Stitched card



        This is my first stitched card. I found this pattern here . Best thing to do would be to print out the pattern and then prick the card stock and then stitch, but since my printer ran out of ink at the last minute, I drew one butterfly and I have used it on all four sides . Very difficult and not perfect, since this is the simplest of stitches( a series of long stitches) I managed to complete this card.


       I wanted to translate my oil painting of blue morpho butterfly into quilling but alas it ended up looking like glass painting. 


       Too many experiments with this card. I always wanted to try stitching on cards . Regina's challenge No 7  inspired me to try. Hope to use more embroidery in my cards in future.
