My Tips for You from Sandy McManus

This is a fun and easy to put
together kit. It looks like you spent hours and hours assembling. The stitching
really is quite quick. You will have lots and lots of leftover pieces to create
your own things.
Stamper Level: Beginner to Expert

Time needed: as a group, plan on 3-4 hours,
less for experienced crafters. Short on time? Do a step a day, such as stitch
all of one card per day. Stamp one day. Envelopes one day.

Envelopes
· Complete all liners at once

liner.
· Don’t forget to stamp your

Stitching
· Do punch out stitch holes ahead
of time. Erin on video says you do not need to do it. It makes it difficult
to see where you need to stitch next if you do not punch them out.
· Thread needle with the needle
threader provided.
· Scotch tape is your best friend
for anchoring ends of thread.

Christmas Joy Card
· Use 3 dimensionals for adhering
the star.
· I like the plaid star at a
diagonal because this card has such strong horizontal and vertical lines.
· Do not split the thread. This
thread unthreads from needle easily.
· Star accent is thin paper, do
not pull!
· Attach greeting with tear tape.
· Attach holly leaves with glue
dots.
|
Holly Jolly Card
· Stitch middle tree last so it
sits above side trees better.
· 1 twine strand does all three
trees.
|
Peace & Happiness Card
· Use half of all gold twine.
