Cute as a Button

As part of an assignment way back in third grade, my son had to interview one person a month and then give a very brief presentation to his class. To make this monthly assignment easier for him and for me, I rounded up all of his grandparents and then recorded my son interviewing all of them. My folks and my husbands folks have always gotten along splendidly so this group interview session was perfect. A question from my son would trigger memories and each parent would have to add upon what was already reminisced about. It's actually quite a treasure to have all of this on tape especially since Zak has already lost one of those treasured grandparents.

During Grandma Loman's portion of the interview, Zak asked her about games that she used to play as a child. She responded with, "Button, Button, Who's got the Button." Imagine Zak and my complete and utter delight when this hand crafted wall art came into the rummage sale at our church two weeks ago. Zak immediately thought we should buy just to remember Grandma. I assured him that we remember Grandma everyday and that we really didn't need this. Then he said, "Well it would make a great kit." That's my boy! Always ready to help his mom with ideas.


Well, he was right, it did make for a great kit. I wasn't so sure about the usability of "Button, Button, Who's got the Button" so I swapped that out for "Cute as a Button" since we all have little cuties in our lives. I did print it on the twill tape as a bit of a tribute to Grandma Loman.

The kit is available in the DSP shop here.

I created this add on pack to go along with it.
The add on pack is available for free as a posting bonus. Find out more about that here.

Very soon to the shop at Digital Scrapbook Place will be this great word art for the cute as a button kit.

So...I have to wonder what great kit idea my son will find for me next.
