Greeting Cards - Combining Fabric and CardstockSome machine embroidery designs are not suitable for stitching onto cardstock, but that shouldn't stop you from creating magical greetings with your embroidery. Discover how to create your own one-of-a-kind greeting cards by first stitching onto fabric, and then attaching to cardstock. Our step-by-step project instructions will show you two different methods for creating your own! SuppliesSupplies Needed for the Framed Embroidery Card: - M29357, To the Moon and Back Products Used

Steps To Complete
|
Embroidery designs created to fit a 4"x4" hoop are easy to turn into personalized greeting cards. This tutorial will show how to make two different cards. |
|
For the framed card, the embroidery design needs to be smaller than 3" x 5." The fabric piece needs to be larger than 3" x 5" with roughly an extra inch along each edge. In this demonstration, we used the 4x4 size of the design "To the Moon and Back" (M29357). |
|
To make the framed embroidery card, draw a 7" tall by 10" wide rectangle on a piece of 65lb cardstock. |
|
Cut the 7" x 10" rectangle out of the cardstock. |
|
Match up the short (7") sides, and fold the paper in half so that it is now 7" tall and 5" wide. Press the fold with a bone folder to make a clean, crisp edge. |
