Father's Day

Hello everyone!

Father's Day is fast approaching, here is the first of 2 cards I have made for my son to give to his Grandads.  I'm going to let him choose who gets which one.


 This was a pattern in Cross Stitch Collection magazine, I have stitched it 2 over 2 on 28 count cream evenweave using the recommended DMC threads.  The wooden paper was a free download from the magazine's website.  I used a piece of brown card for the bottom layer.



Don't forget over at Unicorn Challenge we have a GD call out this month.  Come over and link up you blog for a chance to be our guest designer in our October challenge!
