Wednesday with Xyron-Gatefold Card

Hello Crafty Friends & Followers!

I wanted to share a gatefold card I made using the Xyron Tape Runner.




This card is special because I made it for my recently engaged daughter to give to each of her bridesmaids to be. It is her unique way of asking them if they will be in her bridal party.

Take a look:




I trusted the Xyron adhesive to adhere the cardstock pieces because their adhesive is high quality and has never failed me. I often use the 1.5 or 2.5 Create A Sticker Machines but I recently purchased the tape runner to give it a try & I have to say as with the other Xyron adhesives I own, I am very pleased.

There is something to be said for tried & true! Xyron has been around in the craft industry for quite a while and I have to say the Xyron quality keeps me crafting with confidence because I know my pieces will stick & stay!

Thanks for stopping in today.

    Wow Sonia..this card is just stunning. I love the color combo. The black and white paper is gorgeous. I love the way you finished it off with the flower embellishment up on the top. So elegant! Congrats to your daughter on her engagement. I am sure her bridesmaids were totally wowed with the beautiful card. You are so talented in so many different areas. Have you ever considered advertising to do invites for wedding, showers, etc.????

    Definitely an elegant card. Congratulations on your daughter's engagement! I love my xyron create-a-sticker machines but I did not know they made a tape runner. I have been using an AVG gun and really like the control you have and a lot of adhesive is on each roll, so you can use it for a long time. Thanks for the tip!
