Old white buttons, little black beads, bits of twig and black paper made for a fun set of artist trading cards. I don't love sewing all that much so I cheated a bit and glued the buttons to the felt backgrounds. But I liked the look of the stitched edges so made sure I sewed them with embroidery floss so the stitches would show up.

Hmmmm. Some of my tailor-made silk shirts seem to be missing a button or two...
