small treasures & small blog candy!

Sometimes its those little treasures that make me smile ... i received an order from etsy in the mail today. I was soooo excited ... i ordered some buttons from Tessa Ann on etsy ... cute little hand made fimo type buttons. Look how wonderfully they were packaged ...


I almost didnt want to open the wrapping ... it was just so cool, like a little prezzie, just for me. The buttons are so cute and sooo colourful and exactly as they were pictured and they just made me smile from ear to ear. It's these small little splurges that can really make the sun shine inside and out! H came home from work, and like the little magpie she is, spotted the shiny buttons and ran off with quite a few. what she intends on doing with them, i do not know, but they also made her smile!


So here is your turn to smile ... leave me a comment telling me how you like to use buttons when paper crafting by Friday May 1st and I will do a random draw on saturday May 2nd and send the lucky random winner 5 buttons from the easter set. Dontcha just love that little easter egg on the button! too cute!!!

I love to use buttins to add that extra detail...to make the project pop on a SB page or card.

Enjoy your buttons Jo!

Too funny Sue! Those are the cutest little buttons! I love using buttons on everything. They always add that little extra accent touch on my scrapbook pages and cards. Sometimes I will often use them as the centre for flowers. The also look great in little clusters or as a border. Can't wait to see these on some of your layouts Jo!

Those are adorable...I use buttons everywhere and anywhere. They are especially great for covering up those unwanted mistakes.

OMG! I love those buttons! Oh no another Etsy site to get addicted too! you're such an enabler! LOL
I love to put my buttons in the centre of flowers or use them to create a corner on a layout, I usually use embroidery floss or scrappers floss to thread them up.

Love them!! Will have to pick some of these lovelies up! Love buttons to repeat a circular theme, accent, flower centres or just because.
