Buttons & Bows

Dig out your stash of buttons and do like I did...spend an hour sorting into colour groups! LOL! This week at Isabella's Challenge we want you to use at least one button and one bow, or you can use as many as you want.
 I've used Kaisercraft Lush papers, stamped the green background with a SU swirl stamp, ribbon & buttons from my stash, swirls from Tim Holtz and sewed with my machine.
 The image is from Isabella's Sketchbook, its called "Waiting". I've coloured with copics and used some craft pebbles for a textured floor. She's standing on chunky carpet!LOL!


Once again my teamies have thrown together some gorgeous cards to inspire you so hop on over to the challenge blog and check it out. Remember, you need an Isabella image to enter. There are 2 free images to win every week  and a freebie in Isabella's store if you need a starting point.  Once we get over 9 entries, there will also be a special " Isabella pick" for extra prizes.  So come and join us!
