    Sorry to gate crash your thread girls, but I need a bit of help,

    Currently getting to grips with making my wedding invites and I've ran out of card blanks, but have some pieces of A4 hammered card.

    I've cut it down to the right size A6 but how the heck do I get a perfect crease without the use of any scoring type boards? I've folded one but it looks pants

    I don't use a scoring board - I have one but can never be bothered to go upstairs to get it so I measure where I want to fold it - line the marks up with a ruler and then put it on the foamy side of a mouse mat and run an embossing tool along the edge to get a crease - HTH
    Officially a non-smoker but still rounder than recommended :p
