Cross Stitch Key

Where can I buy replacement point cross keys?
I know it's an odd question that has never been asked here. I love cross stitch and I have a kit that I am trying to finish, but its a little hard to read the key. Does anyone know where I can buy a replacement key to be able to finish it? I do not know the brand, but it is called Astral Lions. Thank you for your help.
Wow, thats a question unusual! LOL! I'll try to help as best I can. On a lot of kits at the bottom of the list they usually have a phone number or address you can use to contact the designer / manufacturer. You should be able to ask them to replace your card with a larger version, or you can return the package to them. If this isn't an option, or you can not reach them, you can take the card to the local copier place where they should be able to blow it for you, and you get a legible copy. You may do it for your personal use but not redistribute or sell the model to others. If that fails, you can rename the color. This is not as hard as it sounds, but it's a bit of time, and you would need to start the model more colors may be different from those in the design kits. The fastest, least expensive option would be to take the place copier. It should cost less than a dollar, and if you explain what you need to, they have options that you have never heard of! There should be no problem for them to get you a legible copy of the list of the kits, if the design is in the symbols they must be legible enlarged and whether its in the computer color copiers have no problem matching colors. Good luck!
