Time for a Birthday

Thursday is my good friend Mandy's birthday. I met Mandy through SCS a few years ago when she invited me to a local get-together with a small group of stampers. We've been friends ever since, and I'm so glad!

Recently Mandy hooked me up with an invite to Pinterest (so if I'm not working on my grad course, you can take a guess what I'm doin'). I'm totally addicted! Right now, I've been pinning a ton of stuff for my classroom. (Check it out here...& let me know if you need an invite) After seeing one of Mandy's pins a few weeks ago, I knew that I had to make this for her:


a button clock!! She loved it (and so did I....guess who may be making another)


Here's the card that I sent with it. Don't ya just love buttons?

Please don't do that . . .when I first found out about pinterest I think I lost two days of my life . . at least! I won't go there, but I will say that this button clock is sooo adorable! What a neat project!
