For the 1st trick about scoring I was taught "valleys become mountains and mountains turn into valleys" or score makes a valley in the paper so when you fold it turn the valley into a mountain. Easy to remember that way!

When I use double sided adhesive to attach card fronts, I don't completely remove the release paper so that the card front doesn't stick while I'm aligning it. Once I get where I want, I push down on the part where the release paper has been pulled off, then pull the rest of the release paper off.

2nd TIP: As MARY is THE Queen of “alternative choices” when it comes to FRUGAL SPENDING on craft items, I’m here to add that I’m using one of the several bitsy blue hexagonal handled brushes that I picked up at JoAnn’s, TIPPED IN TACKY GLUE, as my pick-n-place tool. I’m not big on glitzy embellishments, so it’s lasted me at least a year with no reapplying of the glue, but I do use it to re-place the insets in some die cuts, which, over time I’m sure, will deplete the stickiness faster. But, hey, Aleene’s is inexpensive!!

Another way I've heard to remember that scoring/folding procedure is that you fold over the "hill." I was already doing it when I heard that, so I'm not sure it's helpful for me personally, but it may help someone. I just know to do it, so don't really think about it. As for lining up card fronts to bases like you did in your MISTI, another possibility is to use your score board. That would probably be even more helpful for larger cards like A7, slimline, etc., that might not fit in the MISTI - depending on the size of your scoreboard, of course. Also, I would recommend lining the card front up with the folded edge of the card first. That way, if the card base is a little larger than the front (assuming the front panel is meant to cover the card base), you can trim off the bottom edge of the base that shows. If a bit of the folded edge is peeking out, there's not much you can do to get rid of it, without cutting your card in two. Hope that makes sense. Thank you for sharing these tips & tricks, Mary. Take care, & I hope you have an awesome day! :)

I got two reams of accent opaque. I really like but here is my tip. I take mine to a print shop to get them to cut and score it for me. I had one ream cut into card fronts. The other ream into card bases then score the bases. It's about 400 card bases. It cost about $33 to $37 where I live. I never have to worry about miscut card fronts. I know you have to decide if it's worth the time. It saves me tons of time which is worth the money

I find it more reliable when attaching a top panel to the base to always have the card in a landscape orientation. Lining up the top two corners perfectly will ensure the bottom two are good to go. Having the ‘shorter’ edges to the sides reduces the chance of going crooked.

Allie - I have the same exact problem. I'm wondering if the "problem" isn't on the manufacturing end; that they cut the paper going against the natural grain. Could be that they were training a "newbie" and a few got away from the person.
@marypolancodesigns2 жыл бұрын
Karen may be right; it might be the manufacturer. Next time you score try a couple things. 1. press very lightly when scoring; don't go too deep. and 2. if it still cracks, take a sand block and lightly sand away the excess paper that looks messy and cracked. That might help.

Something you might try, in adjunct to Mary’s ideas, is to score the card in the same place, but on BOTH sides. As I mentioned in another post, I probably don’t use as heavy a card stock as most (90# MAX, as I like to layer “dsp”s & die cuts) but I don’t have any issues with ragged folds. Mind you, I do NOT use expensive papers either! Only whatever H.L. sold within the last two years, some Recollections, Core’dinations, or Bazzille. Hope this is of some help.

Tombow Mono Multi dries tacky if it's left exposed, but if you use it wet to glue two surfaces together (e.g., attaching die cuts to a card front, or attaching a card front to a card base) the bond will be permanent (and very strong) once the glue dries.

Great tips! I have a question...which adhesive is better for adhering craft foam to paper: glue or double sided adhesive sheets (or tapes)?
@marypolancodesigns2 жыл бұрын
I'd have to officially do a test of it to be certain but from my experience, double Sided adhesive, but it also depends on the brand of that and glue. I would do some experimenting to find out if you can

I thought the magic mats were in place of the plastic mats, not in conjunction with them. Now I am confused 🤔

I'm sure you could find the right sandwich to use them in place; I'll have to give it a try for sure.

TIPS: I always score my card bases on BOTH sides. I find it makes it possible for the card to STAY closed, instead of springing open. Also, I think the heaviest card stock I use is, maybe, 90#? Since I like to use layers in my card crafting, the end result is lighter.

@@marypolancodesigns I was always told those are piano playing fingers! But perhaps, they are card making fingers!
