Button MADNESS!!!

Finally finished my buttons for the swap over at TallyScrapper.....I think they turned out pretty good! Should this be another addition to Coffee's Shoppe?? Perhaps. Making them is rather time-consuming, but oh so soothing. Cheap therapy, thy name is Sculpey clay! I also discovered some fun, new techniques with this batch that I'd like to try again....I can just see myself swimming in these things before too long. (I like to scoop them up in my hands and let them trickle through my fingers while laughing my deepest eeevil laugh.......is it just me?)

*sigh* Buttons make me happy.

Oh, in other news, since Robin's done the big reveal in our little game of layout tag, I can finally show off my layout!And one more....this is the one I did for Week 3 over at Gutter Girlz. The prompt is "When we fight", the song is "Come to Bed" by Gretchen Wilson, and the technique is torn/ripped. I veered away from the song and focused more on the fighting.....my two oldest kids fight constantly, and I wanted to immortalize that special relationship forever in our album. :)



Hope you're all having a wonderful Thursday.....there's an all new episode of Chowder on tonight! Yay!!
