Nothing makes me crazier than crooked letters

I wanted to share a quick little scrapbooking tip with you.  I hate crooked sticker letters so this is how I keep them straight.


Line up you stickers on the edge of your ruler

Place the letters where you want them to be on your layout

Tip the ruler and press down on the tops of the stickers to hold them in place when you remove the ruler

Press down the bottom edges of the stickers and you are done . . .
nice and straight.

      What kind of ruler are you using? Looks like a great idea that I will have to use. I'm fairly new to scrapbooking.
