So what is your favorite embellishment on cards?
I have to go back and forth between dies, ribbons, and buttons. I also love brads ooo and flowers. Well, I am not sounding very decisive am I? I guess if I had to put them in order, I would say I almost always use dies to cut out my images (but not necessarily as embellishments). As embellishments I would say in this order: Buttons, flowers, brads, lace/ribbon. How about you?

Cute card, Holley! I like the step style! I enjoyed reading about your favourite embellishments. If I'm making a CAS card, my favourite embellishment is die-cuts, sequins or gems. For a more layered and embellished card, I love adding die-cuts, flowers, butterflies, ribbon, and charms. Great question!
such a cheerful card with that fun fold!
almost every card I make has vintage buttons and ribbons or trims of some kind on it. :) and usually the more the better!
Lovely Spring themed stepper card with fresh spring colours and a cute fun image! xx
Oh, I love this card. It's so bright and positive!! And great shape too!
If die cuts count as embellishments, I'd have to say those as I use them on *all* of my cards, but otherwise my favourite embellishments are flowers, lace and ribbons.
Hugs! xx
Lovely bright card Holley. Fabulous image. X
Hi Holley this is a gorgeous card I love the image and the sentiment. Take care. Hugs Jackie
Lovely card. It's so optimistic :)
I love all embellishments! But my favourote are flowers and gems.
Hugs, Iwona
Cute Card! I guess my favorite embellishments on cards is bling dots and glitter glue, just as an accent to the image.
I love the step style card too. This one is so cheerful and fun. I love using paper flowers and die cuts. I love ribbon. I think I love most embellishemnts.
This is such a cute Card. I love your use of embellishments. And the image is so cute. I like using dies myself. I would have to say my favorite embellishments to use right now would be wood veneer, die cuts and flowers. I also like gems and brads and ribbon depending in the card I am making.
Love this image and card Holley! I very rarely make a card without a die cut on it. I can't afford to. I spend so much money on dies.
This so cute.
Love your oranges and yellows and with the blue they just SING! Love your embellies, too. I seem to have a thing for adhesive gems and pearls. I love die cuts and flowers, too. xxD
Great colours on your card - my go-to embellishments are usually flowers or butterflies
Love your card with the yellow/orange color theme. Focal image is adorable too. I use lots of die cuts, brads & eyelets, some buttons & ribbons (depends it I'm mailing or not. Love bling, dots & gems too.

A fabulous card Holley. Great design and wonderful colours.
My Top Three favourite embellishments would have to be - in no particular order - ribbon, lace and flowers. Die-cuts and punched shapes often sneak in too. I'm useless at CAS cards, lol xx
Ha, she'a me. Well me 60 years ago.lol
I was such a tomboy.
As far as embellishments I tend to use flowers most often. Then brads, ribbon, buttons, etc
Hi, Holley.Like your card. I like to use flowers, sequins and ink. I just love to distress with ink.
Sweet step card in beautiful spring color combo! For embellishments, I always like to start with flowers, ribbon, gems, charms and butterflies and for heavy card i love to add with more embellishments!
Love this clown. They are a favorite of mine. My favorite embellishments for cards are flowers, ribbons and fibers and gems to add lots of sparkle!
Lovely cheerful card with all the bright colours . My favourite embellishment has to be dies then flowers and lace. Hugs Jennifer xx
Really lovely card, I wish I could make such a bright card without arguing with my self if I should use yellow or not :)
My favourite embellishments are the ones from small dies (hearts, stars..) and sequins always look good :)
A beautiful card and love the sentiment too!

Hi Holley. Very cute card. I like brads, metal charms and lace. I have lots of buttons but always forget to use them!!!! Hugz
Adorable card! I like to make my cards flat usually because I send them in the mail so often. So I punch snowflakes or hearts or stars. But I do love brads and self-adhesive rhinestones. I have a ton of buttons but very seldom use them.
Such wonderful, happy spring colors! I usually reach for charms, the fake gems, tiny sea shells and flowers.
So stinking cute! Love the colors and the embellies. I go to flowers and buttons!
Love the bright cheerful colours on this one too Holley!
My favourite embellies: crystals/gems and flowers
This card screams Spring with the bright colors! My favorite embellishment is ribbons.
The colors in this card just make me smile

Hi Holley - I love pearls and rhinestones the best. I've been using a lot of sequins, since I got some new glue. I love lace and and ribbons and buttons and flowers and die cuts!
I think my favorite embellishments are gems, Washington tapes and rub-ons! I can't seem to get enough of any of those things!

Love Spring and can not wait for it to come, it Austin it should not be too bad but for you it feels pretty cold. Embellishments dies cuts, bling dots, glitter glue, gems, ribbon and buttons.
My favorite embellishment is rhinestones. A little bling always makes anything more fun!
adorable child on your card. mostly I use self sticking gems, brads or ribbon...buttons are not my thing.

What a bright and cheerful card. I love the image.
Right now I've been using a lot of bling on my projects.
Love the bright sunny card. Cute image. I find myself using glitter and gems for embellishments these days.
Fun card Holley! Love the colors you used. I love my dies too. I think my new favorite is bling of some kind. It can be sequins, enamel dots or traditional rhinestones.
Let me put it this way, I leave no embellishment behind as I love anything and everything I can work with that day.
Good morning Holley. The bunny and the Random Acts of Kindness are not my favorites. The are nice cards and the colors are perfect. I really like the one with the saying Live life to the fullest.

I'm a bit like you Holley, I use whatever takes my fancy.
Oh I love flowers so this card is beautiful Holley.
A bright spot of sunshine! This card just screams happy!
I use bling & pearls most. Sometimes ribbon.
Wow! This is a really hard one. I think the ones I like most are flowers, brads and buttons.
Love the card. Awesome color combination.
Lovely bright card!! Love to use flowers with ribbons, or by themselves!
I think my order would be: rhinestones, ribbons, flowers and buttons. I also use die cuts little to embellish cards, but some times I used them to make flowers, together with punches.
Love the bright colors in your card!!!
Lovely creation. My fav embellishments are flowers and rhinestones.
I Love the yellow flowers...beautiful card
