Eric,

The mistake in thinking you may be making, is that you try to use the CommandButton control. Though you can (invisible), my solution isn't about a CommandButton at all. Just Containers, and at your wish a Label in it, an Image, and Shapes to finish it off.
Always think of making according objects transparent or just not, and remember that everything which is not transparent, masks the underlaying objects.
Also don't forget to "click through" a top-level object to the lower ones (when the click is needed there).

You may need some MouseDown and MouseUp methods to control the "depth" of the Containers, in order to show the pressed button (i.e. shift the position of the underlaying Container).

HTH,
