Buttons!!

Hi everyone! I'm back today to share a project for this week's Lily Pad Cards challenge, sponsored by Simon Says Stamp!  This time we are to use buttons.  I've always wanted to do one of these button-filled hearts, and here was my chance!   Here is my card.


supplies: red and white cardstock, various red and white buttons, pearls, red and white baker's twine, Hero Arts CL163 Always Hearts, Adirondack Cranberry ink, Spellbinders Nestabilities Scallop Heart dies

Please visit Lily Pad Cards to see what the other DTs did this week, and then link up your creation for a chance at a gift certificate from Simon Says Stamp!

Beautiful use of all of those buttons Lin! I really need to crank out my stash and use them, I think I neglect my buttons the most! Great inspiration!

Absolutely special, Lin! Love all the different sizes and patterns of all the buttons which formed into a heart-shaped!

SO cute Lin! I really need to try out this button filling technique - maybe I'll give it a whirl for that challenge! ;)

It looks like you stitched on the buttons onto the cards took. Was that hard to do?
