Our BBTB2 challenge this week was chosen by Julia. She asked the DT to use the wreath from Joys of the Season. It was a pretty simple cut and I just couldn't decide what to do until I was sorting through a bunch of my buttons and decided to use them to embellish. I seem to have an overabundance of light green buttons. About a week ago I decided to take my new Cricut Christmas Cards cartridge and cut out all the base shape cards so I would have a stack of ready made cards to use for Christmas. This is the first one I've used, plenty more in the stack. I also used the cartridge to cut the word Joy.

I love your take on the challenge, Jeri. I am always gleeful when I see the different ideas screaming across our DT. I also have a plethora of buttons and when I see a card that features them, I slap my forehead and say DUH because I forget to use the pretty little things. Thanks for the inspiration.

Jeri your wreath card is nothing short of fabulous! I adore the buttons around the wreath; what a wonderful idea! Beyond the cards, the shape, the ribbon and the colors are great. You did such an amazing job on this challenge!! I really love this!

What a great card Jeri!!! Love how you used the buttons (I have a ton of them thanks to my sweet daughter who collects vintage and shares with me). Your card would also look so pretty as the cover of a mini album!!! TFS
