Vintage Buttons and Paper Lace ~

First, I had to share this: My giveaway is celebrating 300+ followers, well you made the 300 possible! Now we are approaching 400! I must be doing something worth while here for that many to want to stop by
and comment. Thank you to all the bloggers! If you don't have a blog, no worries! I appreciate all
who come by and just say hello. I hope this is just as much fun for you as it is for me, I have an idea
that it is! Happy blog hopping!
These buttons were a winning bid on Ebay last week. You can take a close
look at the dreamy creamy ones by clicking on the photo to enlarge.
To me they look good enoughh to eat. Maybe?
I've been punching. Well, I should should say paper punching.
I had a 50% coupon for Michaels and used it for a MS punch combo.
One does corners and the other does what you see above.

I seem to have taken a liking to punching! :-)
Don't forget my giveaway HERE.

  2. Great buttons!

    Now, you've made me want to go out and get that punch, what with the creative way you've used it. I'll have to wait until I'm out of this cervical collar and then it's Michaels here I come! LOL

  23. I'm glad you qualified your punching as paper punching...my bullied-at-school,artistic middle daughter is into Kickboxing and when she came home from school last year I never knew whether her punching was people or paper related...sometimes it was both...
