i'm a week late, but finally catching up on a crazy challenge among a slightly crazy but great group of friends. for last monday, which was the 18th, a card with 18 buttons. yes, 18.
i was fortunate enough to already own this set of buttons which includes some little tiny ones. i chose matching ink colors. for you CCEEers who i know are madly counting buttons, i'm one short. one tiny one came off and got lost in the slightly shaggy rug in my stamp room. and i couldn't find it for the life of me. but it WAS there!!
thanks for looking!

Bzzzztttttt.......Nanner, Nanner...the one on the yellow flower to the right fell off. Your excuse right? Or were you just being a stinker like the rest of the CCEE lot! I think you were thinking we would not count! Not!!!
Okay, putting the fact that you only have seventeen buttons on here aside for a minute (one a minute!) your card is absolutely adorable and so appropriate for a baby card! I love the baby bottle, the soft pastel colors and the button color and shapes rock! Worth the wait Deb!

I must admit .... I counted too hehe .... twice so glad my counting wasn't wrong .... I can see where the button is supposed to be ... how annoying for you that it came off ..... this is totally adorable.

You did a fantastic job on your button card. Very creative and I think it is just fine that one fell off...a few of us used an extra for just an occasion!
