Buttons!

Boy, do I have quite a supply of buttons! I have a bucketful from dear Grandma and can't pass up vintage buttons at a good price, or new buttons from any of the great scrapbooking manufacturers like American Crafts, Basic Grey, and Bazzill.

Sooooo, why not start a button challenge?! Check out the September challenge HERE. Join in if you can! Random RAK pulled at the end of the month!

Here's my first layout for the challenge:



No - I did not distress or chalk my layout - that's my dang scanner. The basic design was based on this ad I had saved on my hard drive - probably from the 2peas ad challenge:



and the buttons were all random buttons pulled from my little blue button jar:




i have a bunch of these glass jars for my buttons - each for only a buck at Pier One.

thanks for stopping by and have a creative week!
