cross stitch cards

[rachelliott]

Sorry if this has been answered before. I want to make some cards from my sewing, using window greeting cards but I can't seem to get them to stay sealed- does anyone know what's best to use- glue? I've tried doubled sided tape and pressing them under books but it doesn't seem to work. Thanks in advance

I think there is a type of extra-sticky double-sided tape, I think I've sen it at Debbie Cripps's site, perhaps that would work?

Thanks Mabel, will have a look

I use a glue gun for my cards. If it's good enough stuff to hold my shoes together, it's good enough for cards

haha Angel.
I agree though... a glue gun wouldn't be a bad idea...

Youcan get little ones for next to nothing from stationary and craft stores. The glue is very strong and doesn't dissolve in water so it's brilliant for a lot of things.

My little one was like $3-5 ..and it came with 3 glue sticks..then the packages to get more I think wre only $1.. it's been a great investment!

I use glue guns on a lot of my crafts including my stitching.

Similar here.My gluegun was £5 and came with three sticks, the refil packs of about 10 are onlya couple of pounds.

Is it like this one? It seems amazingly good value, but I'd like to know if anyone is familiar with this brand.

That looks almost identical to mine...
