THE GLUE DOTS are great and so is permanent double sided tape...be careful with glue and all that bc it can bubble and even after you glue it the paper can shift

You should buy the Scrapbooking Tape Runner. This will be the fastest way. maybe if you know someone with one you can borrow and just buy the tape to refill it.

I used double stick tape and the scrapbook tape runner thing. Some of the glue dots are a little thick, if you go that way just make sure they are the thin ones.

Good luck!

I didnt do my wedding invites, but for shower invites i used glue lines

i streatched them across each edge and one in the middle

glue dots were the best but also tricky if you didn't land them correctly. I used half glue dots then rubber cement which also can stink because it may slide so you have to take your time.

the band that went around the invite I used the tape runner that was perm. but didn't really work too well so it was good enough to secure and restick but didn't hold but i liked that so people can open the seal then shut it.

oh well- Kerry I think the tape thing from cardsandpockets.com works the best. I think it supposedly makes it more flush

yea... i had posted this early this afternoon and then there was another post about it when i got home and i wanted to see what people told me and thank them, unfortunately it bumps the thread too so it looks like you want more answers you know?

but thanks! we wound up talking to a few different ladies and they suggested this acid free professional scrap book glue stick so we grabbed 2 of those
we'll see how that works.

FH put the sample together last night and it worked/looked great. But we'll prob have to go and buy a few more of the glue sticks which is fine b/c they are only $2 a pop
