My card is doing double duty again this week!  My neighbor commissioned me to make a few cards for her & one is the baby card I made for today.  She requested a neutral palette so when I saw that purse; I knew exactly which colors I was going to play with!!!  I received the Button Button stampset free from SU! but couldn't think of anything creative to make with it.....until I was thinking about this card!  It may be hard to believe but I've gone almost an entire SU! year without Designer Series Paper from the big book!!!!  I know, I must be senseless but I did enjoy making my own paper with that button stamp!  Sometimes you have to go back to your *roots* to truly appreciate the finer things in life LOL!!!  I hope Adriana likes this lil' beauty  & the recipient even more!!!  For more inspiration; please check out the rest of the Design Team's work along with our special guest designer Kim Kesti--owner of this week's featured store:
