Vintage Button Cards



Hi fellow floozies! I thought I'd share some of my favourite old button cards with you. How adorable are these blue and green flowers, and the red celluloid grapes - almost good enough to eat! More lovely buttons here! Cheers!

I love the old button cards and have quite a few myself. I have the Bluebird one, but mine only has a few of the buttons on it. I used an image of it to make a fabric postcard for a swap. You can see it here:

I'm a Button Floozie wannabe. I was to late to join your group, but enjoy all your postings.

Dear Viv Lyn! So happy to see that you are a Button Floozy! Such a fun blog to visit. I am most happy for you to send me a block, and I will send you one in kind. I may be a bit slower than you because I am making many, but send it to you I will! I am having the most fun with this project and hope you will as well! Elizabeth

These are great button cards! I have resolved to not removing buttons from my cards, as they are little works of art! I posted on the Button Floozies Flickr page, but wanted to put this open call out to the button lovers:

I'm doing a new blog (atomsatwork.blogspot.com) feature w/people talking about their relationship w/ buttons,would you be interested in doing a survey for it? If so email me at atomsatwork@gmail.com Thanks!

You are right! These are adorable. They must display very sweetly. Do you ever end up using them? Or do you prefer to keep them intact?

I almost enjoy the cards more than the buttons, but when the two are together, it's explosive!
