Beautiful Buttons

Hello Everyone! I hope you are well. I have been suffering with a nasty cold this week which my Son gave me. It has been hanging around for a few days now and I am hoping I can get rid of it this weekend! I have a little card to share with you which I made to enter the Hobby House March Challenge. I have been doing a lot of blog hopping and spending a lot of time on Pinterest to get some imspiration lately and I was inspired to make this card when I saw the Hobby House Challenge theme which is buttons.



I received this hexagon die a couple of years ago as a Christmas present and I had never used it. I decided to use it to die cut a panel of kraft card which I added to a kraft card base using foam pads.
I stamped a My Favourite Things sentiment onto another strip of card and stitched along the long edges before adding it to the card. I added some Hobby House roses to the left of the sentiment and some striped Ribbon Girl Buttons which I threaded with twine. I loved making this card and I will be experimenting more with card without coloured images while I get my colouring back up to standard!
I hope you have a lovely Weekend and I will be back on Sunday with another card.
