The Mojo Monday sketch had an embellishment in the bottom right corner. I was hoping I could find some large green brads, but the only ones I had were square and that didn't look quite right. So, I opted for some green Prima flowers and some ridiculously tiny buttons. One has to wonder why in the world people make such ridiculously tiny buttons and why in the world I felt the need to have them...way back when...and then not use them - LOL!
The paper I used is, unfortunately retired, Manchester by Stampin' UP! and the cardstock base is Kraft.
What do you think?

ReplyDeleteOh how cute! Love the image and the little buttons!

ReplyDeleteHi Christyne. Love the card. Really weird, I've been working on some home sweet home cards, with, wait for it: ridiculously tiny buttons! I recall I picked up mine when Cherished was closing. They made just the right decoration for a tree, and I was feeling too lazy to cut out flowers from stamped images. Funny about the background colouring, at first I though you had a little mulberry cause there's kind of a torn effect...
