DeNami Beautiful Buttons Blog Hop!

Sunday, February 13, 2011

 Hello and welcome to your next stop on the DeNami Beautiful Buttons Blog Hop!
You should have come from Tenia Nelson's blog. If you are lost or want to start at the beginning,
just visit the DeNami Blog to get you started!

Buttons are definitely one of my favorite embellishments to use. For this card, I used the Decorative Crest and the Congratulations Script--which I think work SO well together! I decided I wanted one crest to be highlighted on one layer, showing through a die-cut circle. The top layer of cardstock was stamped 3 times at the top, and then the Congratulations at the bottom. I put a lot of dimensionals between the card base and the top piece of cardstock. To finish it off, the buttons were aligned horizontally, and some white lace added to the bottom. I really love this card! I think it's perfect for a wedding! I hope I've inspired you in some way! Leave me a comment letting me know what you think...you have a chance to win a DeNami gift certificate...you must leave a comment on EVERY blog on the hop in order to be eligible. Good luck and thanks for stopping by today! :)
