My card today was inspired by this card from the very talented Sarah. I know a lot of my readers also read her blog but in case you haven't stopped by her blog, go now and check it out. You won't be sorry.
Wouldn't this sketch be great for your scraps? I know I'll be doing something like this again. I'm not sure about the placement of my buttons. However, there's no going back now because the glue dots are very sticky and leave a residue behind that I don't think I could get off if I wanted to. Also, the buttons didn't photograph very well. They match the chocolate paper much better.
***Supplies***
Cardstock: Kraft
Patterened Paper: PTI Friends til the End
Stamps: CTMH Say it in Style
Other: PTI buttons, CTMH waxy flax
Does anyone have big plans for the holiday weekend? I'm not sure what we have going on. We're going to cheer on our friend tomorrow who will be walking a 1 mile race. After spending the last 15-20 years in a wheelchair, he's walking now. Albeit, very slowly, and with the help of a cane or walker, but he is doing it. After that, who knows for us. We'll probably hit the Greeley Stampede in town, which is a large fair and rodeo event with lots of yummy fair food and rides that make you sick.

Love your card, Alanna! I saw Sarah's card, too, and there will probably be at least one more take on this sketch as well at some point during the next couple of days.
I'm glad you are feeling better. Taking it easy for a few days probably helped. Enjoy the weekend! It sounds like you have some fun options.
You and I are on a kraft kick Alanna LOL...I love you card, that paper works great in squares. I think the buttons are just perfect.
Thanks so much for the shout out and nice comments about my blog!
I am glad you are feeling better.
Enjoy your Holiday weekend...It sounds fun!
Adorable card, love the pink and brown!
Sounds like you're in for a fun filled weekend! Enjoy and have a happy and safe 4th!
AWESOME card, Alanna! I love the Kraft with this paper...so classy! The addition of the buttons finishes it off very nicely!
I am glad you're feeling better. And I have to say, I got a little chuckle from your comment about 'the rides that make you sick'. LOL! Have a great weekend.
Great card Alanna - and thanks for pointing out this sketch - I may have to give it a try also!
Alanna this card is so pretty. I love the colors so much...might have to use that combo myself. Just lovely.

Stop on over and pick it up!
Love your card....It is really cute. Glad you are feeling better. Although it isn't holiday in Canada, we celebrated Canada on Wed. We took our family and some family friends came with us to Calaway park - an amusement park just outside of Calgary. The kids all had a blast - 7 kids ranging from 2-9.....There was something for everyone and NO ONE was cranky - not even the adults.
Great card! Love the colors.
I'm happy to hear you are feeling better and it sounds like you had the best medicine this week.
Hope you have a Happy 4th and don't get rained on!
This is beautiful! I so love that paper!
