How to make buttons for your posts

If you are like me, you have often wondered how bloggers make those cute buttons for challenges and other things. I figured I new how to get the text on them, but where do they get the cute photo's?

Well...Beth over at Beth Fish Reads created a post earlier this month explaining just how to do that. I read the instructions and they were wonderful! Check it out here.

She mentions in her post that she uses a program to do the watermarking. If you remember, last month I did a post on paint.net, a free program. You can actually use paint.net to add text to the photo (like in my header). So here's a link to my post as well in-case you are interested in using it to create buttons.
