Cute As A Button - AHSC #246

For this type of sketch I'll usually go to my design paper zip strips to see what would inspire me; but instead decided to go through some of my border dies and chose some button dies. I knew what my theme was "cute as a button" and all I needed was some pretty colorful paper and colors that would fit a girl or a boy.  Some of the buttons cut off of the border I used as additional embellishments in the bottom r-h corner.  



I didn't have a stamp for the sentiment so went to Design Space and found exactly what I needed, layered it and placed on the same paper as my background paper.  

I was pleased and thought my card turned out as "Cute as a Button"

Great idea to use buttons as the lines for the sketch... this one was tough to be creative with that limitation. Love that idea. The sentiment is perfect to go with the button theme!
