This is a card for a Dare to Get Dirty challenge. In a former life (pre-stamping) I was an avid cross-stitcher. So I added some cross stitches to attach the tiger image panel.

This is absolutely gorgeous, Lois! From the coloring on your image to the cross-stitch this is just so beautifully executed. It is so hard to keep up with all the challenges there is little time to look & comment but can't wait to see what else you've created for the DG's.
