ID#125624). It is ergonometric and comfortable for the hand. It has a larger end (best used for designer paper which is light and could tear otherwise) and a smaller end (best used for cardstock). It comes with the Scoring board which is the most powerful way to use it(did you purchase one of these last year?) or it can be purchased separately and used in conjunction with the groove in a standard paper trimmer.<br />I meant to have a "card-making 101" session this summer to cover info such as this - but there were not enough weeks in the year, let alone the summer. Perhaps I will have to get one on my calendar anyhow!<br />Hope this helps. Feel free to ask more if I have not been clear.

What do you use to make the fold in the center of the card stock?

Maybe I got carried away with the # of rhinestones on the 3rd version, but the simple elegance of #2 speaks to me. And I love the script for the Merry Christmas sentiment! Very elegant and refined!<br />As for snail, you can see it on pg 177 of the catalogue. It is a great adhesive for cards and scrapbooking. Quick (no drying time). No mess (unlike glue sticks). Safe for scrapbooking. And you can buy refills after your original runs out. It works really well with raised/embossed images too. It is a 2-sided "tape runner" and as you drag it across the page it leaves a "trail" of adhesive behind it. Hence the name "snail" (like when those little guys leave a path of goo behind....)<br />Hope you've enjoyed your summer.

I like the way that the lines of the ribbon show up. The color choice is great. I love the reds and greens of Christmas but this is a nice change. The Merry Christmas stamp is lovely. <br /><br />What is snail?Olivianoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6872292586147410575.post-64337819420065709612012-09-04T17:15:41.954-04:002012-09-04T17:15:41.954-04:00Great idea Penny.

Rhinestones as a bauble at the bottom of the ornament brings back memories of the beautiful old hand-blown glass heirloom ornaments - you know, the ones our mothers cried about when we accidentally broke them (and now that we're grown up, we understand why!). I'll definitely have to try that! Hope your day was great. Did you have any off to first-day-at-school? Mine are back now. Homework being done as I type. And so it begins.....<br />Enjoy the rest of your day and God Bless, ~Cynthia <><~ Cynthiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16842011317228991909noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6872292586147410575.post-15463583121411449012012-09-04T14:26:23.405-04:002012-09-04T14:26:23.405-04:00Wow I love all three of these Cynthia, and will ce...Wow I love all three of these Cynthia, and will certainly be trying them out. I think my favourite is the 3rd one, although for mine I might use the basic rhinestones as a bauble on the bottom of the ornament and on the top as a string. Just a thought. I'll be playing with this idea today! TFS. Penny Hanuszakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07996941785019332431noreply@blogger.com
