For some strange reason, I have this little tub of misc. buttons. Yeah for me because today's challenge was to use buttons on your card. There wasn't a big selection in that tub, but hopefully the two I picked are okay. ............what I did.......
Sunday, for fun, I took a clothing magazine and stamped this daisy flower and leaves using versa mark and silver ep on different colored parts. Cut them out and waited for a time to use them Today was the day.
I used a colorful one for the back of the flower. I cut out two different sizes of circles, 3 each so I could layer them making them a little thicker. Sponged with sunshine yellow and butterscotch, doodling edges. Glued them altogether adding the orange button with thin jute in it.
Stamped the stem on cs, colored with bottle re-inker. Stamped the flower pot with pacific blue clear eb it twice, cut it out. Put this on some misc. dp that I sponged the edges with butterscotch then doodled.
Put this on some pacific blue cs that I sponged edges. Then put this on a white card that I sponged the edges with bottle.
Put my flower, stem and leaves together on the front. Added a button to the pot.
The little mouse wandered over from
Cindy's Teapot Party this last Tuesday. Check it out. She has a different teapot every Tuesday for us to be inspired with. We have so much fun!
Well, that is it for my card today......hope you like it........TFL :0)
