Congratulations Embroidery Kit

Handmade congratulations cards are a great way to show someone how much you care about them. They're also a great way to commemorate a special occasion that deserves a ‘congratulations’, like an engagement, birthday, wedding, graduation, new baby, new job, new home and many more life events.  With an hour of time you can create a beautiful keepsake that will last a lifetime.  Each flower comes with three sentiment tags:

• Congratulations
• Married
• Thank You 

This Congratulations card embroidery kits come complete with a pre-printed design and instructions for easy DIY. Simply choose a sentiment tag, hand embroider the design, cut out the flower shape, write a note on the back, add a silky ribbon and seal it in an envelope. It's that simple!  They're easy to create and look beautiful when finished, as well as being completely suited to a novice who has never embroidered before!

A standard kit comes with one flower but you can also choose kits containing two or three, handy if you have a few people to thank or congratulate!  You can add a personalised message by writing on the back of the flower in pencil.
