Topic: Paper Embroidery
Assignment: Make a paper embroidery card with only red and black.
I started with the red paper doily by glueing it to a black card. Then I used red metallic thread to stitch the black ribbon border using Xs. When it was all stitched in place I tied the ends into a bow. Then I made free-form 5-spoke thread bases and wove the black ribbon through them to create ribbon roses. Finally, I used black thread to free-form stitch some leaves.
Here's the whole card:
I mounted it to a folded red base and added a thick clear acrylic sticker for the text (mounted on a red background).
Here's a closeup of the ribbon stitching:
And here's a closeup of the ribbon roses:
