9 Things You Can Do With: A Scoring Board

If you don't yet own a scoring board, and wonder why these are a must have tool for card makers as well as scrapbookers, look no further. If you own one, but seem to only dust it off to score your cards, please read on. Our designers are here to show you what a score board can really do.
