I have used this week's wonderful sketch for my teapotter's card and this also fits for the Ways To Use It Challenge to use buttons.
Our cards this week are for Harriet in Derby, Kansas. She is a friend of Sheri and needs some cheer. I stamped the florets with Baja Blue & Chocolate Chip ink and have popped them up, using dimensionals, on the stem.
TFL!!

I need to actually use the flowers from that set!! Great use of the sketch to make such a pretty card for Harriet. And I like your two buttons echoing the two pretty flowers, and the contrast between that watercolour-like paper on the right and the crisp white main panel.
