Help! Want to adhere item but be able to remove later
Hi ladies! I'm a card maker and am working on a Christmas card idea making and wanting to make a card with an "ornament" on the front that would stick well enough to go through the mail and not fall off - but then be able to come off the card and be used as a tree ornament.
Is this possible and what product would I use to do this?
Thanks for your help!

I have a restickable adhesive glue stick from 3M. I use it when putting paper dolls on cards so the kids can take them off to play. The adhesive remains on whatever side you lay the glue down.
Hermafix Dotto......it holds well enough and then you can take it off when you want and the adhesive just rubs off with your finger. (Just to clarify....I have not purchased any in awhile now as I don't use it much anymore, but that was how it worked for me and would work for you......as long as it hasn't changed in the last year or two! :>)
Have you thought of maybe working the ornament into your card design where you can insert the ornament into a shallow pocket and the person can remove and hang on their tree? This way you can be assured the person would be able to remove without any damage to the ornament piece and you don't have to worry about what type of adhesive.
