    Preface:
    JUST for stitching on card stock – so you can create your own cards and embellish them the way you want! This set is sure to pique the interest of those embroiderers who have dabbled in scrap booking and those scrap bookers who have an interest in embroidery!

    Cut a piece of card stock in half, then fold card in half again so that you will now have the front of the card.


    Step 3:
    Mark the center of your stabilizer.

    Mark the circle with a glass or any round object. Cut the center out of the card. You can now embellish the card however you want to. You don’t have to cut out the center, that is your choice.
