Buttons, buttons & more buttons ...

It's challenge time again. I wasn't going to enter this one - I battle with buttons. Then I  blog-hopped and inspiration hit. I've killed two birds with one stone - an entry, and one Christmas card completed! What challenge, I hear you ask? This one - Scrapbook Boutique Buttons, buttons & more buttons!

I've dipped each button into Versamark ink then into silver embossing powder and heat-embossed (yes it did take a while!). The music stamp is from a Kaisercraft Xmas set, and the tree music is Washi tape. White cardstock is Bazzill Orange Peel and I've also used silver foil board.

    Lovely card! What a great idea to emboss the buttons! I have a great button stash but have never used them on card projects, you've inspired me to try though :)
