1. Purchase “card stock weight” paper cards/envelopes. | |
|
2. Hoop “Sticky Paper” in the appropriate sized hoop and remove the top layer. Be sure your design fits on the card measurements. |
|
|
3. Secure the paper card onto the “sticky paper” in the correct position according to your cloth setter. The card is free of the hoop. |
|
|
4. Slide a layer, two or three of stabilizer under the hoop – stabilizer touches the machine. The number of layers depends on the denseness of the stitching. |
|
|
5. Start stitching. |
|
|
6. Remove the hoop from the machine.
| |
|
7. Remove the card from the hoop and trim stabilizer and “sticky paper" from the card.
| |
|
8. Cover the stitched design with either some of the pretty scrapbooking papers or use “heat and bond” or other adhesives on a coordinating fabric. Glue the paper or iron on the fabric.
| |
|
9. Be sure to sign the card on the back with your name/date. My cards say Machine Embroidered by (my name)
