How do you attach your "bug" fonts??
Boy what would we do with out SCS? Any time I have a question I just come here, and get all of the help I need. I did some scrapbooking the other night and made my title out of the "Olivia" and had heck of a time attaching the small letters, now I am doing one with "your not the boss of me", I was just wondering how you smart women are doing it??
I have used my Xyron X for that also but I have problems with the adhesive sticking out from the edges of the letters. If I could solve that problem the X would be a great solution. Anyone figured out how to fix this?

I trace the letters, before I remove the protective plastic, with a stylus. Removes just about all of it, anything that remains, a little rub with the adhesive eraser and it's taken care of.
You could always run your paper through the xyron first, before cutting. Then just use tweezers or something to lift it off the backing and stick it right down where you want it.

I have never had good luck with those glue pens, they work the first time and then when I go to use them again, they are dired up, and I made sure the lid was on good the second time too.:(
Anyway. I tried the xyron, and it worked great, I knew you smart gals would help me out. The tip about running the stylus around first worked fantastic too!

This is what I do for BOTH my bugs (Cricut and Cuttlebug) and it works like a DREAM! Way easier than running the tiny pieces through the Xyron individually.
