Happy Friday J, I am looking forward to 2 days off over the weekend.
I had such fun making this card, it is actually a retirement card for a
friend at work. She takes care of all the background but vital stuff, she has
one of those Staples easy buttons on her desk. I don’t think I have ever
visited her desk without finishing our conversation by pushing on that silly
button after a number of years that is just a few ‘That was easy’s’.
This card has been brewing in my head for
weeks and weeks as her Retirement day gets closer and the other day I found that
easy button on my desk with a sweet little note attached and I knew that my
card would be perfect.
I wanted a simple or basic card so I used lots of layers, I am loving my
Spellbinders circle dies right now. I created the layers base first then created my easy button.
I used my Silhouette for the letters and heat embossed the top layer of the
button with clear embossing powder. I have lots of foam tape between the layers
to build up the button.
Supplies: White, black and red cardstock, Designer Paper – Crate Paper,
Spellbinders.
Cheers,
Nina
