Button it!

Whoop I managed to get a card done.  Christmas was such a busy time for me that I have not had much of a chance to get into my craft room.  So, it’s the first Wild Orchid Challenge for 2014 and this week all ya have to do us is a button.  Nice and easy.

I picked up this pack of Papermania paper whilst out mooching the sales (what a load of rubbish they were too!) so it was the first thing I reached for when I sat down to make this card on Saturday.

    Very pretty card and yes, darker colours than you normally do, I like it. Have seen these papers and embellishment collection in our local Range shop and have resisted so far but seeing them made in to your lovely card I might just have to treat myself. lol.
