Blooming Button Bits.

Just a quick post for ya' today - not much to say about these cards because they are soooo simple (for me). In a way they are not my style, however, I do love using lots of color, so maybe they are?

Anywho - just a couple of slight differences on these: I didn't like that I had that one hanging leaf on the right of my first card, but I did like this card, so I made another one that didn't bring out the OCD in me and have me thinking about it for 3 days. I also edged the first one in some Chamomile ink from Papertrey Ink and I didn't much care for that look on the Vintage Cream either. And lastly, I used a piece of Rustic Cream for my sentiment panel and for some reason that was bothering me too.

So I remade the card to be one that I really am pleased with. I've used Blooming Button Bits and then made my flowers with my EK Success circle punch topped with buttons. My grass is made from some paper that was in my stash - think it was the back of some October Afternoon paper, but don't quote me on that - and just edged with pinking shears.

I love the different colors on the buttons. And, I like it better without the extra leaf on the edge, too!

Ha! I love this card! Pops of color are so fun! Especially when everyone is hurryin Spring along. :) And I know what you mean, girl I would've chopped that little leaf right off the side of my card, LOL! Your card is just fine, but I think like you, it would've just bugged me. :) Lol... these ocd traits have to fade with age... let's hope. :)
