Papertrey Blog Hop


Welcome to the PTI Blog Hop! This is my first ever and am so excited to be participating!

This months criteria....use BUTTONS! How can I go wrong with that? So here is my card....



I love Beyond Basic Borders....thanks to my friend Jen and Betsy Veldman! A super cute card in Paper Crafts magazine caused us to NEED this set! :)

Next, I just have to show off my Vintage Button ring! I wear this thing everywhere and I get so many complements on it! It was made by my friend Heather! She does amazing things with Button Jewelry! I need to have her make me one out of some PTI colors! That would be fun!



Thanks for hopping by today! I would love to know what you think!
