Scrapbooking embellishments come in every shape, size, color and material. Metal has always been a favorite of mine and has been a hot item in the scrapbooking world for years. Metal embellishments come in many forms; clips, words, tags, letters, brads, snaps, eyelets, and more. They can add dimension, sparkle and whimsy to your layouts.
For today’s FREEBIE FRIDAY it’s all about the clips! You have the chance of winning round clips, square clips, colored clips, small clips, large clips, and even a heart shaped clip.

You can use clips in so many ways on your layouts. Here are some ideas to get you started:
Place a clip on your journaling box.
Add clips to your Title Box, or if you’re using large die-cut letters in your title add them to one or two.
Add a clip to your photo…make it look like it is attached to your layout with the clip.
Use a clip to add a tag to your page, or even to clip on an extra “embellishment” like a diecut or a quote.
Tie a ribbon to your clip before adding it to your page to add a feminine touch or a bit of whimsy.
Clips are great embellishments on school pages. Have a large clip holding your journaling to look like a teacher’s “clipboard”.
If you’re worried about too much bulk in your scrapbooks stick with the flat clips and you won’t have a problem. Give metal a try on your next page, I’m sure you’ll be pleased with the results!
