Winners of Challenge #126 - Buttons

Good, Good morning to blogger land and all of our players! What a PHENOMENAL week!! We have the best players here at 4 Crafty Chicks.  We had another amazing turnout this week for Lori's Buttons challenge.  Man can you all break out those buttons, there was some with one or others with a a bunch, but do you all ever know how to work it!! The creations were cards, scrapbook layouts, boxes, bottles, wall hangings and tags.  The inspiration shown here was out of this world, with incredible layouts, color palates, embellishments, layers, CAS and so many other details.  We wish we could pick all of you as winners because honestly they are all that good and deserve acknowledgement.  Be sure to do a little hopping to check out the works of art.

After much struggle for us girls, which we wouldn't have it any other way, we have picked our TOP 3.




Congratulations, ladies! Please grab your Golden Egg badge and display it proudly on your blog! We'd love it if you could link it back to our challenge blog too.

Your hostess for this week is me, "Tamie," and well I thought it would be fun to go easy on you and really well us too.  It is always said that diamonds are a girls best friend but I was thinking what is a crafters best friend?  Well for me and for many others who make cards and scrapbook pages a staple in their treasure chest of goodies is "PEARLS".  So to me they are a creative persons diamond. So put them on and share them with us, we can't wait to see them.
