It's Friday Friends With Flair and Time for Sweet Nothin's!


You know when you find something that you really love that you just have to have? Well, I was buying yarn today for an afghan I am making and I found this fun and funky button trim. I just had to have it!

And then I looked at the price tag....... $11.99 a yard!! Ack!! How can trim be that much? Well, I didn't end up with yards and yards of it - just 1/3 yard with my 40% off coupon for Hobby Lobby. And I still love it!


Images are by Unity Stamp Co. I stamped in VersaMark and embossed my images, then colored with Copics and Spica Glitter pens (LOVE those). I pierced the lower right corner, and added pearls.

And on a side note, I am going to be the proud owner of Eco Chic!  I won it on AJ Otto's blog yesterday!  Woot!

    I love your button trim and your story and your coupon at Michael's! I hope you have someone special to send this cute card to. I think I'd be tempted to keep it and frame it.

    What cute button trim - I can understand the "have to have it" -- impressed with your compromise instead of buying a full yard. Very cute card.

    The button trim is perfect on this card! It's fun to indulge in something we cannot pass by and use it on the unexpected! How nice to have a Hobby Lobby nearby!
