Cute by the inch!

Hi everyone!  I wanted to share a card with you that I made using Cute by the Inch, which is a Level 2 Hostess Set in the new catalog.  The card base is 4 1/4" x 4 1/4".  I love square cards, but they cost more to mail if mailed in a square envelope.  That's why I like to make them 4 1/4" x 4 1/4" so they still fit into a regular A2 sized envelope, but don't cost any extra to send.  I stamped the base with the Wood Grain Background Stamp and then stamped the top layer lightly with the En Francais Background Stamp.  After I stamped the images I wanted, I cut them out by hand with a pair of scissors and arranged them on the card front along with 3 buttons.  I also stamped a few of the images twice and then cut out some accents to pop up with Dimensionals for some added interest.
Thanks for looking!  :)
