That's one of my realized fears. I was taught to put the back information on a piece of paper ~ often it is color coordinated to the front. I computer print a sheet or two of the back panel with title, etc., then sig. stamp them and set aside the ones I haven't messed up yet. Then, having got my steady hand going, I finish the fronts, and that usually involves some boo-boos, too. The last step is to stick the good back panels on the best cards, and then use as many of the messed up ones as I can stand to share, and pitch the rest. Finally, I number them based on the number of survivors, and usually keep the worst one as my copy. So how many do I make? I start with two sheets of 12 x 12 card stock, and it goes down from there.

What do you do when the front of the LTC is okay, but you goof up on the back?

Simple. Just send the front.

I like to use sticky lables. I have goofy handwriting that is had to read and I know I would mess them up.

I have a very high percentage of failures on the front, so I like your idea of papering over a mistake on the back.

As you can see, the back is not too important to anyone. I am happy if I can read an AQ number.

Gosh, I haven’t a clue. I’ve never goofed up!
:D

Riiiggghht! Seriously, I always make about 3 or 4 extra so when (not if) I goof up I have a spare. Though I suppose if I go through them I’d glue a piece of paper on the back for a do over.

I must admit I do like the idea of just sending the front! Ha

Goof up? So what. It adds to the handmade charm.

I almost always decorate the backs of my cards now, so it's kind of a big deal for me if I mess one up. But I really hate it when the ink on the back bleeds through to the front, which I've seen on a few cards; I usually make the back as a separate piece of paper so the ink won't bleed through, and then glue the front and back together when they're all done.
