: On a sheet of graph paper make an outline of what you want to stitch onto your card. Pretty simple, make sure that

its the size of your card otherwise that could

turn into a sticky situation :O

Step two: Now that you've drawn your BEAUTIFUL design, cut your graph paper to the size of the outline, or the size of the

card, whichever comes first! 

Make sure the good side of your paper is face-up so you don’t end up with a mirrored image!

Step number tres (3) : Line up your paper with your card and tape it down. Then using the needle poke 

a lotta lotta lotta holes, maybe one ever milimeter, along the lines of your design. Your 

card should have holes that look something like this!

Step four: Remove your design and inspect your holes, fill in any that look like there aren't enough

Keep your picture for reference on what you want it to look like

Start embroidering!
