For Carla's challenge, I made a tag and put it on a card, because I really needed a card to give to our work Adopt-a-Family with a Gift Card in it. But I was glad that I got a chance to use this MFT cross stitch tag die that I put on my wish list the moment I saw it one someone else's card. And I purchased it with my prize from winning the Simon Says Stamp Monday challenge. I had seen a cute little embroidered Christmas tree on Pinterest and thought it looked easy enough for me. The hardest part of this card was how many times I had to run the die through my Cuttlebug to get the tiny dots to pop out. And I still had to manually pop out many of them. I'd say it was worth it though.

Absolutely worth popping all of those dots out for this beautifully done tag!! Love it. One day I am going to get back into cross-stitching and this is an inspiration to do so. SO lovely, Jen.

WOW, what a great tag/card. Awesome idea, Jen. Your color choices are wonderful and that background paper pairs perfectly with your crafty delight. I have some sequin waste "ribbon" and also some drywall tape with holes in it that has my wheels turning.....
