button, button

Here is my card for this LAD Sketch Challenge. I deviated from the sketch a bit...I wanted more room in the bottom rectangle for my flowers. And I've been button-crazy this week so I wanted not one button but two.

Supplies:
Fun to be Floral and Simpy Sentiments
SU Soft Sky cardstock and ribbon
SU Real Red and Black ink
Cream cardstock
Red and blue buttons

I like the simplicity of this card and I'm proud of myself for keeping it simple. I love the Clean and Simple (CAS) look but I'm not sure that I'd call myself a CAS card designer. It's challenging to be simple sometimes. (ha!) This often is what goes through my head when I'm cardmaking...

Tricia: This card needs something.

Voice of Reason: No it doesn't, it looks great the way it is.

Tricia: No it's missing something. Like another flower or a button.

Voice of Reason: Why do you think it needs something? It looks FINE.

Tricia: I just want to try putting one more button on there.

Voice of Reason: Don't do it. You'll regret it.

Tricia: I won't regret it, I can always take the button off if I don't like it.

Voice of Reason: PUT. THE BUTTON. DOWN.

Tricia: Okay I put the button on. You know what, I'm not sure this card needed it. But now I can't take it off or the glue dot will rip off some of my paper.

Voice of Reason: I'm going to bed now. We'll try again in the morning.

Ever had that conversation before? :)

By the way, still no baby! Yikes!
