Found a suitably chocolatey design for my chocaholic daughter-in-law's birthday card.
I'm not sure that it's really the sort of chocolate that she loves, but it made me smile. Hopefully it'll make her smile too.
I've embroidered directly on to felt, which doesn't pucker as much as ordinary fabric. I also included a satin stitch frame in the design, as this gives a neat edge to trim back to for a tidy finish. I used tearaway stabiliser and used double sideed tape round the edges and in an X across the middle to stick it to the card.
I printed and trimmed an A4 landscape insert (which I didn't photograph, sorry) which has stars on one side and a personal message on the other. That was lightly glued down the fold and pressed in. It gives a much better finish to the overall card.
