How to add Flair to a Button

I got some amazing buttons from Fun Buttons to pass out during Creativation 2018 as a fun little giveaway to my crafty friends at the show, but I wanted to add a little flair to these cute buttons, so I came up with a fun idea, add a circle around it!  


These buttons were so cute, but when I passed them out they did not have my name or the Fun Buttons company name on them, so I made a personal flair circle around it as a business card!  Check out the video on how I made them!



The buttons started out super cute, and the saying on them is adorable!  Just take a look.



These came from an amazing company Fun Buttons, they have so many types of buttons to pick from.  Make sure to check them out!



I made the template for the paper behind the button in Photoshop (it took a few tries to get it just the right size) and I then printed them out on a thick cardstock.


I then used my Xyron Creativae Station Double Sided Laminate to turn the entire sheet into a durable surface and die cut out all 75 circles.  The holes in the template were to guide me as to where to punch out the holes for the button to go in.  Here is a picture of the back of the button.



My dad was actually visiting my at the time and did the amazing job of hole punched out 75 back pieces for each button and also added the button to each circle saving me a ton of time!!  I now had a cute button with my name and the company name on it to pass out to my friends at the show!!  


Here are some of the pictures of a few of my crafty friends who got the buttons, can you spot the button on the lanyards?










Did you spot any of the buttons?  Thanks so all my amazing crafty friends you all rock and thanks so much to Fun Buttons for your cute buttons to pass out to everyone!!
