Cute as a Button Challenge

Over at Cardz TV Mary has decided to end the Crafty Cardz Challenge. However she did invite me to join her Cardz TV Design Team. This is my first project. The challenge is to make a project and to use buttons! This is what I came up with.

My card base is 4 1/4" X 5 1/2". I added a blue mat cut at 4" X 5 1/4" and then a white mat cut at 3 3/4" X 5".  I added a piece of patterned paper from a My Minds Eye paper pad cut at 2 1/2" X 3 3/4". I then added a piece of blue gingham looking washi tape.

I cut my steams from the Straight From the Nest cartridge. I cut two at 3" and one at 3 1/2". My "Flowers" are my buttons that I threaded some bakers twine through. Finally I added a green mat at the bottom cut at 1 1/4" X 3 3/4". I used an EK Success border punch on it and stamped it with a sentiment from Cardz TV Simply Said stamp set.

Sure hope you will join us and play along with the challenge.
