Keeping It Simple - Best WIshes!

I made this card as a request for a lady I work with.  We have someone leaving us and she wanted a card large enough for many people to sign.  What a cute, colorful, bright and easy card to make!  I used Kraft Paper as a base and went from there.  Some pretty yellow-ish orange cardstock, layered with some pretty teal patterned paper.  The yellow and orange flower I had in my stash and added a button that matched the teal paper I used.  I used my Crop-A-Dile (love that little guy) and then tied some orange cross-stitching thread, and added some to the button.  And finished it off with a white gel pen.  The sentiment and little doodle is hand drawn/written.  Then added stitching around the edges and on the inside as well.  The inside is blank to accomodate lots of messages for the lady who is leaving us! 

I really like how this one turned out!  :o)  I am excited about it, for sure!

Thank you for looking!
