Card swap

Sometimes the mail system is too good to believe. I mailed a card to Kristen in Germany on Tuesday and it arrived today! This was for the first swap in the cross stitch group on Stitchin' Fingers. A kind of 'getting to know' you exchange. The design is by LR de Rien. The title is 'Miniature Tulipe'. I used DMC color variations 4200 and a piece of wrapping paper underneath. My gluing of the paper leaves a little to be desired. I guess the humidity kind of got to it. Anyway, this was a fun design to stitch. I enjoy the 'negative' types.
