PTI March Blog Hop


It's the 25th and time for another Papertrey Ink Blog Hop!  This month's challenge was to use buttons!  I was never really a "button lover" as far as embellishments go.  (I know, I know!)  Ever since PTI came out with the button bits sets, I have been IN LOVE with buttons!  I have every single one of the button bits sets. 






















For my card, I used the Baby Button Bits set for the images and the Blooming Button Bits for the sentiment.  I used some Raspberry Fizz cardstock along with some PTI buttons and one Doodlebug polka dot button.  The bug just HAD to be polka dotted!  LOL  I also used the Polka Dot Basics II set to add a little border to the background.  I tied some Rustic Cream Button Twine through the buttons after coloring the images with Copic markers.  I added some Stardust Stickles to the bug's wings. 
If you'd like to see lots of inspiration using buttons, go to the March Blog Hop thread and click on the links to see what everyone's created!  Thanks for stopping by!  SUPPLIES USED:  Stamps- Baby Button Bits, Blooming Button Bits, Polka Dot Basics II (PTI); Ink- Raspberry Fizz, Fresh Snow (PTI); Paper- Raspberry Fizz (PTI); Accessories- buttons, Rustic Cream Button Twine (PTI), polka dot button (Doodlebug), Copic markers, Stardust Stickles;  Finished card measures 5.5"x4.25"
