Hello and happy Sunday to you! Did you hear about the FABULOUS new product that Papertrey is going to be carrying???? Read all about the gorgeous new buttons in Papertrey's Perfect Match colors on Nichole's blog! These buttons are DREAMY, let me tell ya! Each bag has TONS of variety in the color variation, size, shape and design of the buttons! You're gonna LOVE them!! Hop over to Nichole's blog and enter to WIN FREE BUTTONS!!!
I also thought I'd share a photo of how I'm storing my lovely little buttons. I've got them in little canning jars. Each bag fits perfectly inside a half pint (8 oz.) mason jar which allows me to see the colors thru the jar. Another benefit is that the mouth on the jar is wide enough that I can dig thru the jar without having to dump them all out if I don't want to. ETA: I bought the jars in packages of 4 at Walmart (in the kitchen section) for just $3 or $4.
Nichole also announced that Papertrey will be sponsering the sketch this week over at the CPS (Card Positioning Systems) blog soooo in honor of that, I've made a card to share with you that uses that sketch! I used another fun stamp from the Simply Stationary set to create the fun heat embossed pattern and the sentiment is from the Heart Prints set.
As for that ruffly ribbon, I adhered it to the back of the spring moss card stock using glue dots, bunching it up as I went along. I put a piece of tape over the whole thing to secure it and then adhered it to the card front with foam dimensionals, being sure to put a few dimensionals along the ribbon line to make sure it doesn't come loose.
A few of the other Design Team members have more fun projects to share with you today. Check 'em out!
Tonight is the night!!! Be sure to check back for the first sneak peek at my new stamp set! For those of you that might want to stay up for it, the post will go live at midnight EST Sunday night! See you then!
