I have literally just got hold of my Stampin Up Mitten punch and straight away wanted to use the mitten topper as custard for a Christmas Pudding..... even better when I found a round button die was the perfect size to use as a pudding :0)
These are just the kind of novelty buttons I love..... not particularily useable but cute :0)
I finished off with a bit of sewing on the button card and card base and then that beautiful ribbon style sentiment from Stampin Up...... which is new as well, couldn't resist them *wink*I would have loved these buttons on a cardigan in my younger days but now I think they look much better on a card........ no tasteless Christmas knitwear in this house!!! :0)
Thanks for looking

Your custard is fab on those puddings. Love that you continued the button theme with some stitching. Christmas jumpers are all the rage this christmas! x
