My new GENIUS idea!! ~ Scented Cards??

[cjbapp]

Ok...if this has been done...tell me where to buy the stuff...otherwise...

How cool would it be to open a Christmas Card and smell Pine and Cranberries?? (And I don't even celebrate...haha) Or how about a fall card and smell Cinnamon and Apples?? Maybe a flowery card and smell Hydrangeas?? Or a camping card and smell the campfire?? A baby card and smell Johnson's baby wash???

This has been bugging me ALL DAY...either we need scented adhesives to use with any papers, etc...or I was thinking I could do scented oils and just dab a teeny bit between layers on a card??

I still think scented adhesives would go over great...can you imagine the Fall rush on Pumpkin Spice Scotch Gold Adhesive Refills??? :rolleyes:

Although I've never tried it, there is the scratch and sniff technique using kool-aid (?). I've also seen (smelled rather) scented embossing powder. Scented adhesive would be interesting though!

You could try this website. They make scents for cards. I don't know about the ones you've thought of but if you looking, you could try here.

Well I have been beaten to it. :(

These must just be scented oils?? I think I am going to try making myself one...or two...Someone is making a killing on relabeling them for cards...

So what should a sheep smell like?? Haha!

I've smelled sheep...it's not pretty. ;)

[cjbapp]

Wow...they make it so easy though....all those yummy smells...and pretty much everything I would ever want!

Ladies.....Click on the Resources link at the top of this page and do a search for scented cards. You will find the tutorial for a card. On this site it's called Scratch and Sniff. I've also seen it called Scratch and Sniff on the internet and in card making books/magazines.

They smell really yummy! I have 4 or 5 of them and hardly use them though, I always forget about them! (Card Scents that is, not sheep:p)

[iu97alum]

Don't forget you can use scented embossing powder too!!

[jaymerz]

I have used them but when my cards got to the destination they didn't smell any more. They do smell really yummy though

[kat2800]

Do you just put some of the oil on the card or the adhesive?

OP: You don't have to think too hard to come up with the scent I was afraid you were going to mention associated with babies!!

I wonder if a room spray would work. I'm going to have to try this! Thanks for the idea.
