"Old Meets New" in The Shabby Tea Room

Welcome to the last few days of August - where did the summer go?  Before we know it, Thanksgiving will be here, then Halloween, and then ... CHRISTMAS!  ACK!  Are you one of those people that have started shopping already?  I haven't even THOUGHT about it yet... (and I'm not gonna either)  :)

This week's challenge in The Shabby Tea Room is "Old Meets New" ~ use something old and something new.  Easy, right?  Our sponsor this week is none other than our fearless leader, Debbie, with her Shabby Vintage Seam Binding and one lucky participant will win 12 yards of this lovely embellishment. 

Okie dokie - so for my "old" I used some Basic Grey paper that hasn't seen enough lovin' and my "new" is the wonderful buttons die I got from the Cat's Pajamas a few weeks ago.  I also used my NEW cork sheets for the buttons... yummy.

I used this week's sketch from the Our Creative Corner Sketch Challenge:

Recipe - Stamps: Flower Girl (Pure Innocence, MFT), Vintage Labels (SU!)  Paper: Various textured cardstock, Daffodil Delight, Basic Grey Origins paper, Whisper White  Accessories: Paper piercer, Copics, cork sheets, Buttons die, buttons, hemp twine, vintage seam binding
