I recently donated some feathers to the LettuceCraft Garage Sale and made these cards to ship the feathers in. I made two different types of feathers for the sale and used the colors from those feathers to make a coordinating card.
After the cards were embroidered, I needed a complementary design that I could print. When trying to come up with something that would work for both feather colors, I remembered some feather fabric that I had purchased. I was able to find a picture of the fabric online and print out the design. When doing any sort of machine embroidery, the back of the embroidery is typically a mess, so I used the coordinating design to cover the back. I also used that same design to cover the back flap of the envelopes. These were just printed on paper and adhered to the card and envelopes. Since making these, I’ve found a better method that I prefer - printing on adhesive label paper.
The various card tutorials I’ve found online have been for making a single card at a time and they have you center the card using a printed template. In my opinion, that’s just time consuming. Instead I use a little trick I’ve learned from my Kimberbell projects (I know I mention Kimberbell a lot in my posts. I’m not obsessed, just appreciative of all they’ve taught me ). I stitch out placement lines of where the cards need to be so I know exactly where to put them - Easy. Peasy.
The thank you design came from UrbanThreads.
