The handmade leaf buttons on this card were so much fun to make, but a lot of work! First I made a background on the shrink film using different fall colors of alchol inks. I then stamped the image (from Stampin' Up!) onto the background and cut them out around the outline of the leaves. I also punched holes that could be used as buttonholes before I shrunk the plastic. After sewing them onto the strip of cardstock I also added a few handstitching details. Finally, I stamped "For someone special" on a strip of of the patterned paper used on the card and attached it using foam adhesive squares for added dimension. You can find this card (I made two) for sale in my etsy shop here: Fall Leaves Handmade Greeting Card -for someone special-
