An all occasion card featuring a pieced background, fussy cut buttons and fiber


 I am really enjoying creating all occasion cards!!  They are perfect for more than one occasion so make a versatile addition to my stash!!  I will have more than I need!!  Is that even possible??
For this card I started with an aqua card.  I found a piece of coordinating paper in my stash, trimmed it to width and then tore it near the top.  I adhered the top piece to my card and then trimmed the bottom piece to fit on my card and adhered it into place.  There was a wide white strip on the bottom edge which seemed to need "something" so I trimmed some scraps of the same paper and added them to the white strip going in the other direction.  Love how it turned out!!  I fussy cut three little buttons which I found in my stash and tied coordinating green fiber in their holes using a long needle.  I mounted them over the torn opening in my background using 3D foam tape.     Therese
