I am done! I just finished and wondered if I could hand deliver them, Kelly? I'll e-mail you.

I have a question for my fellow button swappers..How are you attaching them to the cards? Or have you found another way to package them to mail? I have my buttons sorted, but have not found a secure way to attach them. Thanks!

I am trying knotted floss and it seems to work well and is kind of decorative

I was going to try and find that sticky stuff that I used to use when I taught S.S. It's like putty. But don't know where to look for it and don't want to run all over town. So I just sewed them on to scrapbook paper. Looks real cute with lace and they can just be cut off.

Thanks everyone..I used cross stitch floss and sewed them to some scrapbook paper that I punched holes in. It was a relaxing project to work on out on the porch after weeding the garden. All boxed up and will be mailed Monday on my lunch hour. Can't wait to see what comes in return!

Y'all are putting me to shame. My mother is visiting and we are "doing" things all day. I am stealing a few minutes here to catch up on somethings or else I would be "doing" something:-). Hopefully next week will not be to late...do not want to miss out on anything. Y'all take care

Kelly~
I've been reading about your button card swap...sounds like fun! Brave of you to host this. I would be interested in hearing how it went after it's all done. Was it easy, did your deadlines work, did everyone receive their stuff... It would be encouraging to those of us who haven't jumped in to hosting ! Thanks. ~Cheri

Kelly,
I will be sending off my buttons today. I have included a return padded envelope so you won't have to buy one. I will also include postage. Can't wait to see all the fun buttons. Good idea for a swap. Thanks again!

I will watch for yours Kristen, they seem to becoming through the mail quickly. Cheri, i will keep this post updated as best I can, I plan on hosting a "themed" button swap next maybe you will join us! this has been fun hosting a swap, seeing all the creativity is wonderful! Looks like it was a small enough group that the buttons should be shipped out way before July 15th.
Thanks ya'll for being such speedy swappers! |

My buttons are done as well. I can't get to the post until the week-end as I am vehicleless!
I will let you know when they are in the mail. They are finished though.
