Love to Scrap! Challenge Blog-#26 Buttons and Bows

Good Monday to everyone!!  Yes, I know it's Monday, but try to be postive here!  It's another wonderful challenge at Love to Scrap! Challenge Blog.  For the next 2 weeks, we want to see buttons and bows on your projects and as always, there must be stamped/digi image or sentiment on your creation.

We have two wonderful sponsors for this challenge.


Stitchy Bears Digi Outlet winner will receive $10 gift certificate.


Fresh Squeezed Stamps winner will receive the Friendly Folk Stamp set.


This challenge I found difficult, not the buttons and bows part, but the using what was already stamped for me to create something.  I created a card using Fresh Squeezed stamp set Trendy Triangles.  (We just found out the store is closing and this stamp set is gone).  


I decided to color the triangles to match the dp I used, then fussy cut them out.  This triangle theme just emerged.  The birthday sentiment is attached to a cardstock covered mini chipboard pennant.  I decided the pennant was perfect for the buttons and bows.


Here's the inside.  The sentiment is from MFT Birthday Sentiments set. 

Hope to see your creation in our challenge!
