Sending a get well card to an ailing friend is always a thoughtful and meaningful gesture. Making a personalized card card is even more meaningful.
This was made for a dear friend who recently had shoulder replacement surgery. The card opens to a personalized message on printer paper, cut out and attached to the card stock with double sided tape.
At a time when we are encouraged to stay home, making a get well, birthday, anniversary or thinking of you card is a wise alternative to making a trip to the store to purchase a ready made card.
There are so many ways to embroider cards–directly on card stock, on fabric which is stitched onto card stock or as shown above, onto felt which is stitched onto card stock.
They truly are fun and almost addictive to make. I’ve stitched Christmas cards,
and other get well cards, all which have been very well received.
All you need to get started is some card stock, rotary cutter, cutaway stabilizer and double sided tape. Instructions are detailed in an earlier blog post here.
