Button, button, who has the button? Certainly not me!! Buttons are something I have a very short supply of, so I used faux buttons! I made this w/ my SU button Sizzlit die. I really was at a loss for an idea & this just evolved. I made 'flowers' w/ my faux buttons & used DMC floss for the French knot centers. I broke my button ef that I wanted to use for the border, so used the little flowers & scored lines on each inner side. The buttons are on a SU 3x3 note card. This will go to my SIL thanking her for a very relaxing vacation last week.
The red c/s is from Hollo's, paired w/ Garden Green.
Thanks Pam for a really neat challenge.
Thanks for stopping by to take a peek.

Awwww. You have no buttons. Doesn't everyone need a button collection? They are good for so many things. I could list a few, but I won't. I will just say that you rose to the occasion and made a fabulous card. I LOVE your green and the faux buttons are awesome.
