Christmas Cards - Christmas Kiss

A Christmas card to stitch: Margaret Sherry's two hedgehogs touch noses under the mistletoe, wrapped in red and green scarves with little boots in the snow. Back stitch picks out the outlines and the faces, while the ice blue fabric is left bare as a wintry background.

16 count Aida has a close weave, so the design stays small and detailed: good light helps, and a magnifier if you use one. The card mount and envelope are included, so the finished piece can be mounted and posted straight away. All you need to add is a pair of small scissors and, if you prefer, a hoop.
