Glueing down Organdy Ribbon
 

I just started and hate to ask an obvious thing that has probably been covered somewhere already, but I will!! What is a good adhesive technique for glueing down ribbon on the TOP of the card.
Also,what does CASE mean? Thank you so much!

What does CASE mean exactly?? Copy and something...something! Basically it means you copied it from someone/book/inspiration sheet and usually have tweaked it to make it your own.

As for the ribbon, I like a thin monoadhesive to hold the ribbon on. Also, glue dots has a new ribbon adhesive (lines) that work great! (I think it is a new product...new for me, anyway!)

HTH! :)

That's what I needed! Thanks very much!!!
 

Now I can finally go to bed and get some sleep. Well, a slight exaggeration. But thank you and good night!

Copy And Share Everything in my neck of the woods.

And I use glue dots for ribbons, buttons, tags, etc.

I use glue dots, I buy the mini ones.

In my circles CASE was always Copy And Steal Everything as in you do a perfect copy and don't change a thing. I think over the years it's changed, though!

As for glueing down organdy ribbon, I usually add adhesive on the back of my project and run the ribbon right around - no adhesive on the front, if that makes sense! Otherwise I use a Xyron sticker maker, although I haven't tried that with organdy, just regularly grosgrain, satins, etc.

A new updated definition of CASE:

Copy, Alter, Self-Embellish

Basically steal someones great idea and add your style...then give them credit by calling it a CASE of their work.

:)

A true CASE I was originally told is just what Sarah said...total COPY.

If I want organdy to lie flat, I use a spray adhesive. If I'm attaching a bow I use glue dots.

Red sticky tape (brand - duck) from Walmart.. it works the best for ribbon and is a great size for all ribbon, covers them all. Walmart will have this tape back in soon. They have been out of it for a while, sorry but forgot the full name of the sticky stuff.
