Cricut images and adhesive.....

[Beaglelover]

I have been looking at the Cricut forever. My question is what do you use for adhesive for those beautiful sayings on your 12x12 pages?? They are so large!

As silly as it sounds, that is one reason I have never purchased one!

The easiest adhesive for me is to run my image/word through my zyron.
However , I dont like the excess adhesive that sometimes appears between the letters or in the holes of the "B" "O" "P" etc. If the images/words are thick enough you can just use any other adhesive that you currently use.
Don't let this stop you from getting the bug, you will love it.
Hope this helps, Beth

I use a product I get at my LSS called Punch glue...It comes in a very ultra-fine tipped squeeze bottle and I just apply to the area and glue it down...Ask about it at you local LSS...

The Xyron is the easiest to use. Before you remove the top film, go around all the edges with an fine tipped embossing tool. It takes a few extra minutes, but it is worth it because you get very little excess glue.

Don't let a little adhesive stop you from getting a Cricut. It is an awesome machine. I advise you to go ahead and get the Expression, you will want it eventually. Plan on adding Design Studio when you can, it makes working with the machine much easier and even more versatile.
