Christmas Card Luminaries

 Christmas Card Luminaries:

1. Cut all four cards into 3 1/2" by 5" rectangles. You can really do any size you want

2. Poke holes with the pin in the picture where you would like more light to show through (exp. lights on the Christmas tree, outline an image, frame an image with a square) refer to pictures

3. Punch holes on the left and right sides of cards. Make a template hole punch card so the holes will line up for sewing.

4. Blanket stitch all four cards together, one at a time (should look like a cube)

5. Add a tea light candle in glass holder in the center of the luminary. Done

Success tips: *Don't punch holes to close to the edges or they will rip while sewing
*Don't use images with writing on the back of them (it will show through when lit)
