Soaring by to say hi.

I just love me some buttons, you know, so I pulled out my Everyday Button Bits and proceeded to make this card.

First, I stamped the "grass" image with Ripe Avocado ink on Vintage Cream paper and the balloon baskets with Dark Chocolate ink. Then I cut /embossed them with a Classic Square Nestabilties die and matted it with Dark Chocolate. Then I tied the buttons on with Vintage twine and popped it up with 3M foam squares on the base. I think the rest is pretty self explanatory--this was a quick and fun card!

Thanks for dropping in today!
