Half a Dozen Buttons

Posted: November 22nd, 2011 by Jean

While looking for a button this morning, came across these little beauties ….

and decided right away I’d use them in a card.

The lighting is not great and the picture doesn’t do the card justice, but it’s a real little gem. I’ve used the Magnolia Lion and colored him with my copics. The inside reads HAVE A GRRRREAT BIRTHDAY. See the button? Perfect!

Copics used:  Mane - E23, 25, 27, 29; Nose - E 23, 25; Ears & Cheeks - YR 02; Eyes YG 06; Lion - Y21, 23, YR 23

My Mom is working on a cloth using these same colors. I’ve done a fair bit of hinting, so I’m hoping I might find this one under my Christmas tree.

Mom is eighty years old and her fanciwork is as beautiful today as it was twenty years ago - might even be better.

All those perfect little stitches!

And I do believe this little beauty, grandson Sam, is in keeping with today’s color combo. He is, without question, cute as a button!

Not quite sure where the time has gone. Lots of stuff put on the back burner these past few months but think I’m getting to a place where I can once again spend time doing some of the things I so enjoy - cardmaking and blogging being a couple of those things.

Nurse Gillian is a digital stamp available from Prairie Fairy Designs. I colored her with Copics and for sure this cheerful little nurse will bring a smile. I’m wondering about her thoughts - needle in one hand and bedpan in the other - seems she’s having a little too much fun! I’ve touched up her glasses with glossy accents and since taking this photo, I’ve also given her tiny pearl earrings.

Sadie is a digital stamp from Mo Manning. I’ve colored her with Copics as well and again - after the picture was taken - given her tiny pearl earrings. Love this image and had so much fun coloring her up.
