Vintage Finds!

Hello my dear friends...so it is Wednesday here, overcast with a big chance of rain (LOL I sound like a weather report) anyways, what that kinda weather means for me is to snuggle up inside and hopefully craft, after just a few little tid bits of work on the inside.

Today I thought that I would share a card that I created with some of my new goodies from Papertrey Ink....Oooooh! how I swoon over these gorgeous, yummy products.

I took some Aqua Mist card stock, trimmed size and ran the front of the card through my Cuttlebug, embossing the front with the Sunshine Impression Plate..setting aside to work on the rest of the card. More card stock, this time white, also running through the Cuttlebug, but cutting a die cut using the Button Card Collection die..stamping onto the die cut with the coordinating stamps, Button Boutique, adding Aqua Mist buttons to this die cut and adhering to the front of the card using foam dimensionals. Finishing the card off with some Bakers Twine and adding a sentiment from the Big Bold Wishes stamp set to a trimmed tag that was also adhered to the front of the card using foam dimensionals.

I loved creating with these goodies and cannot wait to get into the craft room and pull that stamp set out once again.

Now don't forget to check out my Giveaway, you have until Saturday, Australian Time to enter.

Okay, heading off now to get those little tid bits done and then jump on into the craft room.

Have wonderful day my sweet friends!

Just yesterday I was browsing the Papertrey Ink website and ran into the stamp&die set that you used to create these vintage button cards. They are sooooo so lovely! Maybe one day I can save up some extra money to afford ordering some of their yummie goodies as well.. right now the S&H for europe makes it just too expensive though. I bet you often run into the same trouble with S&H, since there's so much fun stuff from the States and you're in Australia :)
