Secure the ends.

Continue with cross-stitches following the cactus template.
4
Attach double-sided adhesive tape onto a piece of card for covering the back of the embroidery. Press the two firmly together.
5
Make the reindeer following the same procedure as the cactus but don't attach a piece of card covering the back of the embroidery until you have sewn the pom-pom nose onto the front of the greeting card.
6
Cut out a pom-pom maker using the template. Attach two pieces of mercerised cotton yarn onto the pom-pom maker. Use the two pieces of yarn for assembling the pom-pom and for sewing it onto the front of the greeting card.
7
Wind mercerised cotton yarn approx. 20 times around the pom-pom maker. Lift the two pieces of yarn off the notch on the pom-pom maker, tighten and tie a double knot.
8
Cut open the yarn.
