Christmas Gifts Card

This beautiful Christmas card features Iron-On thread bows and allows you space to create a personalized greeting.

Materials:

• Blank card 4x5.5 (or cardstock)
• Printed papers in holiday colors
• Mrs. K’s Iron-On Braid Assortment: Christmas
• Clover Mini Iron or your household iron
• Kreinik Teflon press cloth (keeps the adhesive in the thread from sticking to your iron)

Steps:

1. Cut several small (1-2 inch) squares from your papers. Start in the middle of your card. Glue down one square.
    
2. With a coordinating thread, iron a “ribbon” across your square, towards the top. Iron another “ribbon from the bottom to the top of the square. At the top of the square make a loop and iron down just the end. Make a second loop and iron the end down. Trim your thread. This is your first present.
    
3. Add remaining “gifts” one at a time by gluing down each square and then embellishing.

Kreinik threads available through needlework stores or www.kreinik.com.
