It's about time I populated my gallery. Most of these are all cards created shortly after I started stamping and mostly date from around 2005.
This card predates the stamped cards - while I was waiting to get into stamping classes I did the next best thing and did a short course in thread card making - that's what we called it anyway It's also known as stitching cards, prick patterns, or Prick And Stitch cards.
I used a black metallic thread which gives it a lovely, elegant finish but was a pain to thread through the fine needle.
The particular pattern can be found here: http://www.form-a-lines.net/product....cats_on_a_wall
I altered the pattern to add a little definition where the whiskers join the cats' heads.
General instructions for this type of card are found here: http://www.cardinspirations.co.uk/sh...=faldemo2.html
There are some free patterns on both sites. I'd recommend doing some simple ones first. Please feel free to ask if you have any questions.
