How to add prick and stitch words

The first step is to install a Stitching Cards font on your computer.

There is a free sample font in the free patterns section of the web site.

When your font is installed open a word processor program such as Microsoft Word.

Select the Stitching Cards font in the type selection box.

Set the font size to a number somewhere between 30 and 50.

Type the greeting you would like to add to your card.

Print your greeting on paper.



Place your greetings card on a pricking mat. Position the printed greeting on it where you require the words.

Prick out the words and stitch them using the font illustration as a guide.
