Crafty people, I need your help - fo'sho'

Ok, so FH's bday is in 2 days.

Since I am broke, I am making him a (really ghetto looking) scrapbook of stuff...

I have these awesome vellum quotes I'm trying to add to the pages, but the glue I have isn't letting it lie flat....

What glue do you use to glue vellum down?

Help my shizzle out.

Thanks.

Thaaaaaaaats what I need.

Re: Crafty people, I need your help - fo'sho'

they have clear ones.. I use black ones too.

i think it creates nice border to the quotes.

Thanks Shan! And thanks Jenise!

Re: Crafty people, I need your help - fo'sho'

really depends on what your looking for.. micheals and ac moore can be expensive, but if you have a coupon and they are having a sale, you can get good stuff.

i also go to wal*mart.. they have a craft dept. that i fins some nice stuff.

I buy regular Scotch double sided tape..you can find it at CVS or Eckerds...sometimes you can even come across it at the grocery store...it's worked like a charm for me so far

I have always used rubber cement for my scrapbooks...it dries clear, you can remove everything without it being damamged and you jsut need a dab to make it stick

Re: Crafty people, I need your help - fo'sho'

i use vellum tape for the vellum stuff so that it def wont show through (got it at target but they have it at craft stores)...its sticky on one side and has a peel off thing on the other. you gently rub it on the vellum and then peel it off and stick it to the paper.
