Default look at my Christmas cards

I finally took the time to embroider some Christmas cards. I got the idea from an older thread and thought now is the time. Thank you very much for looking.

Beautiful work. I made cross-stitch cards one year so I know how much work you did!

ok..I get that you did machine embroidery on the fabric, but HOW did you frame them? are those old cards born again?

Just lovely...I really love the Frohe Weihnachten!

Just beautiful. I still send cards using our good old U.S. postal service. People are worth more than the 44cents to mail.

I used cards where you suppose to put picture in. It says 4X6 photo. And I used stiff felt which I bought at Joann. I used to machine embroider on the card stock but a board member last year used the stiff felt.Thank you again.

Very nice. I only hand embroidery so I do not think I will make these.
