365 Cards Day 232

As always, 365 Cards has a fantastic sponsor for the week! This week we received paper and ribbon from the lovely Catherine Pooler, who is a Stampin' Up demonstrator. Make sure you drop by Catherine's blog to see her beautiful cards. She is also our Guest DT at 365 Cards this week, and has a fabbie sample posted for Sketchy Sunday!

Now, on to the Monday Challenge - Bounty of Buttons. Pam wants to see at least 15 buttons on our cards! She thought she had me this week! But I did the challenge, and then some! I think I have 22 buttons on this card! Guess I win again, Pam!

All of the paper and the ribbon on my card is from Stampin' Up. I want to thank Catherine for giving us such lovely goodies! The cat stamp and the tab punch are from my SU stash. The jar stamp is from Limited Edition. I colored it with Copics, then glued the buttons inside. They are supposed to represent candy. The greeting inside says: it's all about the treat. Get it?!

I had planned on using the "there is one in very bunch" sentiment since I added one purple button, but I cannot find that stamp. I think it may be a "digi stamp" that I made. I was wasting time looking for it, so I just changed ideas.

Here is a close-up of the small stamp and tab punch combo. This set of stamps matches the SU punches. Very fun! And check out the printed paper! Isn't it fab?!

Tune in tomorrow as I'll have a NEW sketch for you! I'm back on the team as the card sketch artist at Christian Paper Crafts. I've been creating sketches all weekend!
