Happy Tuesday.  Today our challenge over at Die Cuttin' Divas is to use buttons.  The Design team knocked it out of the park with this one and had some really cute images so be sure to head over and check out their amazing creations.
For my project, I made an A2 Easel card using the Winter Frolic Cricut Cartridge.

 For the buttons, I chose to use them instead of the bulbs for the tree.
