This is the card I designed for these challenges. As I was cleaning the basement, I found some counted cross stitch Christmas decorations I had partially finished years ago. I brought them upstairs to use somehow and todays challenge to use staples hit home and here is my card. tfl

Nice cross stitch and staples on your card!! Sometimes it's really fun running into those old projects. I think I have forgotten how to do some of the things I used to - like knit. :

I saw and commented on your other card before I saw this one with the explanation of how you came to have the counted cross stitch pieces. Now I understand why you were brave enough to try staples on them. You rescued them from being unused and now they been elevated to being very special Christmas cards. Well done and good thinking! You get the prize for thinking outside of the box and repurposing your hand work projects into something useable and special.
