Meanwhile...

Just a couple of cards made in the last week or so.

The first one was for my brother, who loves Salsa.   I originally made it on black felt with metallic thread, which takes quite a long time to stitch out as the machine has to be slowed down to prevent the thread sgredding.    It looked OK, but when I turned it over to get it out of the frame, I was startled by the back:  black bobbin thread on white stabiliser. It looked really effective,  so I redid it on white felt with black thread. 



And then a Wedding Anniversary card.   This came out so much better than I anticipated.
