For this card, I used the print just as is. (Watch the slide for free downloads ofthese prints in dozens of different colours) I simply re-sized it to fit the front of my card so that I would have a border of plain card showing all around the print. I always try to use spray on adhesive to attach the print to the card because it does not cause the paper to wrinkle. I have also use a glue stick, which works quite well, depending on the brand. I hate to say it, but I don't like the UHU glue stick because it seems to stick to everything except the paper. When working with a glue stick, I always use a piece of stiff fabric as my work surface. I find this much better than working on a paper work surface such as newsprint. The same piece of fabric can be used over and over again. You will probably need to try it yourself to see what I am talking about.
