F4A212 - Staple It Together - 03/14/14

A few years ago as I noticed some people using a plain ol' regular staple as an "embellishment" on their cards I thought, "Well, that's UGLY!! It just looks DUMB!" Yeah-yeah-yeah ... I have learned to EAT those words!!

So ... VERY easy challenge ... use a "plain ol' regular staple" somewhere on your creation ... it's kinda fun!!

Here is my sample:

I will be traveling today so will be unable to be creative with staples - which I have NEVER used on a card! I will be home next week and will challenge myself to use a staple or two.

Wendy- awesome challenge. Went with the edginess of this card, done with the chalkboard technique. Added some hand stitching, and glitter. Here's Say What?

I've never used staples on cards and I'm finding it hard to come up with an idea. I haven't given up, I'm still thinking.

Wendy- think the staples are good for emphasizing card sentiments, too! I used PS's Squeaky Clean set for my big eyed broom, and put a big yellow bow. Added a sticker style owl to keep him company. Here's Swept

I saw this challenge to use staples on a card early this morning and pretty much decided I wouldn't play, mainly because I NEVER use staples on card! Well, I changed my mind after being inspired by my friend's bicycle at the gym....she had parked it inside the gym, so it wouldn't get stolen and it had the cutest wicker basket on the front. Anyhow, I came home and whipped this card together in no time. Here it is:

For the challenge to use staple(s) on a card, I have used two staples to anchor the center of my twine on my card.

Thanks for looking!

Got inspired by the Eight Owls Nutritional Cereal packaging for Saturday's challenge and decided to add some staples to attach my card back. Here's Berry Thanks
