Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2 Sketch 258

There is still a day left at Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2 so I thought that I had better share my second card for this month. 

I made this wedding card for a nephew who got married back in May. It was a lovely afternoon spent with family.
Everything on my card is from The Hobby House.
Thank you for visiting

Cross stitch critters

 It's time for the new challenge at Critter Crazy Challenge Blog and this month I am sharing a cross stitch which I am in the process of framing. I have used the pin method on foam board but I still need to get some tape for the back.

There hasn't been much crafting time at all recently as we are hosting a big lunch this weekend coupled with a very hot craft room so I thought I would share this make for my design team piece as this is a true anything goes challenge as long as a critter is the focus.


The chart is by Jardin Prive, it's a free chart available from their website which is also available in a couple of other languages. They are lovely charts, I have another one of hers on the go and one kitted up ready to start as well.
I changed the colours to suit the decor in my hallway and stitched it 2 over 1 on some 14count rustico aida using Anchor threads. The ribbon is from my stash and the frame is from Ikea.
