And here's my card:
I have the Hero Arts Newspaper background stamp, and used it with Rich Cocoa ink on some white card, then distressed with Old Paper and Antique Linen inks.
I then created a button tag using Papertrey Ink's Button Boutique set, and some kraft card which I had stamped with the newsprint stamp in Tea Dye Ink.
The two little doilies were cut using MFT dies, and papers from Webster's Pages and MME Miss Caroline stack. Before adhering to the card, I stitched around the base panel in fawn thread, and wrapped some beautiful crochet lace and velvet ribbon around the base.
The buttons have been threaded with some burlap twine from The Ribbon Reel.
Finally I added the sentiment from PTI's Mat Stack 1, and some yellow pearls from stash.
I have used the colour palette from CR84FN this week, which has a colour theme of Yellow, Kraft and Grey.
Supplies Used:
Stamps: Button Boutique, Mat Stack 1 - Papertrey Ink
Paper: Neenah Classic Crest White - Crafter's Companion; Webster's Pages; My Mind's Eye Miss Caroline Fiddlesticks stack- The Ribbon Reel
Ink: Rich cocoa - Memento; Tea Dye, Antique Linen, Old Paper, Walnut Stain - Ranger Distress Ink
Ribbons: May Arts Antique Gold Velvet Ribbon, Cream Floral Cotton Lace, Button Twine Natural - all from The Ribbon Reel
Other: Buttons and Pearls from stash; Sewing Machine, Fawn Thread
