    Hi All
    I started nearly 4 designs to do string art.
    But finished these two only.
    I have used backside of invitation to make this card.
    Made free hand sketches and worked through.
    I have given the procedure in one of old threads.

    Thank you.
    Regards.

    Hi Nithu
    Thanks for your appreciation.
    I have given link in my post for the procedure.
    This work is not complicated shakehead but need patience and have to string through holes made on the card.
    First one I had a clear cut idea of what to do and how to do.
    :iagreeThe second one - coconut tree I started with some idea but ended with something else.
    Anyway thats how sometimes happens!!

    Thank you Anjali.

    Hi All
    Coconut tree thread work - string art has already been displayed in my other thread. Here again presenting before you as I have mounted it on an old wedding card.

    The second one is a cross stitch motif mounted on an old invitation card cover over which I have done corners.

    Have a look and post your feedbacks.
