Buttons, Buttons with Puns from the Past

 I used the  largest clear block to use to create my own background stamp.  It is so much easier than stamping each stamp over and over and over.  I used blushing bride and pear pizazz.  I just got the puns from the past stamp set and combined it with buttons, buttons.
My mom quilts and I couldn't wait to make some cards that showcases one of her favorite hobbies.  I cased the card from Lyssa and I love her design.  It was so much fun pulling out different ribbons and crochet trim to play with.

  7. So cute...I love clear mount stamps for this reason, but haven't tried making a complete background stamp with the little pieces. The embellishments really make this card!!
