Circle shapes are a staple in scrapbooking. From brads to buttons, you'll always find circles parading in the scrapbook store--and in your home. It's time to look at these brads and buttons in new ways to see how you can add a creative twist to them on your scrapbook pages and get more from your scrapbooking purchases. Try one of these ideas.
* Place a button in the center of a flower accent.
* Replace the dot of an "i" with a brad.
* Add a brad or button over circular elements of a rub-on design.
* Spell out a title using brads.
* Carefully use wire cutters to snap several buttons in half, and then use the semicircles to create a scallop border.
* Use buttons to frame a photo.
* Create a page border with brads.
* Place mini brads on cupcake accents to look like sprinkles.
* Use a large brad as a journaling spot for a phrase, quote, or caption.
* Secure a long ribbon strip to a layout with a brad on each end.
* Use brads as bullet points for list-style journaling.
* Use brads as eyes on paper-pieced robots and other objects or animals.
