For the WTUI challenge this week, which you can find HERE.
With thanks to Di for both the paper and the buttons. DH really liked this, he thinks it's one of the best cards I've made, which left me feeling a bit miffed because there is so little to it. Except that it's one of those CAS designs which took several takes to get right....
I went looking through my button box, and had originally pulled out some other ones and then spotted these, and the design came together in my head. I cut strips to match each button from the corresponding paper, and then used circle punches to cut the ends. Laid them out on the card and added score lines, leaving room for my only vertical sentiment. Stuck the buttons on with hot glue, and added it to a base covered with a more solid design from the same pack of papers.

I am feeling miffed on your behalf LOL. As much as I love this CAS creation and your fun challenge, I would not have picked this as one of your gorgeous gems when I saw it in the gallery. You have 5069 cards in your gallery......I am in AWE Sabrina. Thank you for everything you do. xxx

Well DH mush have a certain style that he likes and this mush be it. I find so many of your cards quite brilliant I love this one too. I am not sure I could ever pick a single favorite of yours but I sure love this one too. Gorgeous design.
My husband is also a huge fan of my CAS cards. I don't even bother asking him if one of my more busy cards is good! I just scrolled up and saw Susie's comment and I do have to agree with her. I love this! Such a fun touch with the buttons but your entire gallery is amazing!

I love it, but must disagree with your DH. There are SO many of your artistic cards that throw me for a loop!! I like what you did here with the paper and buttons.

Cool way to add buttons to a project, Sabrina. I actually love the embossed lines separating the strips and sentiment, which looks so nice right where it is. Great job with this card~
