I made a Classic & Elegant style card using a favourite colour combo of Pool Party and Soft Suede. I layered the Hardwood panel onto a Soft Suede mat and adhered it to the front of a 5 3/4" square Pool Party card base. I die cut two fabric flowers, popped the smaller one up over the larger flower and added a punched circle and a button to the centre. I die cut two leaves, shaped them a wee bit before adhering them and I popped the fabric flower up over the top. I stamped and die cut the sentiment, popped the Very Vanilla banner up, wrapped the ribbon around the card and added two buttons. To complete the card front I added two aqua nailheads to the sentiment banner.
I then had a happy time stamping and punching a selection of buttons using the SU! 'Button,Button' set to decorate the inside of the card and the envelope flap. I stacked the buttons up to make them a bit more dimensional.
So that's what I came up with, now it's over to you! It would be great if you joined us at House of Cards and make a CAS or Classic & Elegant card featuring one or more buttons, I look forward to seeing your cards!
