I think I love White Space!

Clean and simple is not really my thing. Well at least it wasn't until I joined in with this weeks Less is More Challenge - Ribbon or Button. Ok I have to admit it I think I am converted!!! I have really enjoyed looking at everyones entries this week and what a fabulous friendly bunch the Limettes are too!

So my first card included ribbon, this one features buttons.




I recently made a picture in a box frame with this button heart design in it for my craft room and thought it would work equally well on a card. Very quick to make as well, I just used glossy accents to attach the buttons and included a little paper rose to add a little bit of interest. I wish I had some square nesties to emboss a lovely deep square on the white card but I have improvised with my scoring board.

Stamp is from Roses in Bloom set by Waltzing Mouse and buttons are from Pretty Little Ribbon Shop.

Thanks for looking,

  11. The addition of that little paper rose in place of one of the buttons is truly inspired!

  12. Very lovely. I really like how you slipped in a rose instead of a button. Very clever and it really adds to the whole look.
    Well done.
