SC389-Friend

Photo Details

Poster: MattsGirl

What a wonderful sketch challenge this week! Thank you so much Korin! I decided to use my button card stamp set that I have had for quite some time and not used. I used some extra buttons instead of a flourish up the side. I did sew on this card and I had a little trouble with my machine (I think it may have been the part in between the pedal and the machine....lol). Anyway, I had lots of fun and can't wait to see everyone else's creations! Thanks again! :)

Wonderful look of an old-fashioned button card....but with the cutest flowers with button centers. I like the garden feeling with your choice of colors to go with the flowers. The 3 scattered button finish it off.
