Every time I start thinking that I'm getting better at tying bows, a thick satin ribbon puts me back in my place. Now here is a last minute Mother's Day card. It's for my mom because we love buttons. So whenever I see the sentiment "Mother's are like buttons, they hold everything together" I think of her. I took some inspiration from this card by our Featured Stamper, picard76. I liked the color scheme and the layout for my button card. I decided I wanted a blue background and white letters and I was nervous that my printer would not agree, but it came out good. I see now that I forgot to erase the original outline of the heart that I drew in pencil as a guide for my buttons. Oops! I'll have to go do that now.
Thanks for the inspiration, Jenn, you have a lovely gallery!

Jen, this is a gorgeous Mother's Day card with the heart formed with buttons, and how true are the words that moms hold things together! You're funny about your bow! It is a great one, Jen!
