Christmas Gifts Card
This beautiful Christmas card features Iron-On thread bows and allows you space to create a personalized greeting.
Materials:
- Blank card 4x5.5 (or cardstock)
- Printed papers in holiday colors
- Mrs. K’s Iron-On Braid Assortment: Christmas
- Clover Mini Iron or your household iron
- Kreinik Teflon press cloth (keeps the adhesive in the thread from sticking to your iron)
Steps:
- Cut several small (1-2 inch) squares from your papers. Start in the middle of your card. Glue down one square.
- With a coordinating thread, iron a “ribbon” across your square, towards the top. Iron another “ribbon from the bottom to the top of the square. At the top of the square make a loop and iron down just the end. Make a second loop and iron the end down. Trim your thread. This is your first present.
- Add remaining “gifts” one at a time by gluing down each square and then embellishing.
Kreinik threads available through needlework stores or www.kreinik.com.
