cQc138: Cherish


This is the card I made for the colourQ Challenge. The colors this week were Poppy Parade, More Mustard, Pool Party, Crumb Cake and Whisper White. I didn't have a lot of time this week so I had to make a quick card. For the button, I covered a regular Stampin' Up! button with DSP. I like being able to make a perfectly coordinated button. I saw the idea in the Stampin' Success magazine. Such a simple idea but I never would have thought of doing something like that.
