Cute as a Button

This is a two page 8"x8" layout. The background paper is from the Sweet Stack by DCWV. I wrapped one of the pages with a pink ribbon, then tied a bow and adhered it to the ribbon. I topped off the bow with a button from my stash. The title, "cute as a button" is from Kate's ABCs and cut at 2." I used another button from my stash for the center of the flower. I cut mats for two photos. The one on the left hand page is for a 3 1/2"x5" photo and the one on the right is for a 4"x6" photo. I cut both layers 1/8" larger than the previous layer and then wrapped them with some ribbon. The lamb and the bear are from the Sugar and Spice Lite cartridge. I cut the lamb at 2" and flocked it with some pink flocking and used some black pearls for eyes. The bear is cut at 3." I used a Peachy Keen stamp for her face and used some tropical tangerine Stickles on her bow. The pink outfit and safety pins are both from New Arrival. The outfit is cut at 3 1/2." I used a button for the center of the flower on it as well. The safety pins are cut at 2." I added some tropical tangerine Stickles to the heart on one of the safety pins and used glossy accents on the two pink ones. I used pop-dots to adhere all the images to the layout, except the saftey pins.
