When I saw this week's colour combo, it reminded me of last year's SAB papers, Ice Cream Parlor, which I decided I would pull out for this project. Then, I remembered we had matching buttons as well, shaped like little flowers, which inspired me to pull out the Button Buddies set and use the vase image, which I hadn't inked yet.
I kept this fairly simple. I drew inspiration for the design from a Page Maps card sketch (September sketches) and mimicked the row of ribbons. I handcut the scallops at the bottom of the patterned paper and then I decided that the top of the card felt a little bare, so I added a strip of silver glimmer paper.

Love the ribbon tabs. I never ended up getting the paper or the buttons from SAB and you're right, they fit perfectly!
