Cute as a button.
Here is my DT contribution using Sunbonnet Measuring
She was coloured with Promarkers to match the Papermania papers which I arranged to suggest patchwork. Some buttons strung together with twine as a finishing touch. She's one for the stock box. My friend Kim (she is responsible for wonderful fabric creations) and I are going to share a stall at a neighbouring villages' Craft and Flower Show in a couple of weeks so I am beavering away putting cards in cello bags and getting organised. I am actually really nervous about it as I am useless at pricing and it will be our first time selling to the public, as such!! Thankfully Kim and I are both known locally so perhaps the good folk of Dorset will take pity on us!!

Good morning Sarah, love your really pretty card.
Great choice of papers, image and of course the cute little buttons
Love it all.
You will do great at the Fair, sharing with a friend makes it easier.
Hazel and I always did ours together, having someone to "bounce" things off is great.
Have a great day

AWE! These sun bonnet image are so SWEET and fun to color!! I love the soft muted hues that you've used here and the row of buttons are such a perfect accent too!! :) HUGS
I'm sure your cards will be a big hit at the Show! Love this sewing motif on the pretty Sunbonnet Sue (used to be a fabric/quilter/sewer person in another hobby life!). Especially love the way you've used the buttons on a string border. Very clever and sure to attract the attention of any sewer. Fab coloring of the focal image, just as you always do. (was so tickled to read you have your very own Martin too!) TFS & Hugs. Good luck with preparations and more so with the sale.
Fab sewing theme and gorgeous papers, Sarah! Love the patchwork background! I’m sure the show will be a great success for you and your friend! xxx
