How To Adhere Intricate Paper, Die-Cuts & Vellum the Savvy Way
How To Adhere Intricate Paper, Die-Cuts & Vellum the Savvy Way
In today’s video tutorial, I’m sharing my hands-down favorite way to adhere intricate paper, die-cuts and vellum. While it’s certainly not the only way, it is the quickest and easiest method I’ve ever used- and also the most cost-effective. If you’ve ever shied away from an intricate die or our laser-cut cards or paper because it’d be too fussy to handle, enjoy this fuss-free method with several savvy tips to save you money and aggravation.

Must-Have Basics
This method uses only three inexpensive items, all of which multi-task… meaning you gain even greater value from having them in your craft stash.
Multipurpose Glue: This is my go-to adhesive that I use on virtually every project. It gives you a little wiggle room to position items and then turns permanent. This is not your old-fashioned school glue; it’s a high-tech paper-crafter’s delight! It won’t warp your paper, sticks in all climates and a little goes a long way. It’s both removable AND permanent … and is only $4/bottle!
Stamping Sponges: A must-have for this technique and a fun, inexpensive, easy-to-use coloring tool. Follow my cutting suggestion in the video and each wedge will only cost you 17 pennies and can be used 8-10 times!
Silicone Craft Sheet: Nothing sticks to this wonder-tool so use it for creating 3D embellishments, mixing ink into embossing paste, various coloring techniques, mirror stamping and of course gluing intricate pieces. It’s also heat-resistant and great for all things messy. At only 6″ x 6″ it takes up very little real estate on your work area.

Enjoyed your video and I have the mat and sponges so I want to try this . The big tip for me was cutting the edge off the sponge when it gets wonky ! Great tip !
I’m delighted you’re going to try it, Sonny! Hope it works as well for you as it does me 🙂
