FTF Certificates, TB Tags, 'Utility' Cards.

Okay, after being in the caching game for a little while, and with us planning to put down some caches, I wondered if some of you who have created the TB mission tags, FTF Certs, Utility Cards (Team Cards), would share? I've never seen a FTF certificate, I would like to find a quicker way to make the mission tags, and would like to know how other teams make the 'team' cards. My creative 'muse' seems to have taken a hike lately- so any help would be appreciated. We can be contacted via email via our site http://tinyurl.com/4k7mk. Thanking you in advance :) <br>

I haven't worried about Utility cards and when it comes to TB's I have a couple but there down behind the fish tank so when me move house I can retrieve them and put them into circulation.

We have developed a bit of a FTF prize though. Team '80' kicked it off by making a trophy for one of his caches which I in turn won. With this in mind Mix and I went about making FTF medal for a couple of caches. One that comes to mind is Buckleys which has a Bronze medal within with a Blue sash - I have two others here for 2nd and 3rd to find.

For cards I would suggest laminating being a definate, use cardboard, thin plastic or a photo for the insert. I don't think there is any real format. Just Name, date, destination/s and perhaps an Email address or your team name.

I make my FTF cards from Celcast magnetic cards, available from Big W.

There are also magnetic cards in my Wombat 3 cache for any visitor to my cache.

How do you place a Failed to Find (FTF) card in a cache?
