Blackwork


 In Elizabethan times many fabrics were decorated with blackwork. A form of intricate embroidery  Its much easier to do nowadays using fabric for cross stitch. 

Although it was quite a fiddly piece I thought this pattern would look nice on a card. I attatched it to a white aperture then created a purple surround with black gems at the corners.
