Remember when we used to post ‘Tuesday Tips’ ? Well, Design Notes is the new Tuesday Tips =) We’ve been playing with buttons lately and are convinced that this tiny accent is as versatile as ever! Today I wanted to share how color sets the mood, the tone, of your project. This card was made in tones of pink , not baby pink but a more grown up palette which makes it perfect for a female recipient. A sister perhaps or buddy or even Mom. Now if we switch it up a bit and use baby pink on an ivory card, that would be perfect for a baby. Now, what if we want to man it up a bit? Now that’s where the fun comes in. Send us your take of a card, using buttons but in masculine tones…

and you’ll have a chance to win one of these fun prizes!

smidapaper loves buttons! here the humble button sits happily as the centre of attention. lots of buttons coming to smidapaper soon. and lots of changes. good ones.
