Thanks so much for a fantastic challenge, Amber! I love texture of any kind on cards.
I sewed two pieces of canvas fabric I had (left overs from a big shot bag that I made) together and then glued them to my card. Then I added the strip of ribbon. I tried to do a sewn border around the whole thing but the glue underneath kinda kyboshed that idea...thread kept breaking, Brandi almost threw her machine out the window, moving on...;)

WOW... Brandi. This is stunning. Firstly, I LOVE the color scheme. Secondly, love Awash with Flower on its own in a panel like this - really fabulous. The ribbon brings the whole thing together.
Amazing job

Brandi, what a fabulous idea to integrate fabric with your card. I love the contemporary feel to it. Perfect use of the ribbon, too. I know exactly what you mean when you said you almost threw the sewing machine out. I didnt that was a bad idea and just dont sew anymore.
