Rick Who?

Rick Rack...how did it get it's name? Who was Rick? What is his association with a rack? What kind of rack is it? What is the best way to attach it to a card? These are my ponderables this evening. Just ask my husband...I got a million of them! Oh if he only had a nickle for every time I have turned to him and said, "Have you ever wondered...."

    I agree how do you add rick rack, glue shows through and tape is straight.. Love the card and the image. Great colors. Thanks for joining us at Aud Sentiments for our ATG challenge.
