Build-A-Brad Tutorial

 

 

Step 1: Punch hole in middle of flower. Step 2: Stamp Image on scrap pager and use 1/2" circle punch to punch out the image that you want in your Build-A-Brad.

 

Step 3: Add a small amount of liquid glue or glue dot to middle and add 1/2" punched circle. Step 4: Carefully remove top layer from package ensuring you don’t leave fingerprints on bottom and position on top of circle. Press down firmly to set.

Step 5: Place brad in punched holes.

Step 6: Flatten out the back of the brad. Voila!!! You now have a lovely designed by you Brad.

Here’s the finished card

.

For this card we used a 6×6 piece of Kraft cardstock and folded it in half. We used a Soft Sky and Very Vanilla layer. The ink colour was Old Olive to match the Old Olive ribbon. We added a Pewter Build-A-Brad in the middle of the cut out flower. I love Build-A-Brad, it really adds that special touch to a card.
