Cards for Andy and Giza

Photobucket

Done with badly-behaved stranded silks (they wouldn't separate), well-behaved white Madeira silk, lovely Madeira silver metallic, DMC gold metallic, DMC satin thread, and some bitty bows. On 6 count aida, which was a lot of fun to work with.

Birthday present for Mal

I made this for Mal's 25th birthday, which is tomorrow. Stitched mostly on my lunch breaks, but finished at home tonight. The dragon's belly and spines are Madeira silk, the backstitch is DMC satin thread. The main body green is generic Chinese brand.
