Buttons, Braid and Frame Freebie

We got my daughter's preschool pics back this week. They were really lovely. She was dressed in a soft pink gingham shirt with embroidered daisies and the background was a soft tan. So SKIP seemed the perfect place to look for stuff for the layout. I made the embroidered daisy braid to match her top, and the frayed fabric frame with embroidery from two new actions I got from Atomic Cupcake www.atomiccupcake.com. I am having a lot of fun with the new actions. I really loved the girliness of these. It sort of reminds me of when everyone's Mum wanted the sewing machine that could do that.
Rest assured there are no buttons or bling from anyone else. Thank you to Pam and Vicki for being so gracious and to some other very lovely people who left a nice message or email. To set the record straight for the couple of people who felt it necessary to flame me via email as a pirate. I did not steal anyone's work. I used buttons by Pam in a QP, and Gems by Vicki in the pewter stuff. I thought since they were freebies, and being used for more freebies and had given credit to the creators that was okay. I was wrong.
So back to the new stuff. I made the buttons out of the papers I had done. They are all two hole buttons because my epoxy action is causing PSE to shut down. No idea why. Will see if it happens after I have rebooted overnight. The fabric frame is a full frame, just chopped off for the preview. Hope you can use them. They can be downloaded here: http://www.4shared.com/file/45894115/811a7b9a/CWTG_-_Skip_-_Buttons__Braid.html

Best wishes,
