Thanks, Julia for a fabulous challenge!!!! As soon as I read today's Ways to Use it challenge today, I knew I wanted to and combine it with the Flourishes Timeless Tuesday button challenge(FTTC2) for the week.
I have been making a lot of CAS cards of late. Why? These cards are the HARDEST cards in the world to make to me!!! LOL!!!! I tip my hat to all you CAS PROS!!!!! For me, it is easy to throw layers and stuff on a card and have it look okay, but when you get down to the bikini of cards...there is NO HIDING!!!! I find the CAS simply challenging!!!!
Fabric!!! I have had these fabric swatches my sister gave me for well over a year. I do not think I have made anything with them...until now. This striped fabric actually had the pinking edge already there. I selected some cardstock that matched it and I was on my way. I am using Flourishes, LLCSpring Ephemerals set. One can never go wrong with this set. I should have picked it up first.
Currently I am without a CUTTLEBUG!!!!! I am really down to the bare minimums it seems!!!! You must read my blog to find out about the absence of the bug and why....lol!!!

WOW! This is gorgeous. I didn't even think to use my pinking shears. Great idea.

Lovely card, Betty. The corner punch is the perfect touch of colour. Love the buttons to.
