This card combines lots of texture and patterns with a focus on the sentiment. I used a SRM sticker which always delights because they lay so incredibly smooth and I never have issues with bubbles or finger prints. I used a mustard yellow trim with orange twine wrapped around it for a little extra something-something. I don't know why I am using that word but there it is. I stapled a strip of corrugated cardboard on the larger navy blue strip and then added the orange buttons because embellishing is good and I have so many dang buttons.
I hope you have a wonderful New Year's eve and wishing you the best in 2012!
