| Use your stash of brads as I did with this simple lining up technique. Draw a faint pencil line where you would like your row of brads on your layout. Pick a starting point and insert your brads alternating size and color. The end result is an eye-catching border. You can also use this technique to frame a photo or create a title. |

| Create eye catching elements for your next layout with brads, circles, a pen and embroidery floss. Layer the circles and brads in decorative patterns on your layout. Notice how Kimber used hers to frame the lower corner of her journaling block. Then she doodled on the circles and wrapped floss between the brads. |

| Lacintha created this whimsical pattern which matches her layout perfectly using brads and a pen. Lightly doodle a pattern on your layout. Randomly place brads and then fill in the gaps with a coordinating colored marker. |

Take a cue from Amanda and use your brads to highlight something on your layout. Amanda used brads to show off her title. By alternating the sizes of brads and placing them in a circle her title is spotlighted in a unique and creative way. |
