frames for play date cafe


I had been going through my list of challenges and came across one I hadn't tried before so I gave it a go! Plus the Play Date Cafe colour challenge colours just made me happy! :)
And when I saw that this weeks Splitcoast "ways to use it" challenge was to use frames I had an idea. I have seen this technique where you place buttons underneath a negative die cut space, and I love the way it looks. I was looking through my sihouette library and found this fabulous butterfly and thought I would give it a try.

It took a while to get the buttons just right but I think it was worth it. I had also wanted to put a sentiment somewhere but ended up liking it as it is.
Thanks for stopping by. Have a wonderful day!

    LOVE the framed butterfly with the buttons! FAB card! LOVE the strip of text. I agree, no room for a sentiment - put it on the inside!
