If you think spring, it will come.
3/20/2008 10:53:32 AM (Eastern Daylight Time, UTC-04:00)
I created this card last night, hoping today would feel more like spring (since it is the first official day of spring) and less like the dead of winter. It had been raining for days, and it even snowed last night in Cincinnati! I made it my goal to think spring thoughts. I believe it worked! The sun is shining and it’s a gorgeous day in southern Ohio. I’m so looking forward to spring being right around the corner.
My other main goal last night, besides bringing springtime weather, was to use some of the old vintage buttons I inherited from both of my grandmothers. I recently sorted all of the buttons by color and had wanted to use them for a project. This button flower was a great place to start. I added dimension to the buttons by using glue dots and foam adhesive.
Do you have any ideas about other projects I can create with these awesome buttons? What are some ways you like to use buttons on your pages and paper projects? Leave a comment to share your great button ideas with me, and have a wonderful first day of spring!
Create something. Inspire everyone.

Super cute card GinaMarie!
Love the grandma button stash!
One of my fave ways to use buttons is a group by the title and a group by the "end" of the page...kinda act as a start and end point and gives balance. :)
