I'm off to a morning tea into town today to celebrate a friend's birthday - I have a strange feeling she is quite minimalist - but is definitely into buttons (makes lovely button jewellery for sale - so I tried to make a card with buttons and it just did NOT work! So after a couple of days looking at it and not at all happy, I carefully removed the buttons and replaced them with some Boho Blossoms instead and am so much happier with the result now. I really wanted to add buttons to her card as I feel it would have been quite appropriate, but maybe will re-think that project and leave it until Christmas time hehehe...
So, I tried to make it as CAS as possible, no ribbons or bows this time.

What I used:
Card: Red, Kiwi Kiss (retired), Pumpkin Pie and Daffodil Delight.
Ink: Old Olive, Chocolate Chip, So Saffron
Stamp Sets: Sweet Summer (retired), Teeny Tiny Sentiments
Tools and other fun stuff: Top Note die, Boho Blossoms punch, Scallop Border punch, Stampin' sponges, Stampin' Dimensionals, Stamp-a-Majig
I think I prefer the flowers.
ReplyDeleteI like the flowers Frances, but I like the buttons too - playing Devils advocate now :-)
ReplyDeleteFrances sorry I don't mean to sit on the fence but I love both cards.
ReplyDelete:) both are nice - but the flowers are calling my name just a little louder.
