Cooking With Cricut Challenge #95 - Buttons and Brads

Hi everyone and welcome to another challenge Wednesday here and over at COOKING WITH CRICUT! This week's challenge is to include buttons and/or brads in your project. Oooo, there are so many possibilities with these two items!  I chose a simple, yet elegant card using some rub-ons,  gem-filled brads,  stickles,  ribbon and the Storybook Cricut cartridge for the decorative corner that I put in the center of the card!






Thanks for stopping by today and don't forget to create your own project with buttons and/or brads and link it up over at COOKING WITH CRICUT to win a great prize!

Great card using great colors. I really like the way you used teh brads. The corner cut and sentiment stamp create a great look.

Jen I love the purple and black. Cool idea to make the corner cut big like that. Would make great layout pockets too.

The valentine cuts for the fro...
