Mixed Media Thankful


Thankful!  A timeless message for us all.  

This mixed media card features a web ribbon background and a layered cotton fabric & ribbon.

The Antique Copper leaf is raised just a little inside the Antique Copper frame.  Pierce a thick piece of material (like chipboard; I used grunge board here) with an awl and then line up a hole punch and punch a circle.  Feed the leaf brad into the little circle to create a spacer.  A bit of cheesecloth helps fill the area in the frame.



When sewing the green resin buttons on the twill ribbon, I put a touch of glue behind the buttons so that the holes would stay level and stable.  The buttons are tied with a bit of Natural Thin Twine. 

I love these Creative Impressions buttons!  The colors are rich and the finish is matte resin.  You can ink them, stain them, even stamp on them!


Hope you like the card and I'm thankful you stopped by!
