Duh

Ok so I've been using a variety of glues while making my cards and some of them are a little warped. Was trying to get a good balance of making it stick and not looking all lumpy and it just wasn't working. My best friend was talking to someone at her work who suggested a tape runner.

All I can say is DUH.

I haven't ever used one, so I'm guessing that's why it didn't occur to me to use that on the cards. I have one in my stash that I picked up from Big Lots a while back. Gonna have to try that tonight if I do cards.

Hello there! I finally started a blog here so that I could follow several other crafty blogs and store blogs. I thought I'd posted here before, but it seems the posts are gone. No biggie, I can make more. ;)

A few weeks ago, my best friend and I started making greeting cards. I made more than I could send so I started trying to figure out what to do with the extra cards. A poster on the Two Peas message boards mentioned Operation Write Home, so I googled it and figured out that this was the perfect thing for me to participate in.

I've been a scrapbooker and a stamper for years, and this seems like it will be a great way to use up some of my extra supplies. Course that doesn't mean that I haven't bought new stuff to use to make cards..... Plus it will be lots of fun!

I have made about 25 cards so far and cannot wait to make more!
