Here’s the card I created for this weeks Elements of Style Challenge...

PPA 62 Button Button Who's Got the Button

I kinda kept the sketch from last weeks PPA challenge and went with it.  I got into those rounded corners.  I wanted something bright, with a chill in the night air, I just wasn’t ready to go with fall colors, yet.  Even though, with Stampin Ups Designer Series Buttons, how could you go wrong in any color. 

My Supplies for today...PPA 62 Button Button Who's Got the Button (2)  

  • Watercolor Trio for Sentiment (Retired)
  • Melon Mambo DSP, Brights Collection 117155
  • Whisper White Cardstock
  • Wild Wasabi Textured Cardstock (leaves)
  • Melon Mambo Textured
  • Designer Buttons from the Subtles Collection (Rose Red)
  • White Satin Ribbon 114616
  • Corner Rounder 109047
  • Ticket Corner Punch to make the Tags 119867
  • 2 Step Owl for the leaves and stems 117191
  • DMC Embroidery Floss for the Buttons

Yes, I did use Melon Mambo DSP and the buttons are Rose Red.  I didn’t know they were different colors until I went to write out my supply list.  But they match just fine. 

I had completely forgotten Watercolor Trio is no longer available.  But any sentiment from any set would be perfect.

I hope you enjoyed my card today and I can’t wait to see yours.  I would love it if you’d leave me a comment.  Any questions about any of my projects or Stampin Up, don’t hesitate to ask.  I’m here to help!!!  Hugs to all and make it an awesome day.  I’m off for the next 3 days... so you’ll be seeing me more.  I hate being there 5 days a week, this is so much more fun.
