I loved the simplicity of it, and thought it would make for a really quick note card for those times you need to jot a note and put in the mail really fast. I turned the card horizontal, changed up the color, changed the sentiment, and the button is made with MFT Die-namics. Love these button die's, so I was able to create a button that matched the 2 outside diamonds. I used twine instead of ribbon and decided to add a strip of paper that matched the inside diamond to the bottom of the top panel to tie it all together. I distressed the top panel and called it done. (Thanks again, Karen, for the inspiration)
For the ways to use it, we were not allowed to use white, black or brown ink, so the faux stitching is in green, and the sentiment is in green.
Thanks so much for stopping by, and I always appreciate your comments.

Beautiful! I absolutely love argyle! Great layout and very nice how the button is a perfect match with the outside diamonds. MFT has some great die-namics.

Oh Barbie - another beautiful CAS for Karen!! I love the simple strip of paper at the bottom, love the distressing, and love that this beauty has a bit of a masculine feel if needed for a guy. Love it my friend!!

What a creative card, Barbie. It has a "vintage" and argyle look to me with your perfect stitching lines over the diamond-shaped DP panels. Lovely CAS.
