This week over at the Critter Sketch Challenge Blog we have a fun new challenge. It just happens to be another of my favourite embellishments... Buttons!!
I absolutely love buttons on a layout.. sometimes I tie a string through them - other times I leave them "naked". In this layout I used my new Martha Stewart button punch, which has quickly become my most used punch.
Supplies: Pattern Paper - Simple Stories - Handmade Holiday
Cardstock - Bazzill for base and buttons
Stickles
Twine - from my stash
Funny story about this paper - I told myself no new Christmas paper - as like many of you I am a paper hoarder, however, when I saw this line I just knew I had to have it. It was perfect for these pictures. This was a tradition that we started when the boys first arrived. We all put our "first" decoration on the tree and then it is a free for all with the rest of the ornaments. Some years we use the same ornament, other years we change it up. This year we had our "extra" kid for the night that we decorated our tree, so he got to participate too. The other thing that was different about this year - somehow I forgot to take a picture of the tree after we decorated it - so the picture of the tree was the picture Christmas Eve night - after the kids had gone to bed and "Santa" arrived. We can't put presents under our tree until the night before because our Molly-Dog would eat them.
