Here's the sketch:
And here's what I did with it:
Funny story about this card. I'm not the most patient of people and after I covered my leaf with Crystal Effects, I made myself walk away for a couple of hours. When I came back I stuck my finger in the leaf to see if it was dry yet. Well, you guessed it - a lovely fingerprint worthy of CSI analysis! Hence the button, which I hope doesn't look too out of place.
There's lots of distressing and sponging going on with this card. I used a favorite set French Foliage and the soon-to-be-retired SAB set Feeling Sentimental for the sentiment.

That's funny Karren - I didn't think anything odd at all about the button - I think it looks like it was meant to be there! Loved this card when I saw it in the gallery, especially those earthy, neutrally tones :)
I think the button is perfect! Even if it is covering up evidence - lol! Beautiful card! Love the sponging and distressing!
I always tell my girls that there is always some way to fix a boo-boo and I love the way you fixed yours. The button looks great with the other layers. Love the torn look!
Clever idea for a cover-up! I love the overall natural look of this card! Perfect for any occasion!
Such a pretty card...I just love shabby chic and fall colors. There's a mistake you needed to cover up? Where? LOL!
