Do you have a favorite item you use on almost every layout/project?
Mine use to be brads. I love them! But lately I’ve gotten lazy and seems like I’m using enamel dots all the time. So, either way I need something small and round I guess. Come to think of it, before brads, it was eyelets.
I like them all, I should start mixing it up and use them all a little more often.

I’d say either a heart or a scallop border. I love both and use them all the time.

Elsabelle I love a scallop border, I should use that more! giraffemom I want to see more on mine too. I recently bought a tiny sewing machine at HL for this, I just haven’t had the right thing to use it on yet. It was kind of a splurge use of a gift card I had.

I have to stop myself from using (digital) enamel dots and paint splatters on every single page.

Enamel dots/shapes or Nuvo drops.
Those are probably tied. It depends on what color I need and what colors of each that I have.

Enamel dots. Love those.
Actually I would say I use them often, not on "almost every" layout.

I use cardstock as a base & include a heart (ie punch, die, stamp, enamel shape, etc.) on every layout.

Enamel dots or sprinkles of some kind. Circles, stars, hearts, all good.
Absolutely love the way I can add them to clusters or just splash them around.

Enamel dots. Also, as you mentioned OP, it used to be the decorative brads-I HAD to buy those with every collection that I could!
I am making an effort to use those brads more, I used 9 on a layout the other day, woo hoo! Nowadays a rip the prongs off though and use the Stampin Up dimensional foam dots to adhere, they seem the perfect height!

Enamel dots, for sure. I have been using my Stickles lately, too.

I will say enamel dots because my friend says they add that finishing touch to most layouts. I have also been using my stickles lately as well, so ditto mikklynn |

Come to think of it, before brads, it was eyelets. I like them all, I should start mixing it up and use them all a little more often. I do love mini brads.
I can't think of a favorite item I use on most layouts. My pages are typically paper, cardstock, and a diecut of some kind. It widely varies between manufactured, electronic, or manual.
With pocket scrapping, I seem to use stickers more. Also stamping simple images like words or dates.

Ephemera/coordinating stickers. I like to add them to photos and layer them.

Enamel dots &/or Nuvo drops. I’m finally getting the hang of them.

Usually my Tiny Attacher and some kind of stamp. Here lately I have been embossing on my projects.

I cycle into and out of different products and techniques, but almost every page I put together has a cardstock base, inked edges (often at least one of them torn) and letter stickers.
Have pulled out a ton of chipboard with the hope of using some of that this month. So far, two pages with cb on them...

I don’t have enamel dots - sounds like I need some. Especially because the thing I seem to always include s circles of some sort! 😂

I use some sort of sprinkly thing on just about every page I make. Often it's gold mist, but I also use enamel dots, the tiny doodlebug enamel hearts (my favourite sprinkly thing) and occasionally tiny stickers like hearts or stars.

I'm another one that sprinkles everything- enamel dots, gems, little wooden shapes, sequins, etc.
I also use tons of ink spatter and/or stencils. Either or both show up on most of my layouts.
The other thing that shows up on most of my layouts is foam squares. I don't have many flat layouts- I have to pop something up.

Probably ephemera. But I love printed chipboard a lot--I just don't think I am able to use it as much as ephemera.

I can't think of any embellisment I use on every page but there is pen or marker of some kind on every layout. The journaling, the date, outlining the words on a title, or fake stitching.

Stamps and black ink. For some reason, my go-to when I make physical projects. ETA: And tiny word stickers. Don't ask why. I just love them. Digitally, I'm struggling with the same issue as AussieMeg : I just want to add splatter on every page.  |
