Welcome to Cookin' Up Creation's Winter Wonderland of Embellishments Blog Hop. We're glad you stopped by. This is your first stop.The embellishment I have picked is shaped brads. There are so many fun ones on the market right now and so many ways to use them. (Need ideas? Check out the Design Team's projects at Cookin' Up Creations). I used the little birds from Eyelet Outlet & Brads on my card. My challenge to you is to create a card or LO using shaped brads. And, because I love to see your work, please upload your creations in the Cookin' Up Creations gallery in the Embellishments Blog Hop Album (you will need to register for the gallery if you are not already registered). Don't forget to leave a comment here. Tell me about the most unusual way you have used brads and I will enter you name in a drawing for an assortment of shaped brads PLUS there will be two prizes awarded. One prize is for participating in the blog hop and becoming a follower of the Cookin’ up Creations blog . A Grand Prize, will be awarded to the person who has left comments at all 12 blogs, completed all the challenges and loaded them into the gallery, and become a follower of the Cookin' Up Creations blog. Both prizes will be Random Drawings! Thanks for stopping by. Next you want to hop on over to see Suzanne at http://oscrappyday.blogspot.com/ Have a fun week!

Cool challenge Patti! I need to see what shapes my brads are in, I think I only have snowflakes and in AL, not so much snow! LOL
ReplyDeleteVery neat challenge!
ReplyDeleteAlecia
Cute card, Patti......love the way you used the brads!
ReplyDeleteHmmm......the most unusual ways that I've used brads would be dotting my letters with them and creating photo corners with them.
I'm done!
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed seeing all your great blogs and neat designs!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great way to use up stash!
ReplyDeleteOh I just hope I can find some. My supplies are in neverland waiting for their new home. These challenges are surely really going to be a challenge for me. LOL The most unusual way I have used brads was in a criss cross up the whole layout to hold the string that made a shoelace type effect. Hope that makes sense!! Off to look for brads... :) Thanks for letting us participate!
ReplyDeleteJust checkin' things out! I am trying to think of an unusual way I have used brads........I used them as pieces of coal on a snowman on a layout I did last week. Not very unusual, but all I can think of!
ReplyDeleteOkay, I went all the way around!
ReplyDeleteI think maybe my most unusual use of brads would be making a heart shape with them.
ReplyDeleteI'm all finished hopping & hope to work on some of the challenges this weekend. Thanks! :)
ReplyDeleteVery cute card! The most unusual thing I've done is to put brads in the shape of a letter for a title.
ReplyDeleteAll done! :)
ReplyDeleteLove that card, Patti....not real sure about the most unusual way I've used brads.....Hmmmmm
ReplyDeleteOK....that was fun....I'm done now too!
ReplyDeleteGreat challenge Patti. I jut might have to buy some brads. I am not sure what my most unusual use of them is.
ReplyDeleteWell I made it through the blog hop leaving comments along the way now its time to get off the computer and get the crativity moving so I can get some challenges done. Thanks ladies that was fun :)
ReplyDeletegreat challenge-- can't think of anything really unusual with shaped brads --- I am so boring! LOL
ReplyDeleteI have finished the hop, now need to clean off the table so I can play!!!!
ReplyDeleteI have hopped the circle and now I am ready to play. Thanks everyone for sharing your blogs!
ReplyDeletePam said: Great challenge. Love the card. I will have to look through my brads to see what I have.
ReplyDeleteI forgot to answer my own question...I guess the paper clips that you can view in the CUC gallery. But I'm thinking they could be used to make some cute baby hairbows!
ReplyDeleteCute card! I used a star shaped brad as a tree topper on a LO.
ReplyDeleteI can't believe I was able to finish this!! I was worried I would run out of time. This is my very first blog hop! Yippee! Thanks for the fun! This was great!!
