365 Cards - Day 128 - Card Recipe and Cupcake Craft Challenge

The challenge on day 128 over at 365 Cards is a recipe challenge

Here is the recipe:

1 5x5 Card
1 Rub-on image
2 Buttons
1 Piece of patterned paper
1 piece of ribbon - NO BOW
1 Sentiment inside the card

Challenge #47 over at Cupcake Crafts is Black and White, they announced today that Donna is taking over the running of Cupcake so it wont be finishing after all, Thanks Donna!

Here is my card



I found a piece of Sandylion paper and carefully cut round the design adding a length of shaped ribbon to the edge of the card. I added the rub on which is one of my favourites from Basic grey to balance the design on the paper. I then stuck 2 small white buttons in the top corner where there was a gap in the run on.

The inside is just a simple Thank You printed on my pc.




Card base is Black SU
Paper is Sandylion
Rub on is Basic Grey
Ribbon and buttons from my stash

Hope you like it.
