Buttons for Mother

kth_mothersday2009buttons

It is time for a challenge over on the PTI forums. This time I opted for a simple challenge – use buttons. PTI recently began selling buttons that match their colors, can you say *yummy* 😉

Mother’s Day is fast approaching, and as usual, I am running behind. This card is for one of 3 women in my life. The one that doesn’t check my blog 😀

This is a very simple card. I cased the sentiment treatment from Gretchen’s card that I found in the PTI gallery. I added buttons, um, because that is the challenge. The background was done with Faux Ribbon – I *love* that set! This turned out pretty good, eh?

I even did the inside. This one was inspired because I didn’t want the ribbon to feel lonely inside. I try really hard to not have anything from the front be on the inside – ya know, brad prongs, splayed eyelets, and the like. Ribbon, for me, is ok though – because it is pretty 🙂 I continued the background on the inside and added a popped flower too.

Happy Mother’s Day
