OWH - Sketch #175

Here is my card for this week's sketch from Operation Write Home. I used four tickets from a raffle (that I didn't win), embossed woodgrain cardstock, linen thread and three wood buttons to form the base of this card.  I distressed all the items with chocolate chip ink. The plane is from the Sentimental Journey set from Stampin' Up!

  14. Hey! I love this take on the sketch! I was weeding out my embellishment stash this weekend. I found several "saved" tickets like that. Hmm, I'm glad that I didn't toss them now. "They must be good for something!" ... I thought... And here it is. :)
