This was made for the WT255 (Textiles) I was also talking to a dear friend who was feeling a little down so I said I would send her a card ,( I hope this will lift her spirits a bit )This is a Cross Stitch that I had started so I finished it this morning,it uses the color combo for this week as well. I attched the Cross Stitch to a cardboard back then matted it to (close to ) Blush Blossom then on DP then Pretty in Pink CS then I Attached 2 thin strips of light pink leather to it.I then attached the image piece to the Pink Passion CS. I added a layered fabric flower to the ribbon with the rhinestone in the center. I rolled the leather strip scraps into circles and attached them to the Pretty in Pink CS.I have been really sick so I cheated and rolled the 3 challenges into 1. Thank you for looking and have a Wonderful Day !!!!

Oh my gosh it's cross stitch!! This is so sweet and so special. I'm sure your friend will love it. I made 1 cross stitch piece long time ago, and thought it was fun. :>)
