Minty Fresh

When I saw the Minty Fresh post on the Moxie Fab World blog:

I knew immediately what had to be done. I pulled out my PTI Polka Dot Basic set and stamped it several times onto a piece of SU Sage Shadow card stock. This is what came out:

The sentiment is from the Hero Arts Heyday Sentiments set, and the button is from an old stash of Tessa Ann buttons (tessaann.etsy.com)

Then, since I've been doing literal interpretations of inspiration challenges these days, and because Sage Shadow is not really "mint" green, I went back into The Heaplet and found a remnant from these cards, and I made this:

FYI: I made that black button myself. :) I followed the tutorial at the Hero Club blog; it's crazy-easy, even easier than the buttons I've made before. I never bothered with the Glossy Accents to make them shiny since I'm too impatient to wait for it to dry, but these are flat so you can clear-emboss them. And I love the way she held the button with the tweezers while heating the EP. So smart!

In other news, yes, I know it's 5:30 am. I've been awake for two hours, so I decided it was time to be productive. This day will not end well.

Thanks for stopping by!
