Embellishment help...

How do I get the itty bitty buttons glued to the paper? What do I use to hold them? what kind of glue do I use??? How do I use the push pin looking ones with out making a mess of the paper?

Sorry new to this...pls bear with me!!!

I think there are mini glue dots, those would probably work on the buttons. If not, what about a dot of glue like Scrappy glue. As for the others, are you talking about mini brads? For those I use my 1/16 hole punch to make a tiny hole in the paper first. HTH some.

mini brads???what are those???
they just look like a push pin with a star instead of a dot...

Glue dots for the buttons , and punch a small hole ( with a large needle or small hole punch ), than put brad through the hole and flare out the little legs on the ends.

OK I get it....yup I have some of those...
It doesnt sound too difficult...I should be able to manage...but what are these glue dots?

Sorry, I'm an amatuer...when I thought stencils and markers and collaging pictures was enough...maybe even a few die cuts made it all work...you guys broaden my horizens to all this neat stuff!!! Now to figure out how to use it!!!

Thanks Ladies!

I use mini glue dots to adhere small buttons - so far, so good .
I understand about using additional embellishments - I used to think my pages were fine with a few stickers & matting a photo here & there. Then folks here started talking about various embellishments, & Patty sent me some embellishments in the first SS Swap.
