Best Wishes - Greeting Card
CROSS STITCH PATTERN READY TO DOWNLOAD, DESIGNED BY Monique Bonnin

Cross stitch greetings with a vintage touch.

Here is another exquisitely designed greeting card by Monique Bonnin, a French designer renowned in her home country for her lovely embroidered postcards, retro style.
 
The card is filled with charming little needlework detail, golden seedbeads for the mistletoe, red glittering sequin for the holly.
The small branches of foliage are worked in lazy daisy stitch, an easy and super cute embroidery stitch mimicking the shape of leaves and petals.

Optional: the outer frame can be stitched in golden thread (photo) or alternatively in 2 shades of cotton, if you do not like to use metallic threads.
