PDCC80 & May H2H Week 1

Well, it's my now-weekly rush to get my Playdate Cafe entry in in time!! :) I had this card done yesterday afternoon...so why am I rushing to get it posted just now, with 20 minutes to spare? A good question. The answer is probably quite viable, but I won't bore you with the details. I'll just post the lovely inspiration photo and my card and let you be on your way! :)

Just in case I run out of time, I'll post my supply list after I get the post up, to make sure it gets there before my time is up! (Supply list added!)

This weeks H2H challenge was to use buttons, so I made sure this card had lots of CTMH goodies & buttons on it so that I could post it for that challenge as well. For those who may not be familiar with Close To My Heart stamp sets, the background on the card is stamped with those buttons. It's from a set called Buttoned Together.
