Happy holidays everyone!
as always, this year i ended up getting lots of Christmas greeting cards from my dear friends and family, and i have such a hard time throwing them away. i actually found few from the last year attached on the refrigerator. i got an idea to recycle them and make nice homemade picture frames.
i measured piece of felt to fit to the size of the greeting card. allowed 1/4 inch space for the stitching.
then i crocheted the frame around the stitched felt. i used different color thread to separate the stitches, and added thread on top for hanging.
left one side of the frame unstitched to slide the card and the photo inside, 
the finishing touch was adding little purple butterflies at the edge with matching color thread as the stitching.
