supplies: seafoam and kraft cardstocks, papers from Simple Stories Harvest Lane, Echo Park This & That and Happy Days, October Afternoon 9 to 5 buttons, jute twine, Sizzix little flowers embossing folder, Scrapbook Adhesives 3D foam squares
My strips are 1/2" and the majority of the papers are from my Simple Stories Harvest Lane paper pad, which also provided the center image - its sentiment could not be more perfect! I used a little floral embossing folder to emboss the patchwork background before attaching it to my card base.
Entering this into the Moxie Fab World's Paper Crafting Tips & Tricks Week: Journaling Cards challenge.
Lin, that quilted background is fabulous. The embossing really makes it look realistic.
