LAVENDER BEAD EMBROIDERY

This little thank you card is a variation of one that I am regularly asked to make


I sewedon the stems with green embroidery cotton and then sewed on the clusters of lavender beads, directly onto the cream coloured cardstock diecut:

I used a cream coloured CS mat, and a pale yellow base card.

The embellishments are a peel-off sentiment and a lilac satin ribbon bow.

Thanks for visiting today.
