Button Birthday Card
by Melody M. Nuñez

{Featuring the Everyday Expressions & Live to Love}

This birthday card can be made with new or vintage buttons, and the sentiment can be switched out, too, depending on the occasion.  I chose buttons in varying shades of blue, but you might choose another color or colors depending on the color palette you’d like to work with. 

Stamp “Happy Birthday” from the Everyday Expressions stamp set onto a rectangular panel of watercolor paper.  (I used black StazOn ink.)  Stamp the square with scalloped edges from the Live to Love stamp set above and below the words, spacing the squares out evenly.

Attach six buttons to the watercolor paper with Elmer’s Glue Spots, framing each button in one of the stamped squares.  Mat the stamped watercolor rectangle with a piece of blue cardstock, and affix the entire decorative panel to a blank card with more of Elmer’s Glue Spots or another adhesive.
