I designed this card first for a card swap with my demonstrator friends at Stampin' Addicts. As it dried, I realized that the Crystal Effects didn't give me the right effect that was in my head. I liked it, but it wasn't what I was picturing. Instead, I used an aquapainter to color the buttons. That worked. Unfortunately, I swapped them before taking a picture! I also changed where I put the punch, as I just thought it looked off where I put it here. See, cards can always change!
One thing I love about buying clear sets is that I placed all of the buttons on one large block, colored them with markers, and then stamped. They were perfectly lined up each time!
Happy Stamping!
Very cute!!
ReplyDeleteLove this card, but I know the feeling of changing things up once I have it done
ReplyDeleteI'm a big button fan too! Perhaps I'll get to see your other button card in person.
ReplyDeleteThis is great! Now I'm thinking I should have bought it in Clear Mount instead of wood...
ReplyDeleteOOH - good idea with the clear mounts!
ReplyDeleteThis card is great!! Thanks for the tip!
ReplyDeleteVery cute Sara! Love how you mounted all the stamps on one block. I can't wait to get that button embosslit. I would add buttons to every card, but I'm too stingy. But if they were made out of paper, I could!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the tip, Sara! I keep forgetting that seriously important feature of clear mount stamps. Can't wait to play with this stamp set.
ReplyDeleteCool card! Great tip with the clear mount stamps!
ReplyDeleteI love those buttons too!! Pretty card :)
