Default F4A280...Outside the Circle...7/3/2015

F4A280
Today...we have a brad-ical challenge.
That's right...


Break out the brads...but no circles allowed! Let's see those silly/funky/old/new/extra large brads that you hold old to b/c "one day you might need them for XYZ." Well, today is that day!! Be BRAD-ical...and NO ROUND brads.


I have a couple of ladies who will be helping with samples on my week of the Free 4 All. Thank you Jenifer Vanpelt and Serenity_Stamper forthese fun examples and for giving some creative inspiration to those stalking the challenges!

Smile F4A280 Enjoy the 4th

used a heart brad for my 4th of July card- along with stickers, and "fireworks" display with SU's Holiday Sampler (snowflake stamp). Added some red and blue ribbons. My sentiment comes from SU's Lovely Labels- here's Enjoy the 4th

Such a fun challenge! So difficult living with limited internet in a town that quadruples in size over the holidays....brings my internet speed to a crawl. Trying to comment on cards all week but rarely get through.

Hope this uploads ok!

F4A280, Firey Dragon by Margstamps - Cards and Paper Crafts at Splitcoaststampers

Here is my card for the ,F4A280, outside the circle, challenge. I wasn't sure this worked, I hope it does. I didn't have brads, but I had a circle. I still had a lot of fun making this card. Thanks for the fun challenge, and thanks for looking.
