THE LAST THING YOU WANT...

...IS TO HAVE YOUR CARD COME APART AFTER YOU SEND IT!

You might recognize this shadow box card from my April 19th post which had the Forest Friends image inside.  When I picked it up off my table the other day, the inside fell out!  It seems the cheaper snail adhesive I was using does not hold very well.  Now I'm wondering how many of the cards I sent out with that tape also fell apart.  I still plan to use it up, but only on light weight paper and spots where the main points (such as corners) are held down with Scotch double stick tape.  Just thought you might like to know...  Meanwhile, I like this inside better and will use the other image on a standard card later.

I've had the same problem with the adhesive I was using. I went back to the Stampin' Up! or AD TECH snail adhesive. I think it works better. I still love this card.

If you want some really nice and inexpensive double-stick tape, go here-----www.rubberstampconcepts.com
Their tape is on a gigantic roll---not in a dispenser. But it's thin and it's strong and comes in several widths. Barbara
