UP, UP AND AWAY


In an effort to use supplies and stamps that I already have and not used enough, I pulled out this cute stamp set from PapertreyInk which uses buttons as part of the design.  The card base is SU Green Galore and was run through the Cuttlebug with a Craft Concepts "Garden of Trees" embossing folder.   I thought the trees were a good choice to go along with the hot air balloons.

I cut a strip of PapertreyInk dp and edged it with a Martha Stewart punch.  The balloon part of the design was stamped with VersaFine Onxy Black ink and the "grass" was stamped with SU Green Galore ink.  I have a variety of buttons so I just chose colors that went well with the card stock I was using.  I chose a black mat for the design which I think really makes the image pop.

Thank you for stopping by!

Very cute, Vicki! Way to go with using up supplies! I have so many buttons and rarely use them. Such cheery colors!

From the pattern on  this  video you will get two cards with this layout.  These are mine. Thank you for coming by today!
