Cute Card Thursday - Metallica



I had started this card yesterday for Kimmie's Birthday Challenge, but when I re-read the details I discovered that I had not used a button so laid it aside and started again!

I am snowed in today as the trains are not running between Aberdeen and Inverness so I have had time to do a bit of blog hopping and am now able to use this card as I have now added some metal spacers to the flowers and also a couple of flower charms so that it meets the criteria for this weeks Cute Card Thursday challenge.
DP is Basic Grey Sultry and the stamps is one of the new Sharing Sherbet ones from Pollycraft - I just love these new ones. Flowers are prima and all other bits and pieces are from my stash. I have used this week's sketch from Friday Sketchers.

I am now off to phone my DH and see whether he fancies taking me out to lunch - fingers crossed.

Hope the weather is not too bad wherever you are.
