I am about to buy some things to make my invites and have seen some buttons to add as embellishments. I was wondering how these would be attatched to a card as they are buttons with shanks and I am a cardmaking virgin. Help me pleeease

    I honestly don't know - I make cards as a hobby and have only added small flat-backed buttons. Can you find some flat-backed buttons that are similar in design?

    Found this

    Scrapbookers, card makers, and other people interested in paper crafts often incorporate buttons into their projects as well. However, these crafters must use a special sharp cutting tool to remove the button shank so the button embellishment is able to lie flat against the paper. Large craft stores, as well as specialty scrapbooking stores, often sell button shank removers for this purpose.
