The challenge today is..... BUTTONS!!!!! So sift through your stash, or go find an old shirt and pop them off... or even check he hem if your trousers for a spare... but find a button somewhere and get to Krafting!  Here's my Kreation for buttons challenge! 

I grabbed a pre-fab bookmark from the pile I have leftover from an old project Evan and I had done last summer.  Then I stamped this precious little bear (from the Buddy Bears set by Emilie Goulet) on it and went to town coloring with my Copic markers. Since this isn't the highest quality paper I had to color fast so that I could blend and be super careful not to oversaturate the paper.  Here's the colors that I used: 

Pillow: C3,1,0 and the colorless blender. 

Bear: E39,37,35,33,31

Nose: R20,22

Then I grabbed my trusty craft glue and my mason jar full of buttons, I found a length of white satin ribbon and I cut into pieces.  I attached the bookmark to a piece of Kraft paper, then I glued on the ribbons and trimmed them, then I glued on the buttons and let it all dry.  Now I have an adorable little bookmark to keep my spot while I'm away (making my coffee)!  Hooray!
