For today's Ways to Use It Challenge, WT93 - Button Up. We were to use buttons in our design today, and knowing that I had all these great old buttons, I couldn't wait to stamp today -- hah, it has been an all day attempt in a major mess. First, couldn't decide what stamp set, picked out some buttons, nothing went with them, decided just to stamp and then get the button. Okay, no problem! Got the whole card assembled, found these great old buttons (thread still attached) that matched, put them on the card with glue, didn't like them, took them off, changed my mind put them back on, changed my mind again, took them off. Now the last time I took them off, it tore the paper, so now I had huge white marks on the layer, sponged it brown, too dark, put the darn buttons back on and called it quits! Thus, What a Mess!!!!

I should have such messes! The color of those buttons is perfect! Your card is just beautiful -- everything goes together so well. Your sponging may have been an afterthought, but you'd never know it! Great job.
