Today's included [my 2 favorite] One Layer Wednesday 83; (inspired), this week hosted by Jennifer Stiles, and than Less is More 59; masking.
For my next card, I used the sketch from Retro Sketches 3. I had a card from last week's sketch and forgot to upload it for the sketch challenge - duh! [ I felt better when I saw 2 other stampers had done the same thing!] Today is the first day of the challenge and I am there!
Yesterday I found this tutorial on SCS. How FUN..ny that Paper Players challenge today was CAS with buttons! Well, of course I had to join in because I really wanted to try these self-made buttons!
So, what do you think? I have to say I LOVE THESE!! So fun and easy to make, and I am thrilled with the end result.
That's it for me today -- now I am off to start playing with my new Stamp School goodies that arrived! You'll see what I did with them at the end of the month...
Thanks for stopping by~

I wondered about doing a card based on the blue block too Vicki... the other items looked a little tricky, but your card works superbly for the LIM challenge too!
Thanks so much

Gorgeous blue tones on your LIM card.
I played a little today myself...seems like stamping time is so limited lately.....love both of these, but esp love that first classy CAS
Gorgeous cards, Vicki! I LOVE your "homemade" buttons. How creative! I may have to give these a try! Thanks for joining us at The Paper Players this week!
I LOVE these cards Vicki! Gorgeous Layout and masking on the first card. Your second card is beautiful - I'm in LOVE with your buttons ♥
Two beautiful cards Vicki! Love the fresh bright colours!
Vicki, Two great cards, so lovely and colorful. Those buttons, fabulous, and I am waiting now for the end of the month to see what you come up with using your new supplies. Enjoy your week.
Always so clever and cool! Love those buttons....will be trying that...hugs GF
Hey...cool buttons! So glad you had a good w/e! Mine was filled with working both days and NO stamping either day! Hope to remedy that tomorrow and Tuesday when I'm off...in between painting and laundry. :-)
Gorgeous cards Vicki! Love the masking on the first and your handmade buttons are fabulous! So glad we had a challenge where you could share them. Thank you for joining my button challenge at The Paper Players!
The buttons look fabulous! Thanks for playing with the Paper Players.
So glad you made it into this week's Retrosketch challenge Vicki! The buttons add a lot of drama to the card! The vibrant colors really are eye catching!
Love the blue on that simply stunning CAS card and hand made buttons!! very clever :)
Love the "box" inspired card, Vicki. Blue and masking-two of my favourite things and you have used them so beautifully.
Beautiful blue card for LIM, one of my most favourite colours for card making (not that I use it very often, lol!). I do like the other card too and I'm off to find out how to make home made buttons!
