Hello Blessing!

If you have your mixin below:

@mixin button {
     font-size: 1.25em;
     background-color: $btn-background;
}

You can include these styles in all of the anchor elements by including them like my code below:

a {
  @include button; 
}

This should help you pass the test. Let me know if this helps. :)

Thank you. It worked.

$btn-background: #dc143c;

@mixin button { font-size: 1.25em; $btn-background: #dc143c; } a { background-color: $btn-background; font-size:1.25em; }
