SUSIE Q-TIP: Sometimes you need a card for a certain occasion at the last minute, but don't have one on-hand to accomodate that particular instance. Here's an idea that may or may not work: See if you have a card already made that you could just swap the sentiments out with by gently pulling off that piece of the artwork and replacing it with another sentiment more fitting to the occasion. It worked for me recently and was not even noticeable. It also didn't work for me recently and I don't want to talk about it.

ReplyDelete"It also didn't work for me recently and I don't want to talk about it."
ReplyDeleteThis made me
a) laugh out loud!
b) go tell my husband about it, and made him laugh out loud.
c) feel better about my own "don't want to talk about" cards (of which there have been many lately).
Thanks for the lift & the laugh!
LOL, about your tip - I just went thru my cards yesterday and had one in my hand that I was thinking about pulling the sentiment off but I feared it would have been disatrous. I just kept digging till I found one that worked.
