Merry Stitchmas Collection Inspiration with Caly Person
Hi, Everyone! This is Caly Person with you today! I’m sharing three cards using products from the Merry Stitchmas Collection. I tried to pick a non-traditional color scheme for my cards today using pinks and greens. Gives it softer look and I hope you like these projects! I used standard six-stranded embroidery floss for today’s stitching panels along with some gold thread. You’ll notice the colors I choose are not only in the thread, but also in the cardstock. I started with white cardstock and colored it with Copic markers to match the thread that I used for the projects. For my first card, I die-cut the Diamond Stitch die…

One of the best features of these five simple dies are the unique markings to show you how many times to cut each die (2x, 1x, etc.). You’ll see on the large die, it says 2X, which reminds you to cut this die two times to create the red leaves, (then cut one or…
