Buttons


Today I would like to show you how I always have the suitable buttons for my cards available

 It really does not take long.
 All you need is:
 any chosen punch (heart punch from SU)
 Glue
Crop ( to make the button holes)
Cardstock
Design  paper
Glossy accents'
 
 First you punch 4 x card stocks with your punch and 1 x design paper
 

then glue all 5 parts on top of each other


 You can distress the corners with Distress ink as an option


 Next step is to punch the holes with the Crop as we want them to look like a button

last but not least I overlay it with Glossy accents to give the buttons its last touch

thereby the buttons obtain a beautiful glossy touch after they have dried


 I hope I was able to inspire you with this little tutorial...
