Button Buddies

 Have you had a chance to check out the new 2011-12 Idea Book & Catalogue yet?  How fun is it?!

And speaking of fun, here's a little card made using a new set Button Buddies (see page 47).  Attendees at the Melbourne Convention in May were lucky enough to receive this set for FREE (my favourite kind), and I have been hanging out to share it with you all.

The stamps are designed to coordinate with Stampin' Up!'s Designer Buttons, and as you can see, this little guy's nose would be the perfect place (if I had any of the buttons, that is).

I like the colour combination here - something a little "out there" compared to my usual safe bets.  I've used Wild Wasabi as the base, layered with Daffodil Delight and Rich Razzleberry, with the pig and punched shape in Blushing Bride.

And here's a closeup of the punched greeting layer ... gotta love this Decorative Label punch!  It goes with everything!
