Valentine's Day Card - Part Two

I have an update to my Valentine's Day card project.  You may remember that I am making with the front part of the card with embroidered fabric.

Once I had the fabric trimmed to the size I wanted, I needed to figure out how to finish the edges.  I received so many helpful ideas in the comments section - thank you all!  I decided to try stitching with black embroidery floss around the fabric, close to the edges:

I measured in 1/4" from the raw edge and did a running stitch all around. 

 I used black floss so that it wouldn't distract too much from my white stitched picture.  This also solved the problem of how to attach the fabric to the paper.  I just stitched through both layers.

Here is the inside flap of the card, you can see the underside of my running stitch {and all the needle holes ;) because I kept changing my stitch spacing}

I have a really fun idea to finish this up and I will post about it soon!
