ED185 MandalaCompleted by Donna Ritchie
OccasionI chose this colour way purely because I only own white rice beads but I love it! This is actually quite a quick card to make, too.
I slightly reduced the design so that it would fit on my 14cm base card and pricked all the holes. I used white and red variegated DMC threads, rice beads, seed beads and silver spacers.
I recommend stitching the outside circles at the same time as the 3 part line between them - stops the need for constantly stopping and starting your thread or having a LONG thread across the back of your work. I chose to continue with white as my contrast in the centre design, Emy chose to continue her gold accents - the contrast is up to you.
I completed this card by simply flat sticking it to my base card - no other ornaments are necessary. ENJOY!
