Wilson Designs June Release Day 2!


Hey there! Day 2 of releases!  Today I have a sweet little baby face to nestle among Kim's scalloped frame stamp.


That sweet face is my "baby" (who is now EIGHT!).  I thought the sentiment in Kim's new set was perfect for a baby announcement!  Babies are surely "made with love".


The great crosstitch stamp design pairs perfectly with button embellishments.  Easy peasy!

Stay tuned in this week for inspiration every day from the DT Dolls and WD Stamps!
and don't forget me ;)
I hope you plan on hopping along and leaving comments for all of the designers each day to up your chances of winning this cute set that releases on friday. Good luck and thanks for coming by!

Wilson Designs Release Week..Day 1!


Woohoo!  It's release week at WD Stamps!


This card uses two of the image stamps...a flower stem and I used half of a scalloped frame to make a border at the top.  And don't buttons make the cutest flowers?

Making your own vintage sheet music envelope


Hi!  Today I'm sharing how to whip up a gorgeous and simple custom envelope for even your lumpiest card.  I used a bunch of my favorite ingredients: Want2Scrap bling, Buttons Galore and More buttons and sheet music!  Check out how I did it: Making a sheet music envelope


This one of my favorite elements....it's what happens when Spellbinders, Nestabling, and My Favorite Things stamps and dies get together for a birthday party!

Buttons Galore Teams Up with Sharpie for Weddings!


Hello all!  Buttons Galore and More has teamed up with Sharpie to bring you a ton of ideas for WEDDINGS!  *sigh*


Supplies:
Craft supply polished river rocks


My project would make a sweet table centerpiece.  A simple white tray holds buttons in the wedding color (in the case, pink) and nestled among the buttons are river rocks with words written on them to spell out lyrics to familiar love songs.  Simple, easy and oh so sweet!


You could also challenge your guests to sorting and building the lyrics themselves while they wait for newlyweds to finish taking photos, etc.  A centerpiece with rocks and buttons is so satisfyingly tactile and fun for all ages.  You could even ask your guests to write a one word wish for the newlyweds for them to take home as a keepsake.  The possibilities are endless. 
Great for a garden-themed wedding too!


Oil-based paint markers are perfect for writing on slick surfaces and durable too!  I hope you have enjoyed this project.  For more great wedding ideas with buttons and Sharpies, please visit the Buttons Galore and More blog for links to all of the designers participating.  Thanks for stopping by!
