Yay! It's my turn! This week I am challenging you to use some stash and we are going to go with a button theme. We've all got them! Can't wait to see what you all come up with! Have fun!

Ok...I opened my button box (a tackle box) and stared at the buttons...hmmm.....what to do? what to do? Then I noticed that I had three buttons that looked like flowers! and I could find some small buttons to fit in the middles....then..EUREKA! do you see what colors those buttons are? Pure and Simple colors!! This was not planned out, but a wonderful accident...love the colors! A little doodling with white gel pen finished it off.

Cool cards Ruth ANn and Cheryl. Some of these ideas lend themselves to a simple LO while others can be more intense. I like that. We get a range of choices, and lots of options to play with.

Here's mine this week. The button already had the dotted lines and I extended them. Thought I might do more, but whenever I put something else with it--it was just wrong-- so I left it alone. I guess sometimes simplicity is enough.
