Papertrey July Blog Hop Challenge



I'm happy to be able to participate in Papertrey Ink's July blog hop!! This month's hop theme is an inspiration challenge using this image:


I immediately thought of the Mabel color combo from MME's Stella and Rose line. It's perfect!!


I used the Button Boutique set, cut the panel with the Button Card Die, stamped on PTI Kraft with SU! Crumb Cake ink, added some PTI Terracotta Tile buttons some lace, and vintaged up seam binding. The sentiment says "Cute as a button." So CUTE!!!

Thanks so much for stopping by--I always love it when you do!

~Supplies~
Stamps: Button Boutique (PTI)
Paper: Kraft, Terracotta Tile (PTI); Mable 6 x 6 pad (MME Stella & Rose Line)
Ink: Crumb Cake, Soft Suede (SU!)
Accessories/tools: Vagabond (Tim Holtz); Button Card die, Medium Scallop die, buttons, twine (PTI); lace, seam binding, sewing machine
