Here's what you'll need:



 Step 1: Experiment with placement, note card colors, etc. 

 Step 2: After you choose everything you like, run a stripe of glue onto card (not swatch-it will make a fuzzy mess).  Lay bottom edge of swatch on glue and press lightly to bond.

 Step 3: Run a stripe of glue along card will top edge of swatch will lay.  Press along top edge of swatch to bond it to the card.

Step 4: Let front of card dry completely.

 Step 5: Flip card over and if you have overhang, glue sides to back of card.

 Step 6: Snip tails with scissors or weave them in if you prefer.
