I'm quite into doing stitched cards at the moment. Bought a set of papers and a book of patterns in the QVC shop last week and once I had got hold of an awl for making the holes neatly (the drawing pin I had been using was hurting my thumb lol) I set to making the above butterfly. Decided to make it in blue using gutterman metallic thread as I knew I had some tiny blue beads to use for the body which would match nicely. So I did the stitchwork and have spent 3 days searching for the ruddy beads! Finally found them, under the radiator. Have not got a clue how they got there! Anywayyyy stitched the beads on tonight and I am now trying to decide what to turn this card into...
