Great idea Rachel! Do you know how many times I misplace my popup dots and get so mad. Never thought of this idea. tfs
ReplyDeleteThis is such a great idea, Rachel. Pop dots always seem to go missing here, too (or I seem to use way too many!).
ReplyDeleteThis is a great idea - it would probably work better than real pop dots on larger items.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing!
Great idea! I like the fact that you can make it as thick as you want it! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea....and who doesn't have scrap paper sitting around? :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a great tip! I would have never thought to use cardstock!
ReplyDeleteGreat idea... I seem to go through a lot of pop dots...so many that I just bought myself a huge roll of that 3M tape. But sometimes, I find myself stacking it to get it higher.. This is a great idea to make your own height! and with the folds, you could even make it "springy"..you know like a bobble-head... hmm......that'd be cute under a little character (animal) or something.... I feel inspiration sneaking in.
ReplyDeleteWonderful money saving tip! Awesome idea! Thanks so much for sharing!!!
ReplyDeleteRachel, this is so great!!!!
ReplyDeleteNot only we can save money, but also you can make them the same color of the background.
Thanks for the awesome idea!
Great idea Rachel, and a perfect use for all those scraps!
