A Tree Full of Buttons at Diecut Divas

Over at Diecut Divas this month it is all about buttons and A Day for Daisies. This is my project encompassing both:
Diecut Divas, A Day for Daises Happy Tree

Card Tip:
Buttons are a great embellishment for card making and you don't have to spend a fortune. Make sure you check any clothing you maybe throwing out due to rips and tears, you can can get some great buttons this way as well as OP shops (if you have to spend $2-$3 for a shirt for the buttons I think it is worth it)

Card Ingredients:
Card Stock: White card base 4 1/4"x 5 1/2".
Papers: Pattern paper from stash (free with a magazine)
Stamps: A Day for Daisies Happy Tree (its free) and Gina K Designs Tripple Play Holiday for the sentiment.

  6. I agree with you on the buttons. It is so worth to cut them off when clothing is no longer usable. This card is very cute! Thanks for sharing at Craft Rocket Challenges! Barbara DT
