Default Question-making your own envies

I ordered the Kreat-A Lope a couple days ago and wanted to see what those of you who make your own envelopes use for the adhesive. I was thinking the Greeting Glue? Is there something else?

Also, is the Kreate-A-Lope easy to use? I am challenged when it comes to something things like that. I can't even figure out how to fold a library card envelope! :eek

Thanks!
Diane

I always use sticky strip when making my own envelopes. That is the one adhesive I KNOW won't come apart in the mail :p

I think the Krate a lope is easy to use. I use permanent double stick tape and it seems to work fine.

I use the double sided tape also....have the greeting glue but only use that on the flap that I lick...sometimes I tape that down too if the card if fat....just to be sure it stays together... I never used that set to make them...I use my Anna Griffin templates and love them to pieces....

I love making the matching liners....they really sell the card to me.
