<b>INSTRUCTIONS</b>

</div>
<p align="center">
For this project, there's a template (download below) for you to follow, <i>but</i> did you know that any of the<a href="/transferpreview.html"><br />
Sublime Stitching transfers</a> can also be ironed on to thick papers? It's true!
</p>
<p align="center">
<b>Tip:</b> When ironing transfers on to paper, try not to press the hot iron any longer than you need to, <br />
or the paper may curl. Also, be sure to keept he steam setting off. <br />
If the paper does curl, let it cool under a heavy book to flatten it out.
</p>
<p align="center">
<b>Step 1:</b> Download, print and cut out the tags from the attachment below. Use the template as a guide to first lay over the cardstock you'll be stitching. I suggest using a thumbtack (with your template and cardstock laid on a cutting mat) to make light, preliminary pin-pricks through the template before you make your final, to-be-stitched holes (next step).

</div>
<div style="text-align: center">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center">
<b>Step 2:</b> Follow the light pinpricks you made through the template, by passing your <i>unthreaded</i> needle, completely through <br />
from front to back (this is important!) over the dots.
</div>
<div style="text-align: center">
<br />
<b>Tip:</b> You need to poke from the from the front to back because the needle
will create a small, raised bur on the paper, and we'll be happier if
those are on the back side of the card, and not the top!

<br />

</div>
<div align="center">
<b>Step 3:</b>
Then work in a <a href="http://www.chroniclebooks.com/excerpts.php?isbn=0811843211&store=books" target="_blank">back stitch</a>, or a <a href="http://www.chroniclebooks.com/excerpts.php?isbn=0811843211&store=books" target="_blank">running stitch</a> (shown here). <br />

<div style="text-align: center">
<br />
<b>Step 4: </b>Attach and give! For my finished tag, I also worked the stitches of the star in alternating pinks. Classy, eh?
<br />
And, if you want your tags to enjoy re-use, you can write "For You" rather than personalizing the tags so that the recipient can re-use and re-gift your stitched tag! Although, they might not ever want to part with it...
