"I think I'm going to add a little one more touch to this collage. This is gummed tape. The back is similar to like a postage stamp. It's kind of sticky, but if you lick it, or dab it with a piece of water, you know a sponge, it sticks to any surface, and you can cut any length or just tear it. You can get it at any art store, art supply store. So, I think, I might just actually tear a little piece; kind of give it a rustic look. So, I'm just going to make this simple fold. And make a simple tear; think about where my placement. Think I might just put it right in the center of this, because this is not really to be read. It's just kind of an artistic piece. So, I'm just going to lick, actually, this is a little more centered. Let's give it a good lick. Let's press it right onto it, make it flat, and let me give this to my friend, Matt, today. So, I'm just going to write his name on it. Ah, think this should be close to done."
