hello! I made this card today for the stef's great inspiration challenge. This weeks inspiration comes from the awesome etsy store site of aimoobaroo and her fabric covered buttons! Wow, so much beautiful buttons to choose from and I thought these lovely brocade covered buttons here: http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php...ng_id=33930958 were perfect inspiration for a final thanksgiving card, which i just popped in the mail before the postman got here yay! The rich tones and textures of the brocade buttons inspired me to use use the patterns on my card and hues of cream, olive, pumpkin and blue. I added some copper stickles to the cornucopia for a bit of sparkle and the wide gold sheer ribbon as well as 3 orange dew drops to accent. Thanks to Stef for a wonderfully fun challenge and tfl! have a great weekend my crafty pals!

Beautiful and rich, Linsey. I love the patterns you chose in your paper and the color scheme as well as those warm amber dew drops and copper stickles. I just had a quick "stroll" (how does one s-t-r-o-l-l quickly!!) thru your blog and loved your adorable lamp post card and those CUTIE winter hat cards you created last year and posted this year!!!
