For the July/August Challenge in the Art Challenges~ group at http://creativesouls.ning.com/. DMC floss backstitched on cardstock with Far East Matstack papers. Stencil designs by www.spraypaintstencils.com.
What really helped me finish this was Dan Goodwin's suggestion on Coach Creative Space http://coachcreativespace.ning.com/ to work on one project at a time through to the finish. Of course you can't always do that. Actually I think it was in one of his blog posts. This is just embroidery on paper or Dutch Embroidery. I just printed out the stencil designs and poked holes along the lines in pink, green and purple cardstock. I used black DMC floss on the dragon and variegated floss on the rose and stem. After sewing I stuck it all together with double-sticky tape. I used DCWV papers around the edges. Here are pictures of the process.
