I made two more cards, and tomorrow I am putting all the four together.

They will look like this in the cards - I am not too happy about the heart, the stitching is symmetrical, and the "window" in the card isn't.

These cards are lovely Agi :applesauce:

Lovely designs, Agi! As for the heart-shaped card, I wouldn't normally recommend this but perhaps you can pull the stitching a little bit to line up with the aperture? The difference between the stitching and the aperture doesn't appear very great from the picture, so perhaps by pulling it slightly askew that would make it fit?

The cards are great, lovely colours, lovely subjects and well stitched.

Wonderful cards agi adn I don't think the heart looks bad.

Here is what I did for the exchange this week-end.
This first one shows the card color well but not the aida.

This is a close up.

This one is the card and its color.

And a close up.

The aida was a gift from Mable a while back and it is a nice olive green and I thought it wought make up well for some cards thar would be nice to give to men. I am happy with the result.

These are lovely Rose, beautiful designs. :applesauce:

I'm glad the aida came in useful :-)

They are wonderful cards and I love the different colour combinations!

Perhaps you can get back to me thanks

Hiya. With no disrespect to Susan's kind offer, I'll be making my own cards up as I have 'card stuff' in my stash.

Do I send them to you, Minij?

I can not find any plastic sleeves that are nice to go with the cards I made. Could someone tell me if there is a site in the net that sells the plastic for this. Then I can send these off to minij.

I will need to have an address to send these off to. Please
