Default Tutorials on Attaching Buttons to Cards?
I am intrigued with adding buttons to my cards/pages. Are there any tutorials/instructions anywhere? Like what materials can be used (string, ribbon), etc.

There are quite a few out there. You actually don't attach the button with the string etc. You just thread the strings through the button and then attach the button to the card with a glue dot.

HERE is a youtube video of attaching buttons to bows


And you do the same to your card. So simple but looks amazing!

Many times I will use super glue to make sure the button doesn't come off!
