Buttony Thanks


Hi everyone - another clean and simple design to share with you today! A couple of days ago I needed a pair of quick thank yous - and only wanted to take a short break from studying, this is what I came up with.

I used the CR84FN colours for this week - they just looked so bright and fresh.


Simple but effective! To create the background for my button die cuts I masked an area with long thin post-it notes, stamped the polka-dot background, then used a kraft marker to draw in a couple of border lines. I love the subtle tone-on-tone effect.


I used the leftover buttons to decorate little envelopes. Have a wonderful day, thanks for visiting!


Colour Combo: Daffodil Delight, Pumpkin Pie, Kraft Stamps: Sweet Little Sentiments, Polka Dot Background (SU) Dies: Buttons #5 (SU) Punches: Corner Rounder (SU) Other: Linen thread, Dimensionals, Kraft marker (SU)
