Craft Hoarders Anonymous Challenge Blog ~Challenge #14~

Welcome to challenge #14 ~Button Up~ at Craft Hoarders Anonymous Challenge Blog!

Crafters of every stripe are button hoarders!  Buttons are pretty, inexpensive, and extremely versatile.  If you are a card maker, quilter, layout artist, or anything in between, you probably have a button hoard!  Buttons come in many sizes, styles, shapes, and colors, plus they are easy to store...usually in cute containers!  Pull out those bins of buttons and use some of them for your challenge project!

This challenge is also a Blog Hope with Altered Pages!  Here's a little introduction for you!

Here's my DT project for this challenge blog hop.  I made a file folder mini album inside of a larger file folder from Heidi Swapp.  I used several images from Altered Pages for the pages and some buttons that I had in my hoard along with some stamp stickers of buttons from my Tim Holtz hoard as well!  Along with some sewing stickers as that also is the design team theme for this challenge..so fun!

This is a photo of the cover of the large file folder (from Heidi Swapp) which holds the file folder mini album.

Here's a few photos of the inside and pages of the mini album
