Today's post was inspired by Gretchen Barron's card using the new Big Springtime Vintage buttons with the new Pom Pom trim. So cute! I just wanted to give it a try. Here is my card.
The card itself needs little explanation and went together pretty easy. I started with Natural White CS, and layered with some scrap olive DSP.
I stamped the flower leaves from the "Sweethearts" set in old olive ink on W.W. CS. I stamped a few more stems in old olive and added a few small flowers from other sets inked in tangerine tango and melon mambo. The little butterfly is from the SAB set "So Happy For You" stamped in tangerine tango. I matted this W.W. piece on pumpkin pie CS mat.
I pulled a center thread of some pear pizzazz seam binding and gathered it to give it a scrunchy look and wrapped it around the tangerine mat. I stamped the 'for you' from "Elements of Style" in melon mambo on W.W. and punched it out with a 3/4" circle. I punched a second 1" circle in melon mambo and glued the two together and then popped up on the seam binding with a pop dot.
Then I took a crumb cake Big Button and punched an orange circle from the Sweet Pea DSP {retired}and glued to the center with a glue dot. Then I wrapped the outer edge in sticky strip and wrapped a second time with the melon mambo pom pom trim. Aren't these pom pom flowers just so cute? I just loved how cute the pom poms look wrapped around the Big Buttons!! I attached with a large glue dot.
The inside is finished off with touches of DSP and colors from the front and I added a few photo corners punched in melon mambo.
Well that's it! Thanks Gretchen for the cute idea for using the pom pom trim on Vintage Big buttons.
