I wanted to do something special for the seating card and was
inspired by framed seating cards. I had something in mind, but I really doubted
if I can accomplish it. My initial design was a bookmark (with the guests’
first name) slid into a sort of frame made from card stock. I have this most wonderful book of sampler design:
After thinking about it for a few days, I made the first prototype
and immediately liked it. Surprisingly, the material is quite stiff, and it’s
capable of holding its shape. In the end, I didn’t have to use the cardstock frame.
I used DMC cross stitch yarn, 825 blue and 321 red (Christmas red - I love Christmas red!!)
I ordered customised ribbon from www.personalisedribbons.com.au
in matching red and blue colour as well.
A little bit of the mess:
