Shirt buttons come in lots of different sizes and styles and have a great pearlescent sheen to them. I love to see them en masse in fabric projects, on cards or simply stored in glass bottles and jars. I raided my stash to create a shiny bauble for today's card... the buttons look pretty good teamed up with the silver mirror cardstock.

Such an elegant card. Love it.
ReplyDeleteAnother great idea that I have to put on my todo list to try. Thanks for the inspiration.
ReplyDeleteGreat how you've made this ''chique' and elegant silverwhite bauble! I once made a christmastree with blue buttons, that looked more cute...

This is stunning and so elegant. Shona xx
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea. As the buttons are a bit pearlescent, the bauble gives an elegant effect!

buttons are such a great idea for card making - I used them a lot all year round.
ReplyDeleteThis is a great idea Beccy, but I don't have enough buttons. I will have to use some digital ones. Thank you for your inspiration each day.
ReplyDeleteNossa!!! Lindo demais, cor fantástica... Adoro seu desafio de novembro.
ReplyDeleteI like seeing buttons on cards. I so wish I had my Mom's button box--it was a hat box, I believe. None of us can find it!
ReplyDeleteAnother effective card and technique Beccy.
ReplyDeleteWow, this is just stunning Beccy. Love it. Beautiful and elegant Christmas card. Anet x
ReplyDeleteThis is so elegant and beautiful! Wow, I can't stop looking at it! Stunning card, Beccy!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun card! I love the idea of the buttons. Great 'outside the box' thinking!
ReplyDeleteBless my buttons, I love your shiny buttons with the white dots. Very pretty. Those must be some pretty tiny buttons.
ReplyDeleteButtons, buttons buttons, everywhere, a lovely creation you have put to air...
ReplyDeleteThe Christmas spirit shines right through,
From a lovely card
Made by You...xx
Will go and look at my buttons, but I think my white ones are very plain not pearly. Thanks Beccy for sharing this lovely idea. Hugs, Ursula
ReplyDeleteA fabulous card - I have loads of old shirt buttons (I always cut buttons off old clothes before they go into the rag bag) so I must CASE your card!

Wow, stunning, must try this!
ReplyDeleteLovely idea. I like the way the light plays on the buttons, just like light plays on baubles
ReplyDeleteBeautiful and what a clever idea. Very rich and elegant card.
ReplyDeleteIt makes me wanting to go through my button stash
Have an enjoyable day
