Default How do they know to 'Scratch & Sniff'?

I am trying to come up with a scratch & sniff card for my stamp camp. I am using the Perfect Party set, with the ice cream cone.
Should I include a tag with 'scratch & sniff' on it? Or just write it on the layers?
In the gallery, I didn't see anyone else add this, so how do they know to Scratch & Sniff?
:?

HI, you use kool aid for the scratch and sniff. You just sprinkle a little of the dry kool aid powder, no sugar kind, on embossing powder of same color, and heat a little, then when you scratch it you smell the kool aide flavor.

It appears she knows how to do it; she is wondering how others know to actually scratch it and sniff it. In other words, why would the recipient think to scratch and sniff it?

I always wondered the same thing. I'd probably just put a note inside the card telling them it was so. I wonder if perhaps it smells some even without scratching...that would encourage it. This is yet another technique I know how to do but haven't done yet.

I sent a scratch-n-sniff card to my 3 year old niece and put in tiny letters right below it "scratch-n-sniff" in a coordinating color so my SIL would know about it. My niece loved it! She says "strawberries!"

Thanks everyone! I like the idea of including it in the inside of the card, as I don't want my handwriting on the front.

Michelle - thanks for the laugh! :lol: Reminded me of my DH!!
