My Cup Overflows

One of the member companies over at Splitcoaststampers is Crafty Secrets, and they posted a challenge this week to make a card using their "Cotton Scraps." This is a really fun product to use... I definitely need more of these! So I used today's Limited Supply Challenge which was to use your handwriting on your card, and a Cotton Scrap to create my thank you card!

Here's a close-up of the Cotton Scrap. I used a small piece of double-sided sticky tape to attach the Scrap to my cardstock so that it wouldn't move while I was sewing. Then I put this on my sewing machine, and did a quick, running stitch around the edges, and frayed all the edges after I was done. My ribbon is distressed with some Creamy Caramel SU! ink to age it a little and make it match the rest of the card better.Thanks for looking!

Stamps: mesh background (Rubber Soul); Cardstock: Red Hot, Mocha Divine (Bazzill Basics), cream (unknown); Ink: Versamark (Tsukineko), Creamy Caramel (Stampin' Up); Accessories: Kitchen Cotton Scraps (Crafty Secrets), red gingham (May Arts), ticket corner punch (Stampin' Up), sponge, dimensional adhesive, sewing machine, thread.
