I'm part of THREE blog hops today! This post is for the Scrapbook Steals hop. Click here for the SP & Company stamps hop. And don't forget Unity's weekly Friends with Flair hop. There are prizes on each one so please hop!!
******************************************************************
Today I am lucky enough to be part of Scrapbook Steals' first ever blog hop! You all know they are my favorite online retailer for discounted scrapbooking supplies! One lucky commenter will be drawn from one of the participating blogs to win a $20 gift certificate! So make sure you comment on all the blogs for the most chances to win!
There are so many cute buttons and brads included in today's steal from Basic Grey. So I decided to make a few projects! This first one is what you saw on the SS website.
I decided we needed some Spring decor in our house so out came some canvas, paint, paper, Mod Podge, flowers, stamps, ink, Glimmer Mist, scissors, and a hot glue gun!
The buttons are just adorable as centers for the flowers and as blossoms in the tree.
And lastly I made this little spinner card using one of the brads in the center:
And now my kids are happy that we have something decorative on the walls!
Then I noticed that the buttons were about the same size as some magnets that were laying on my desk. You have random magnets just laying on your desk too, right?? : ) So I grabbed some Authentique 6x6 pads and glued on some pretty papers, ran twine through the buttons, then hot glued them to the decorated magnets. Now my fridge doesn't look so dull!
Don't you just love my biscuit-colored 1990's fridge? Try not to be too jealous ; )And lastly I made this little spinner card using one of the brads in the center:

Thanks, for the ideas! I agree, that my house could use some Spring decor & you made it look so simple....I have a feeling, mine will look like a preschool project. Lol. Luckily, I have a preschooler, so no one's the wiser. ;) But, I gotta say, the magnets are the kinda project that I see & say, "I could, actually, do that!" And, I love finding those inspiring ideas.. Thanks, again~Kristin
Love how you used buttons on your projects. So cute.

Lovely projects! I love your spring wall hanging, what a fantastic idea! And the magnets are a great project to do with my daughter. Thanks for the ideas!
All great ideas! The decor piece is so cheerful and made me smile. I will be 'scraplifting' the magnets, can never have too many of them and they are so much cuter that the store bought kind (also a great idea for part of a hostess gift). Love the card too well done!
Love the cards..
Great ideas and use of the buttons. I love use them as flower centers also.
Heidi

What a fun card! And love the idea for magnets!

All the projects are great! Love the canvas!!
Thank you for the inspiration. I always feel better after I craft something. I think magnets are next on my to do list. I may tuck a few in an Easter basket I am creating. Happy Spring!

I love these magnets!! Can't wait to make a few myself.
Cute projects!
So creative!
Cute magnets!
Just lately trees of various types are my obsession! I find myself picking out pages where I can put trees just to use a different tree technique! Guess I'll be finding another layout to make this tree too!
Love the tree--so cute.
Sooo cute! Love the Baker's Twin with the buttons.
Your projects are so darling. TFS.
Wow, the canvas is so fun and cheerful! At first I thought it was a card and was trying to figure out how you got buttons that small, but I LOVE the fact that it's decor. The little button magnets are a great idea (our fridge doesn't hold magnets...even on the side, which means it's 100% plastic...it makes me feel so safe to eat food out of it). I love that spinner card, too. What did you use for the stamp? I could think of all kinds of words to put in there... ;)
