Congratulations

shabbybuttons

EEKK!!!  They finally arrived!!  My February PTI order is finally here!!  Don’t ASK about the LONG story of this…I’m trying to forget it and just enjoy a new found love…the Button Boutique stamp set and dies.  What a perfect set for a button-lover!!  Perfect for all those BIG buttons that you don’t know what to do with :)  My colours are inspired by The Shabby Tea Room’s Spring Colour Challenge.  How beautiful are these eggs in the inspiration photo?

sunday 10th

I thought the buttons mimic the idea of eggs and Basicgrey’s Kioshi paper is the perfect match to ground the card.  Well, it’s late morning and I haven’t even done my workout yet or started the house cleaning…better get onto that!!  Then it’s a big stampfest as I get ready for the new Verve Release coming up…Spotlights start on Tuesday :)  Have a wonderful weekend and thanks for all your sweet comments :)

Nothing like a two month wait for an order, huh?!! I feel your pain as one of my Verve orders took that long - the one with the flowers at that!!

Love your take on the insp. piece. Enjoy playing in your studio this weekend - can't wait for the sneak peeks :)

You are amazing! That color combo from the inspiration picture is egg-celent and your darn use of that ribbon is oustanding. You really must teach me your flower/bow seam binding goodness!
