Did you guess?? Did you look!! Aw well, it's Sunday...I'll forgive you!!
BUTTONS!!!
(it was that easy!!)
We'd like to see on any crafty product you care to make, a button....or even lots of buttons!! I got my idea from a lovely picture frame. It was a lot easier than it looks to make, but I did make a mess (see my 'What's on your Workdesk Wednesday' from a few weeks back!)
The challenge this time was set by our lovely DT member
Juliaand for the month of March Quirky Craft's are being sponsored by
Crafty Ribbons!
There will be 3 bags of ribbons for the winner of the button challenge, enough ribbon to last you a very long time!!
Pop over to the Quirky Craft Challenge Blog to see what the DT has come up with and to find out who won the last 'Cute' Challenge, then put your thinking caps on!!
The buttons were from my button tin, which included some of my mums buttons, my two daughters' buttons, from when they where babies, one I had on a cardi as a child, and even a few of Auntie Brenda's buttons....(which probably include her mother's and even her grandmother's too!)
You have two weeks to come up with anything crafty as long as there's a button. Simples!!
I'm thinking now...Atc's, Fat pages, scrap book pages...or even knitted Teddies with button eyes!! Can't wait to see what you all come up with!! I'll show you the inside oft my card in the week...just to jog your memories!! (Can you guess what kind of card it will be??)
Happy Crafting!!
