This card came together in a flash. Looking at the weekly challenges online this morning, the CAS(E) This Sketch challenge #151 caught my eye and I knew there was something interesting to be done using the circle grid sketch. As I was working on other projects, the Claus & Co paper from Simple Stories caught my eye, as there is a patterned paper that has lines of circles and I thought it would look fantastic on a card. I cut a panel and decided to keep the full height to keep as many circles as possible, so I went for a 6" x 3-1/4" card.
The Red Glimmer Paper circle was sitting on my desk from another project I didn't use it on earlier today, and as I was looking through my green buttons, the Big Designer Buttons we used to carry caught my eye and fitted great over the glimmer circle. I threaded Black Baker's Twine in it, then added a stamped and punched sentiment from the Project Life 2015 Seasonal Snapshots stamp set. A bit of Old Olive Trim finishes the card off. Super simple, but the fun paper really makes the card.
