The Daring Cardmakers this week want us to make cards with buttons - but rather than just bunging one in a corner, we have to make them part of the feature image. The DT have some great samples with really quirky ideas for incorporating buttons, and as I've just got a new stamp set full of button images, I wanted to play along.
I was inspired by the phrase - "one in a million", and created a sentiment I could apply to my DH who does put up with a lot from me and this crafting lark! I created the sentiments in word art using cena font, applying a wave and a shadow to mimic the shape of my stamped buttons. Now I know there aren't actually a million buttons on my card, but I hope my idea gets the message across by featuring just one real button on my card. As it's a DL card, then I am also entering it into this week's CAS-ual Friday's 'the long and short of it' challenge which is to create a DL sized card but maintaining a lot of white space.
Back tomorrow for LIM and some more entries for the Crissy Armstrong DT call which closes this weekend.

Love the row of stamped buttons with the real button amongst them, fits the sentiment perfectly. Think my other half needs one of these too!
ReplyDeleteA wonderful card and the image and sentiment go well together,
