Ahhh! The two weeks of extra shifts at work are over so hopefully I'll have lots of time to catch up with everyone and actually make some cards now. Yee haw! For this little card I used the colours from ColourQ and stamps from Market Street Stamps. I used VersaMark ink on the MSS gingham background stamp to get a subtle pattern on the red cardstock. I also used a button and some twine!!! I know... I'm getting a little crazy here. I thought of that wooden button when I started the card and was really impressed when I actually found it! LOL! Must dash now as hubby and I are going to dinner and then to an info session about a potential Portuguese class for me. Boa noite e ate amanha!Supplies Used

I love this scene - and the subtle detail of the gingham on the background - I love details like that - they add to the card as a whole without making it busy! Great rich colours!
What a cute card Jen, Market Street stamps are on my shopping list for sure.
I just love the design of this card Jen and the gorgeous tree :)
Great message for a card for anyone. A button AND twine? Wow! And... I think you're working too hard. ;)
I love this! Love your tree and fabulous sentiment.
Beautiful, clean card, Jen, love that it is summery! Thanks for sharing your card with us this week at the ColourQ.
Super sweet design Jen! I particularly love the button and twine, they are things I constantly add to cards and then pull away again, others make it looks sooooo easy... Yours is perfect!
The wood button is thee perfect touch!
Hope you had a wonderful dinner out. This little scene is oh so sweet!
Portuguese? Awesome :) I've taken both French & German, but it seems that my brain is determined to remain stubbornly Anglo...whah.
Love the gingham background, and WHAT IS THAT BUTTON DOING THERE? I'm so confused ;) lol It looks awesome. Love the dimension on the tree too!
i adore that tire on the tree. so cute.

Just a super cute image and yay for finding the button, I'm hopeless at using embellishments on cards :0)

Such a cute little scene! Thanks for sharing your card with us this week at the ColourQ.
Life is beautiful. Your card is beautiful. Love everything about it, down to the subtle background (great idea!) and the twist of yarn to vertical on the horizontal line of twine (great idea!)!
This is so cute ~ love the tire hanging from the tree. Hmmm ... another stamp set to add to my wish list. ~ Super sweet card!
do you HAVE to multi-task so much and show the rest of us up?!?!? such a gorgeous card, love the button, it was totally worth finding .... look at you making more patterned paper, how is that patterned paper pile going!>!
Really, really cute....adorable little image and the button takes the cake! So glad you were able to play with the CQC this week!
Your card turned out so cute with the paper pieced tree! And who can resist an oversized wooden button? Adorable!
Portuguese lessons sound fun!
I love that tire swing and the twine with the button!
Great colors together on your sweet little card! Love the gingham background, button and twine placement too.
