Christmas Quilt Embroidery Hoop



























I was so excited to see the Quilted Christmas embroidery hoop sample in the Holiday Catalog.  I happen to have a supply of small embroidery hoops in my crafting stash.  They were waiting for the right project to come along!
1. Stamp outline of star onto Whisper White card stock using Early Espresso ink.
2. Stamp polka dot image inside outline using Real Red ink.  Stamp stripes image inside outline using Blushing Bride ink.  The Christmas Quilt stamp set is photopolymer, making lining up the images easy.
3. Place star framelit over stamped star.  Nest stitching framelit inside the star framelit.  Cut out using the Big Shot.
4. Cut another star out of a piece of Quilted Christmas 6"x6" Designer Series Paper using the star framelit and Big Shot.

6. Attach DSP star to the fabric.  I used Tombow Glue. Layer stamped star using Dimensionals to pop it up.
7.  Stamp greeting from Christmas Quilt stamp set on scrap piece of paper.  Stamp once using Early Espresso ink. Stamp again using Garden Green ink.  Cut the "Merry" from both greetings.  Attach together, and punch a hole using a small hole punch.  Thread baker's twine through the hole and tie to the screw at the top of the embroidery hoop.  Tie a bow out of ribbon and attach to the top of the embroidery hoop using a Glue Dot.
8. Thread baker's twine through the holes of a button and attach to the center of the quilted star using a Glue Dot.
9. Trim the muslin fabric close to the embroidery hoop using a pair of fabric scissors to complete.

Purple and Pink Quilt Card

























Nontraditional Christmas colors can also be used with this bundle.  I created this sweet card for my one-year-old granddaughter.  Her room is decorated in shades of purple, and she likes elephants (she was an elephant for Halloween)!  The bundle can be used for other occasions as well.  Change up the greeting, and wouldn't this make an adorable welcome baby card?
1. Cut out the frame and the outline of the quilt by nesting the star quilt framelit inside the square framelit using the Big Shot.  For this card, the frame is cut out of Basic Gray card stock.
2.Cut additional quilt pieces out of Elegant Eggplant, Blush Blossom and Whisper White card stock using the star quilt framelit.   
3. Place Basic Gray frame onto a Whisper White card stock backing cut the same size as the frame (2 3/4" x 2 3/4"). Using the Basic Gray frame as your guide, secure the different colored quilt pieces on the card stock backing.  I used SNAIL Adhesive.  Remove the gray frame and emboss the quilted backing using the Quilt Top embossing folder and Big Shot.
4. Secure the gray frame over the quilted piece.  I used Tombow glue carefully along the edges of the frame. Mat to a piece of Blushing Bride card stock.  Mat to Whisper White card base.
5. Stamp elephant from A Little Wild stamp set using Basic Gray ink.  Cut out using coordinating Little Loves Framelits Die.  Color elephant using gray watercolor pencil. Blend color using a Blender Pen.  Color ears by picking up Blushing Bride ink from the ink pad using a Blender Pen.  Color toenails by picking up Elegant Eggplant ink from the ink pad using a Blender Pen.  Attach elephant to card base, using Mini Dimensionals to pop it up.
6. Stamp greeting from Christmas Quilt using Elegant Eggplant ink.  Tie a bow out of Elegant Eggplant Baker's Twine and attach to elephant using a glue dot.  Thread baker's twine through the holes of a button and attach to center of star using a glue dot to complete.
