Bordado

Angel Creations

Bordado modifies the basic techniques of embroidery for use with paper products. Patterns are pierced into paper using a tool. The design is then embroidered using embroidery floss and/or metallic thread. The result is a striking three-dimensional effect, delightful to behold.

Each card comes with a loose insert. You can either handwrite your own message, or run the insert through a printer to write a message using your computer. When finished, you can tack the insert to the card using a glue stick.
