Beautiful Buttons

I had the chance to have a little play this morning. It was pouring with rain outside and the girls were tucked up in the lounge with Toy Story 3 and the hubster was at work - perfect crafting conditions !!! 

I saw the challenge of kraft and twine over at CAS on Sunday and I just knew it was time to break open the Papertrey Ink stamps I have been wanting for eternity, bought and never actually used **blush**.

The papers I used are Tilda "Country Escape".  I used these for a magazine commission and had some scraps left over.  They are gorgeous.

The buttons and corrugated kraft card are from my stash.

I am also entering the following challenges :
