I am looking for 3mm clear self-adhesive rhinestones for eyes on the SU bird punch. I bought some but I think they are meant to line up together in a line and they are all connected with visible adhesive between them and when I cut them apart, I can see the adhesive.
I see Gina K. has them. Does anyone know if they are individually separated or does the adhesive connect to other rhinestones in the package? Also, I know PTI has ones in an asst. size package by Kaisercrafts which work (without visible adhesive) but I would rather get more of only one size instead of an assortment.
I have several different brands of rhinestones and all of them have the adhesive between the stones so they are "connected". I use an exacto knife to cut between the stones, and then lift the rhinestone (with the adhesive) to place on my card.
That is what I do too. In the jewelry making section of Michael's they have some gorgeous rhinestones individually glued. They are not cheap ($2.99 a pack) but they are the aurora borealis kind that shine really bright.
SU has new rhinestones that are three different sizes (5mm, 3mm, and 2mm). I just demo'ed them at a workshop and put the 2mm as the eye on the SU bird.

Any ideas or suggestions are much appreciated.

Cindy,
Ours are on a line of adhesive as well, however, I use cutterbee scissors and cut them right up against the rhinestone so you can't see they adhesive. Try that with the SU ones first.
Hugs,
Gina K.

There are also 3mm rhinestones in the Ribbon Department (Bridal) at Michael's - Truthfully they lifted off the adhesive so I just dip them into a tiny bit of glossy accents and that works for me. HTH.
