Pair of Spice Cake Button Cards

Here are a couple of cards I made using the Spice Cake Designer papers and matching/co-ordinating buttons.  Plain cardstock was used for the card bases and then Pear Pizzaz and More Mustard card layered on top with a piece of velvet ribbon put across the line between the card colours.  The corners of the bottoms of the cards were then rounded off.

Four circles of various designs of the Spice Cake papers were then punched out and a matching button put on top of one of the paper circles, with a little linen thread put through the button first.

The cards were then personalised with the Happy Birthday stamps.  So simple, but very good, particularly for those akward mens cards!!

Stamps - Happiest Birthday Wishes (Hostess only set - £16 in clear)
Paper - Spice Cake Designer Papers (pg 10 of the Spring Mini - £9.95 for 24 sheets of 12x12)
Cardstock - Pear Pizzaz (page 90 - 2010-12 In Color range £6.25 for 24 A4 sheets or you can buy a set of 20 A4 sheets of In Color card range for £6.25) and More Mustard (page 93 - £6.25 for 24 A4 sheets or you can buy the Regals Collection of 20 A4 sheets for £6.25)
Ink - Soft Suede (page 94 - £4.95)
Accessories - Velvet ribbon (page 11 of Spring Mini - £6.95 for approx 9.14m of 3/8" ribbon), Linen Thread (page 107 - £3.75 for approx 13.7m ), Corner Rounder (page 118 - £6.25) and Spice Cake Buttons (page 11 of Spring Mini - £6.50 for 15 very large buttons)


If you would like to purchase any of these items, please contact me.  For instance, if you bought the Spice Cake Papers, Matching Buttons, a pack of 12x12 cardstock (instead of the A4), the inkpad, ribbon, thread and corner rounder this would come to £47.10 and you would be eligible for a free Sale-a-bration gift which includes stamps and designer papers.  You would then have a good base to start crafting from.

At last I have managed to open up all my goodies from my demonstrator kit and add the photos, so here goes.............
