Finished some cards today UPDATED WITH MORE!

Post by toobusytostitch »

I have a really busy month in March with multiple birthdays, anniversaries, Mothers Day etc so have been stitching like crazy trying to get things finished. I have today completed the Mothers Day cards for Mum and Mum-in-law as well as the Anniversary card for the in-laws as these are the first occasions to happen (starting on Saturday!).

Here are some pics of my handiwork. I did use patterns/free kits from magazines but modified bits/mountings etc to make them my own.

The Rabbit is the free gift from The World Of Cross Stitching (think it is the most recent issue) and the cat is the free gift from Cross Stitch Card Shop (I've seen this issue still in the shops here this week so you should still be able to get it).
