    double sided tape

    Hi Everyone

    I wonder if you can help I bought some double sided tape and it keeps falling of i.e ribbons stick at first then peel away and embelishments pop off so not very good

    What does everyone use? Any recommendations?

    Thank you x

    I generally use my ATG gun for almost everything cardmaking, but for ribbons around a cm wide or less I have thin double sided tape if needed that has held well, or I simply tie it around a piece of paper/card where the back is concealed and the ribbon held in place with normal tape as adhesive is noticeable under satin ribbon and other shear ribbons and I don't like being able to see it. And sometimes a mini glue dot has been used here and there.

    If you want something that really sticks i'd recommend the red ultra high adhesion DST, it's super sticky!

    I like the Stix2 DST magic tape. Stix2 also do a red high tack version too.

    I agree with the Red Liner/Wonder Tape advice.
    You can also use glue dots.

    Fabric glue or Diamond Glaze works well too.
    Diamond Glaze is also great for those heavier embellishments too.
