Good morning all!
Well I am off to my friend Nikki's wedding today, and I need to nip into town as I forgot to get some earrings to match the rest of my jewellery doh! Then off to the hairdressers, then quickly back and dressed...plus got a 3 year old to get dressed in a suit he doesn't want to wear lol!
Anyway, just time to fit this little card in this morning for the new challenge over at Less Is More which, this week, is Button/s or Ribbon!
So I used both!

I've had this green ribbon lying around for a while now, really wanting to use it and so I made it into my flower, and added a random green button from a load Jen gave me! I doodled the stem and the sentiment in fineliner. It's just a quicky for now, as I won't be able to enter again til Tuesday now as I have a lot on til then! 
By for now LIMettes and have a wonderful weekend!
