PDCC88

Happy Tuesday everyone!  Did you have a nice three day weekend?  (for those of you in the States)  We a lovely time with family and friends.  I realized yesterday just  how much my family means to me.  I have a small family, but one that is close and whose love is strong.  I know that no matter what we will always be there for one another and that is comforting in and of itself. 

Today I want to share with you a card I made for the Play Date Cafe's Challenge #88.  When I saw this picture, I thought, I got this no problem.  I thought of fun summer plates and place mats, beach tableware.  You know, that type of thing.  When I started on the card though, I had the hardest time.




My card measures 4x4 which is a size I love but seem to forget about on a regular basis.  I think because I don't have that size of envelope.  I went a bit crazy with the buttons, I just love them though!  Oh, and that ribbon!  Too fun I think!

I hope you have the happiest of Tuesdays.  I will be back tomorrow.  Thanks for checking in today :)

    I love the 4x4 size - you'll have to come up with a template and make your own envelopes! I love the buttons and the ribbon. So fun! :)

    Sometimes the simplest CAS card is the hardest to make! I love how it turned out, with the cluster of buttons in the corner and the banner 'waving'. THanks for playing at The Cafe with us!

    What a pretty card. Love the bright summer colours.
    Would you believe I don't think I have ever used buttons on a card :o

    I am amazed that you had buttons to match the colors - but I'm glad you do because I LOVE them! A great CAS card. Thanks for playing along at The Play Date Cafe.
