After making the Mother's Day card yesterday I decided to keep working with the buttons…..it's so much fun working with them. I encourage all of you to give it a try!
I used the Favorite Thoughts stamp set from the Summer Mini Catalog with the Island Oasis Designer Paper. Buttons are the same as yesterday….the Sherbet Designer Buttons.
I stamped the greeting with Black Stazon ink and sponged the edges with Pumpkin Pie Ink. I used embroidery thread with the buttons and attached them with a Mini Glue Dot (don't look to closely I should have lined them up better).
I've had a few ladies ask how I mail these cards….it's simple. Just cut a piece of heavy card stock or the white cardboard that comes with the Designer Paper and make a sandwich. The card in the middle and the cardboard on each side. And when you package it like that you do not have to add additional postage. As long as it fits through that thingy they have at the post office, extra postage is not required.

Lovely card. I love the colors you have used here!
Angie nice card but I have a suggestion on mailing the cards without adding extra weight. all you do is turn the card inside out so that the embellishments are inside! That’s what I do when my cards have some bulk.
