Art Scouts! For the Girl Scout in all of us there is a new site devoted to doing crafts and getting buttons! What a fun concept. I know that My Sparkly Girl has wanted a more grown up version of Girl Scouts ever since the end of the Senior Troop and this may just be the perfect thing.
Art Scouts has new Button activities added bi-weekly and you can send an email with suggestions for buttons that aren't created yet. All you have to do is follow the instructions to recieve your button. This can include writing, searching the web, and there is an optional journal that you can download to record your progress on each Button.
When you are done with the BUTTON you email what you have learned and made and you will be listed as a BUTTON HOLDER in that activity. You can even get 1" Buttons along with a card of completion for a nominal cost.
So, you have learned a new skill, gotten a Button to prove to the world just how great you are, and can feel good that you did it all without having to sell the deadly but wonderful Thin Mints!
Happy Crafting!
