A {Cute as a Button} Card...
Thursday, April 19, 2012
I've seen so many ladies on the CSS DT making cards like this. I just had to try my hand at it too. All those buttons are a little tedious since they are each threaded with a sliver of gray card stock. The whole time I was doing it, I kept hoping it would be worth all the trouble. I'll let you be the judge. I'm just not a person that can put a "naked" button on my card, it looks great on everyone else's cards, but looks half-assed when I try to do it. KWIM?
I had a lot of fun with my scoring board on this one. I think the diagonal lines look classy. That little stamp that is replacing a button says "too cute". I forgot to take a closer pic.
The sentiment panel is a label stamp, stamped in white and then cut out with scissors. I stamped the sentiment and then attached it under the button panel. I like the little look of whimsy, which is so not like me, LOL.
I'm subbing today in my son's 1st grade classroom. He is really excited about it. Hoping for a smooth day all around!
Have a great day!

Oh this is so cute. Love the Too Cute stamp mixed in there and the colors are darling.
This is adorable! I'm impressed with your patience with doing all that cardstock threading!
Love the buttons threaded with cardstock. Oh my gosh- that must have taken forever to do!!
