Some skeins for Sketch Saturday

I usually try to enter the challenge at Sketch Saturday and I found the shapes on the layout were best cut from 2 squares of DP, which left me with two sets.  I have a card for tomorrow that uses the first set, but I made a second card which I am blogging tonight.  The DP is Basic Grey Wisteria, I have just a few sheets of this beautiful DP left to play with.  The image is one of Phindy's new Two Seven Oh  series, called Skeins, I coloured with Copics and used Distress Ink for the background.  The sentiment comes from Paulette at Create with TLC, I've added yarn and some buttons.  I began with adding buttons the corresponded to the sketch but they looked very lonely so I kept adding them till it felt right:).  I'm happy with the look but know I need to give this card to someone rather than post it, it is quite heavy now!
My card is for the following challenges:
Sketch Saturday - sketch
Digi Doodles - anything goes
Papercrafting Journey - use a digi
Simon Says - anything goes
Whimsey Stamps - button it
Digital Tuesday - buttons & twine
Going Grey with Scrap Creations - going digi
Nettie G's digital gems - anything but a rectangle
