Finally! Finished Birthday Card!


I was given a very generous sample of assorted Glue Dots
by TwitterMom's and did some more digging to find the velvet Ribbon and The Chipboard letter I used to finish this card.
I had never used the Glue Dot in a runner before, and that was so handy to just run it along on the paper where I wanted the dots instead of applying each dot individually! I had also never tried the Re-positional Glue Dots before, mighty handy when you attach an embellishment and realize it is not on straight! (That NEVER happens to me, but, you know, I thought for other people.....HAHA!)
I have to say I definately prefer the Glue Dots over a Glue Pen, since you have to wait for the glue from the pen to dry before it "Sticks" and the Glue Dots stick immediately. Gotta love that instant gratification! I plan on making a bunch of easily customizable Birthday cards on hand in the future so I can quickly customize it for the Birthday Recipient and have the card in their hands in a more timely fashion. WE have a lot of craft projects to do this summer, and I feel much safer putting the Glue Dots into the hands of my kiddoes then a tube of Elmer's...Mom's you KNOW why! Happy Bonding!
