This week's CAS challenge is to use fabric. I took a piece of the Ribbon Carousel's 2.5" Natural Burlap ribbon, folded it in half and cut out a half heart design so that the sides would be somewhat even. I did pull out a few pieces to give it a shabby look. The sentiment is from Paper Sweeties' You Make Me Smile set.

Absolutelu stunning, Andrea. I need to get some burlap as I love everything I see with burlap. What's interesting is your ability to keep this so delicate despite the rough nature of the fabric. It's so beautiful.

If there is anything called "rustic elegance", your card is IT, Andrea! Love the contrast of the coarse burlap heart and the fineness of the rhinestone button and lace ribbon. Beautiful and creative!
