One, Two, Three

The challenge at the Shabby Tea Room is to use 1 ribbon, 2 buttons, and 3 die-cuts or punches - what fun!  I actually dreamed about this one last night.  I wanted to use this wide ribbon and the music background, and the rest evolved overnight.  You might have to look really carefully to find my 2nd button, but it's there.  And since this card is blue and cream, I'm also entering it into the PaperPlay challenge for this week.


Supplies:  Hero Arts K5376 Hydrangea, S4878Old Letter Writing (on cream oval background), AR137 Script Messages, cream and aqua cardstocks, CosmoCricket Material girl and JoAnn's printed papers, Versafine onyx black and tumbled glass distress inks, Prismacolor pencils, Nestabilities oval and scalloped oval dies, Martha Stewart doily punch, ivory and pale blue buttons
