I kept the colour scheme simple, using the same card and ink on each decoration, so that the stamps took centre stage... and I used some of my big stash of white/cream buttons.
Each deco is 5 impressions of one stamp, cut and centre folded, with some tape to hold them together.
With the first I stacked buttons at the top and bottom of the deco and used little matching stamps in the fold of each section. The pearls at the bottom of the strings on this one are pearls beads.
The second has the string threaded through the top and bottom whole in each of the nestie shapes. Buttons are threaded and sit up across the fold with glue dots... the button feature continues at the bottom of the strings on this one.
The third has buttons suspended in the centre of little nestie frames... the pearls at the bottom of these strings are half pearls squeezed together.

Have fun with this sketch peeps!
