Note to self - when sponging paper flowers with ink to help them match the paper, it makes it impossible to stick anything (i.e., buttons) to said flowers. I finally grabbed my trusty hot glue gun - success!
Thanks for looking!

What a pretty interpretation of this week's sketch! I love the look of gingham and flowers together, and your background print goes so well with the pink! Your sponging effort really paid off - the flowers match perfectly!

I love pink and brown together! Those button centres are look great on your custom dyed flowers. Those DP's really add a sweet country feel to your card. This is such an upbeat and pretty birthday card!
lovely card. Your soft pink flowers and the baby pink gingham look so good with your designer paper. It all comes together so well for a very pretty card.

Straightforward interpretation of the sketch and I love it! The colors and your button center flowers are really great on the gingham dsp. I like the BG dsp as well it ties all the colors together. Surprises me that your buttons wouldn't stick after sponging the flowers!!
