DOD HOW I GOOFED

From: Dee --- I've done this so many times it's not even funny. Get a card almost finished and some how manage to swipe my pinky finger on something and then get it on the background where I didn't want it. Then I try to cover that up and it just gets worse and worse. FIXED IT: Finally I usually end up cutting out the image and layering it, but that isn't the look I wanted. Oh well.

From: Mickey Jo ---Maybe your work area is too cluttered. SPREAD out, have a clear area to stamp in. Then when you stamp you're less likely to goof. I at least make my biggest mistakes when something is in my way. Even though I thought I had the area cleared. Then all of a sudden I didn't move the stamp pad too far away and got the corner of the card in it. And usually it is when I am getting ready to send it off and put my trademark on the back. So here I have a beautiful card that is ruined.

FIXED IT: What do I do? I send it. Sometimes I place another image over my goof up, or I might even use a sticker to cover the smudge. grin. Then no one knows I goofed
