This card is for two challenges - both of which are near and dear to my heart. I've loved Off the Wall Craftiness since I found it. Kim's color combos are amazing, and some put me out of my comfort zone. Love that. Here is her inspiration again for this week's challenge, in case you forgot it since yesterday:
By the way, as I was tucking in my son tonight, I realized why I like this combo so much. It's the one that he has on his bedspread. Funny!
The other challenge that I love is the new one, CAS-ual Friday. I love being able to be comfortable completing a CAS card. I usually only have about 20 minutes to work in the evening since I do so while my son is bathing. It's always a good thing when he wants to splash around a little bit longer. Here's this week's challenge at CAS-ual Friday:
Buttons and twine...I can get into that!
Here's my card:
I used some of my new stamps from Paper Smooches - Vegtastic - for this card. The peas and sentiment came from them. I paperpieced the peas from the Bitty Dot Basics in Simply Chartreuse (Papertrey Ink) and then cut the peas out from a solid piece and popped them up to give them some dimension. The circle stamp is from Wilson Designs - Everything's Owlright - I heat embossed it to give it a little shine.
After securing down all of the paper, I threaded all the buttons with Rustic White twine.
By then, bath time was over, and I had to be done. So this is what I accomplished. I should rename my blog, "What I accomplish during bathtime!"
Thanks for visiting My Happy Place!

Cute, cute, cute - love the sentiment with the graphic and that row of alternating buttons. Thank you so much for joining us at CAS-ual Fridays and OTWC this week.
This is SO cute! So many of the Paper Smooches stamp sets are calling my name, but I keep hesitating because I wonder if I can make them 'work.' You've given me one more reason to *need* these stamps. ;)
