Just a little something...

TGIF! Thanks so much for all the birthday wishes yesterday. We are actually going to my brother's house tonight to celebrate my birthday, my Mom's birthday, and it's a housewarming party for my brother and sister-in-law. Are you still with me? Anyway, I need a housewarming card. Since I don't really know what I'm getting them yet, I know it's going to be "just a little something". This card came about because of the limited supply challenge today at SCS which was to use a die cut as your focal point and only sentiment stamps. So this card uses a bunch of dies (see supply list at the bottom). I used some stickles on the flower and leaves to brighten things up a bit.

Hope you all have a great weekend and thanks so much for stopping by!


PS. It looks like you all really want to learn how to use buttons with shanks (yes, there is a term for the buttons with the loop on the back!!!) on your cards. I'm planning a tutorial but have to wait to get the 'go-head' from Paper Maniac. If you have no idea what I'm talking about, read this post from yesterday.
