Start with dyeing your cotton fabric, use tea bags and salt, or cheap instant coffee and salt for a slightly deeper colour. For the crinkled ribbon, use polyester seam binding dyed in tea, left squished up to dry.
These images show a quick easy way, using pinking sheers to trim, and a machine or hand sewing to finish after filling with polyester stuffing.
