Need inspiration/help with polyshrink pin

[AZMommy]

What do you use to adhere polyshrink pieces together? How about to attach the pin to the back?

I'm trying to adapt a pin my demo (now upline) made for me at a workshop. She's at leadership right now...or I'd just ask her.

She used polyshrink and the Frosty set. Stamped the snowflakes onto white poly rectangle, and Frosty onto a smaller clear poly rectangle. The Frosty piece is then glued onto the snowflakes piece - very cute pin. I'm trying to figure out what adhesive it is. It must dry pretty clear...I don't think you can really see it through the clear polyshrink.

I'd like to make something similar at my Valentine stamp camp next weekend. The heart from Sketch It is a perfect size to shrink down for the main image on the clear poly. I thought we could use Sharpies or colored pencils to draw x's and o's or use other, smaller heart stamps for white poly background. Suggestions?

Thanks for your help.

Could be Crystal Effects. CE also gives your PolyShrink a nice glossy finish.

Could be E6000.

lakegrandma - I'm pretty sure it was a non-su product, so I don't think that's it. But I can give that a try since I have some of that.

rubadubdub - E6000? That sounds a little familiar. Where do I find this?

I use E6000 to adhere my pin fasteners to things I make. You can find it at just about any craft store and/or home store. I wouldn't be surprised if you couldn't find it at office supply stores.

One thing I'm curious to try is Tacky Tape to fasten findings... that stuff holds EVERYTHING! It's a wonder!
