And now for a bit more about the project I created for this special day!
I kept my card fairly simple. The card base is made from Classic Kraft cardstock, sponged just a bit with our Vintage Tea Dye Duo. The decorative strip on the left is created from Scarlet Jewel cardstock and Damask Designs stamp set, using Versamark ink. It's trimmed a bit on one side using scalloped scissors. I used the popular holly & berry image from Holiday Button Bits as my focal point. I stamped it on a circle (Nestabilities) with Ripe Avocado ink, then stamped it a second time on a separate piece of Stamper's Select White cardstock. I cut the leaves out of the second stamped image and adhered them over the leaves on the circle, creating a really intriguing overlay.
Scarlet Jewel Vintage Buttons were the perfect finishing touch, along with some loops of Ripe Avocado Stitched Ribbon. I can never seem to get enough of the font combination that is used in all of our Button Bits sets. It is classy with just a touch of whimsy, which makes it a perfect compliment to any style!
Thank you for stopping by today and I hope you enjoy all the amazing inspiration that the Papertrey Team has put together for you today through the Moxie Fab Blog!
Happy Blogiversary, Cath!

Gabriela says
I am just crazy over your Holiday (and Everyday) Buttons and Bits and this card is so elegant and captivating.
Jessica says
Stunning!!! I never use buttons on my projects simply because they seem to just float in a useless way (at least when I create them) unless I use them to embellish flowers. But this set is such a clever way to incorporate them. Thanks for your inspiration. And yes it’s a celebration indeed over at Moxie Fab with you girls dropping by 😉
Cheers
