Try a New Technique challenge----Create a card or project without stamps or digital images....hmmmmm O.K., this is my chance to use fabric. I have a wonderful piece of fabric with one of my favorite things...birds. It is from Crafty Secrets Heartwarming Vintage Collection-Cotton Scraps.
I am using a chipboard frame which I just placed across my ink pad to get a speckled design. Then, I computer generated the sentiment and used my modern label punch and hand cut a pennant to go behind it.
Fun challenge, Joan!!! Thanks.

Using fabric now are we? Don't you think that means it is time to get some sewing on your cards. Then, I will truly be green with envy. What a great creative card Benz. I love the bird fabric and your fantastic chipboard treatment. Your flower and sentiment pennant came out fantastic. Darn you again - maybe you izn't 90 after all. Hmmm....I'll check my current zatellite to make sure!

What a sweet vintage image, Brenda! Those birds are perfectly sweet and the chipboard frame is a wonderful background for them! Way to be creative using the fabric scraps!
