Button Buddies and Buttons:)!

My family and I went to my husband's family's cabin this weekend.  My mother-in-law, Rosebud Card Designs, and I used the extra time in between activities to make cards and paper creations;).  I love going up north...LOL:). My husband wasn't too happy that I packed more stamping stuff than all the rest of the luggage and dog supplies combined!  Heehee - I can't help myself, what can I say!?!


The first project I wanted to complete this weekend was a card for an Inkspirations Challenges sketch challenge (http://www.inkspirations-challenges.blogspot.com/).  I'd like to say I created this using limited options, but let's face it, I took most of my supplies with me!  Stampin' UP has the most beautiful buttons and I absolutely love the dimension they added to this card.  The Button Buddies Stamp Set that co-ordinates with our buttons is adorable and so easy to use.

I have a workshop coming up so I decided to use our Stampin UP Cellophane Bags that will become available with the upcoming Holiday Mini Catalog.  They are a great size at 1" by 8".  I put Gobstoppers in them and used the stamp set Sunny Fun to decorate the tops.

 These were so easy to make and are great give-aways:).


Hope you enjoyed your weekend as much as I did!
