Something Old and Something New

And no, I am not getting married again. Just playing along with the challenge at Card Ideas this week. They have asked us to use something we have had on hand for a while and then to use something new, in my case I am using the Stampin' Up corduroy buttons and the heart rhinestones that I just bought. My old is the image "Love a Latte" that I bought a good while back and have never used even though I think it is one beautiful stamp set and to make it even better it has Valentine sentiments included.



My card stock and design paper are from Stampin' Up. I love how this turned out and love the flower I punched from some of the black card stock and some scraps of K&Co dp and then used my new button for the center. I should have saved this for Rick for Valentine's Day but couldn't help but show him my finished card....after all it's been a while since he's seen my work. lol I bet he would still like to get it, don't you? Stop by and play along at Card Ideas if you have time and you still have time to get in on the freebie at Faith's blog Delightful Inspiration which is a progressive challenge....if you play this week with the freebie, you will get a free digi sent to you and then every week after this month that you continue to play. I will try and post that card later.
Thanks for stopping by!
