Happy Monday Challenge...

Good Morning!  Deedee Digis has gone through some reconfiguration and now I am exclusively part of the Deedee's Digis Happy Monday Challenge and I am soooo excited.  There are new and seasoned DT members on this team and I am so thrilled with the direction that Deedee has taken.  There's a new store, the Craft blog and the very own challenge blog.  This is so much fun!!  So are you ready for this week's Happy Monday Challenge?  It's a really easy and super fun one - All Buttoned Up.  This means you need to have buttons, real or faux, featured on your cards or projects.  I have both to share with you.

First... since its Valentines Day, this is what I made for Hollyanne to give to two of her friends.

This was so much fun and so easy to make - this is an envelope gift bag.  Inside is a lip gloss and 3 chocolate bars, just a pre-teen girl loves!

This is a close-up of the front of the giftie - I am featuring Valentine Tweet, a sweet little $1 digi set.

Supplies:
Card stock:  Neenah Classic Crest, Neenah Classic envelope
Paper:  Love paper (Me & My Big Ideas), Dots paper (Chatterbox)
Copics:  E04, E29, E30, E34, E57, R00, R11, Y17
Tools:  Scor-Pal, Scor-Tape, Square Scallops Nesties (Spellbinders)
Embellishments:  white satin ribbon (Offray), button (my stash), brads (Bazzill)

And now for my card - this features a brand new $1 digi called Pocketful of Joy.  Now this is a cat I could actually like!

This card features soft sweet colors in shade of green, blue and lavender.  The brads didn't photograph well, they are actually really bold purple.  The layout came from a great sketch over at Sketch Saturday.
