Buttons and Flowers

Hi to all,  gosh today has really gotten away from me just don't know where the day has gone and boy is it feeling cold I think that is why my brain just won't get into the right gear not to mention the headache that's been building all day, oh well not to worry have my tea, take a tablet and I'll be fine but before I do any of that here is what's on offer to show from this weekends attempts. The theme is buttons and for this I have made my own background stamp and this also made the backgrounds that I have punched the flowers out of, I used red and blue ink pads, ribbon and lace, red spiders web for the bow, Spellbinders dies for the corners and label which were cut out of Kraft card and of course small buttons which I have added to make the centres in the flowers. Along with the card I thought I would make a matching gift bag.......

Ink pads I used.....
Faded Jeans, Chipped Sapphire, Festive Berries Distress Ink pads and also a Memento Ink Paris Dusk.
The flower punches are Woodware Daisies in different sizes.
Off now to have my tea or should I say cook tea for everyone else. keep wrapped up if you are going to venture outdoors this evening for bonfire night, myself will be indoors where it is warm and cosy eating chocolate maybe...

Love all the cards you've all been making - have missed being there! Will be back in a week or so, my recovery from the op is going really well! xx
