Embroidered Flower Card

Hi all I've been playing with my embroidery machine. I think I need to loosen the tension a little bit with this design on lightweight cotton fabric. Being frugal I decided to use my sample on the front of a card.

I was playing with red and yellow Brusho on glossy photo paper with a stencil on a angle. It didn't totally cover the photo paper as you can see in the lower left hand corner but I really didn't want to cut the photo paper shorter.

I poked holes in the photo paper and the yellow card stock in order to thread a scrap of ribbon through and tie a bow.

Wishing you Happy Frugal Crafting!
