Postcard Embellishment
This weekend I decorated the X-mas Tree and when searching through all accumulated X-mas decorations from preceding years I found this cute little card.
I immediately loved this card with the cats, the glitters and the nice colours that someone sent me last year and wanted to keep it. My luck that just after I got it, I stumbled upon the blog of Dutch Sisters, who had this great idea (with tutorial) to do with beautiful postcards: crochet a little edge around the card and hang it on your wall like a little painting.
Even better: it has exactly the colors I used for the living room decorations I made in the last weeks!
how lovely! I pinned this idea a while ago but haven't chosen any cards to do it to. It looks so nice!
ReplyDeleteYour crochet card looks beautiful, i love the red edge!
