Button Cards

I still have loads of buttons left over from last years Christmas Shirts project, so I decided to start putting them to use!

DIY Christmas Cards, Button Cards, Button Art

These are both easy peasy cards to make and come together quickly.


Whenever you add just a bit of texture, layering, and of course BLING, it makes a nice impression.


You can see the silver ink better in this shot.

Now, you know I didn't come up with these designs all by myself...here are the inspiration cards.

I have loads more cards to come but you can check out my Christmas and Make to Made boards on Pinterest if you want a sneak preview~

    I have so many ideas for buttons but alas they are soooo expensive here ... I need someone to just give me their button box! Lol. I think im going to start buying cheap garage sale clothes just for the buttons!
