So happy to be honoring Snietje today! She's so sweet and talented. So hard to choose a card to CASE. She's a master of 3D projects but I also always admire her embroidered cards. Ultimately I chose this one: Hot Beverage by snietje at Splitcoaststampers
But I'm a cross stitcher, so I changed her cup to a cross stitch pattern. I laid some cross stitch fabric on my paper and marked every other hole with a pen. Then I marked my x's in pencil to form a teacup and poked holes with a pin. When I flipped my paper over, I had my pattern all set. This card sure took a long time to make but it was fun! Enjoy your time on the spotlight, Snietje!

Both you and Anita are very talented card makers. Enjoy seeing beautiful stitching on cards, and appreciate your time it took to do them. This is beautiful like the card you cased. Thanks for the deets on how you did it. Can't forget your cool calligraphy. Fav'd
