Simply Handmade by Heather: CR84FN 33

CR84FN 33

I can tell you that I love this weeks colors at CR84FN and I think you will too. Pretty pink, red, and a neutral. I am a little disappointed in how light the pink colored ink is on the top of the button card. I don't have anything in between this light of a pink and a brighter pink.

I used some of the Girls' Paperie paper along with the PTI set Button Boutique. I found some old vintage looking fabric in my stash that matched perfectly to the color combo so I cut it out using the die that came with the Button set. Border punch: Fiskars/ Effervesence, Seam Binding: Bluebird Lane Etsy, Ink: Memento Angel Pink and Martha Stewart Red Chrysanthemum, Buttons: PTI

Thanks so much for stopping by,
