Challenge 16 - Buttons

Hiya!

Thankyou to everyone who entered our picture inspiration challenge - there were some gorgeous entries :-) Don't forget to check out our previous post to see if you are a winner!

Our team leader Melly is unfortunately quite poorly at the moment (get well soon, Melly!) so this is Mel here (don't get us confused!) to introduce this fortnight's challenge.

This time we'd love to see what you can do with

BUTTONS!

Don't forget, it doesn't have to be a card, it can be a scrap page or any other crafty creation as long as it's got buttons on it :-) Maybe you could even have a go at making your own buttons???

We are lucky enough to be sponsored by the fabulous

Digi's With Attitude

Digi’s With Attitude! is a Digital Stamp Company that brings Sass & Attitude to your stamping projects!

Meet the newest Attitude’s in town!

’Grumpy Gretchen’ is a sure beauty with sexy curves and very unique facial features.

Her hairstyles constantly change, as does her clothing and element she is in.

She is sassy and isn't afraid to show it! Everyone loves Grumpy Gretchen. We know you will too!

You can now meet the new Animals With Attitude! too! They are in the store and ready for you to adopt them.

As always you have two weeks to enter our challenge. Now normally I'd be asking you to add your name to the linky thing below except I'm not as experienced at this as the lovely Melly and, like a dufus, I deleted it - ooops! I think I've managed to add a new one but if you're having trouble with it, please leave a link in a comment just this once and I'll look at all your gorgeous entries from the naughty chair!

Love 'n' hugs,

and the other Dream Valley girls

and our second Sponsor

"Sassy Studio Designs is a fresh new company. We have been designing and selling for a year now, and we have been kindly received into the community of digi stampers and crafters. I started designing images shortly after I started stamping, reason being...I didn't hardly like anything else out there I was a young adult woman at the time I was engaged, had no kids, I wanted fun sexy images that I would enjoy using and my friends and hubby would enjoy receiving. I designed images for 2 other digi stamp companies when my wonderful hubby kept trying to get me to go out on my own. So in June 2009 thanks to the few faithful followers I had, Sassy Studio Designs was born! It has been a wonderful journey starting my own store. We have just grown so much these past months.I still try to keep "

Lindsay Dyer: keep with my original philosophy and reason for designing stamps, make them fun and keep them sassy...and yes sometimes even sexy!
