Default How to adhere Dew Drops

I oredered some Dew Drops and am ready to use them?

What is the best way to adhere them to cardstock?


Thanks
Sharon

Sharon, you can use Mini Glue Dots, or something like Diamond Glaze/SU! Crystal Effects/3D Crystal Lacquer, etc.--any of the clear dimensional adhesive/glazes work well for these.

Thanks so much!

I think I'll get some mini glue dots as I am pretty spastic when it comes to using "just of drop" of anything!

I've been using Crystal Effects but I agree with the others who've said "just a drop". I find that it's hard to get just the right amount and not have it ooze out when the dew drop is put on top. Also, I find it a bit tough to get them lined up just right. I have a couple rough looking spots on one of my first cards - almost worth testing the gluing process on a piece of cardstock and not on a finished (or nearly finished) card.

Mono multi here.
It's a bit easier to control than the CE, and it dries perfectly clear, if you get a smudge, you can remove it with the SU glue remover (which looks like and eraser and I *heart* it cuz it works) and it'll leave no mark behind! {{ask me how I know}}

I used The Ulimate and it worked great. And because it's thick, it's easy to control how much you put on (I used a toothpick). If you happen to get a little too much, it dries clear.

I only tried it once, I used ZipDry and boy did I get too much.

I can see putting the toothpick into the glue and applying a *SMALL* dab to the back of the Dew Drop.....

I tried a mini glue dot on a clear...it showed and kinda wiggled. I'll go back to Suze Glue or Tombow green top.

Scotch quick dry or whatever it is called. It is perfect in that if there is a wee bit too much glue it dries clear. I believe this product is pretty much the same as the mono multi. I also use a toothpick to apply the glue to the spot on the card to which I want to adhere the drop and tweezers to place the drop on the card. Believe me, those suckers will not be coming off.
I do not like any drops/crystals, etc that have that self adhesive glue dots on them in that it is too easy to touch the adhesive and the item loses it tackiness and can come off.
