BUTTONS!!!!!!!!!

I can't wait any longer!!!!! So I showed you a hint yesterday of what I was doing, well, today I can show you what it was! I was making my very own buttons! I know some of you are pros, so be easy on me :) This was my first rodeo! I love the way some came out, but not so much others. It was a learning process for sure! Here are some of the ones I made:



Here is a card I made today using one of them! I am tired of paying out the yahoo for something really unique, so I am making my own from now on AND I will be offering them on my Etsy site for a VERY affordable price!

And a special for cardmakers- I have made some very nice and thin buttons for us! I hate weighing down a card with a thick button that calls for more postage, so I have made some thin ones to make it easy to attach to a card and no extra postage is required b/c of the weight! YEAH!!!! Hope you guys like them!!! Let me know and someone will win a set I am calling "80's Throwback" :)
