Button's Birthday...

She just might get upset if she knew I was posting this....but here is the card I literally Whipped up for Allison's birthday. I got distracted and ....oh, excuses, excuses!!!

Anyway, it started out as a case of my own card from Beate's Weekend Sketch Challenge, but then it evolved into it's own form....just like Allison! All of the buttons are her....she's been her Daddy's button ever since she was born!!!

I was surprised and please when I threw the Lovely Lilac, Almost Amethyst and Groovy Guava together.....Who'd have Thunk????

Happy Stampin' - Joan
