That’s so cute. I would never be able to do it though!

Rebecca – YES you could. I promise it’s the easiest thing. It just looks hard because it’s stitching, but really all you do is punch holes in the card, stitch with thread, tie a knot… your done! I know you could do it. If you give it a try, let me know!
