Let's get shabby with buttons

I think I was channelling my inner "Mary Poppins" with this card.
I've gone all candy striped pink.
My card has striped patterned paper and silver striped ribbon with a vintage feel. I've also used a circle of paper doiley cut from a previous challenge (look below)
Then I've stitched 4 white buttons with pink thread and finally used a commercially printed tag saying "I love you so much". This could be an early valentines day card or just for someone very girly.
I hope the "Let's get shabby" people like it.

And while I'm on pink and white, don't forget the Lollipop Ladies challenge of jubes which closes soon.
