    Afternoon everyone

    Hope we are all well today

    Need a bit of help! I've just found THIS and I am in love.

    Only one problem, I am not artistic at all! I need a pattern for the eye so I can get the buttons in the right place.

    Also it says on there put the pattern between the board and the t-shirt. This won't work if the t-shirt is dark so what can I do instead??

    TIA x

    nunnygirl - that link didn't work for me:( Don't know why...........I'll try again later just in case it was me.

    pepop - glad it worked for you ok...........well I've done another two pages of scrapbook no.2 -getting on quite well with it so not as frustrated as I was...........it's a slow progress but a sure one and very satisfying.
    Now really must consult my list and see what else I've got lurking that I really ought to do -just for a change................lol:rotfl:

    Noooo Nunnygirl why did you have to show me this?! It's amazing! For help with the design it might be worth rasterbating one? You upload a picture into the rasterbater and it makes it into a 'dot' picture which you can then print out, it may help with deciding where to put the buttons. I'd also suggest it to anyone as something which is a good tool to play around with, I printed a great picture of the Statue of Liberty off and had it on my wall in my student flat.

    I haven't been very crafty recently, all I've done is made some little hama pictures to decorate my Hama Bead organiser box and painted a few more phot frames white for my frame wall. Still done nothing for Christmas though!

    nunnygirl - thanks................love it but not sure I could get to grips with that many buttons.................lol:rotfl:

    I'm all behind myself for Christmas too Claire.........loads of ideas but all I';ve done so far are three 'pamper tubs' full of freebies.............not what you'd call 'crafty'
    The scrapbooks I'm doing are for christmas so I suppose they count but I really must do something a bit different just for a change.
    I would be unstoppable if only I could get started !

    Mary, I don't think I could either but I'm sure willing to give it a go as I've got a box full of buttons doing nothing!!

    nunnygirl - best of luck............I might be tempted but mums jar of buttons is depleted somewhat since I've been making button necklaces and bracelets.............:rotfl:
    I'm left with the more 'boring ones' and not sure what I can do with them.
