Can someone give me some advice on how to attach wire words to card fronts. I am struggling with my first purchase of words and it may be the last time I make this purchase unless one you wonderful people can help me out.

TIA,
Angela

You could use brads, even glue dots. This pic doesn't have any words on it but gives you an idea of how to attach wire. WIRED BEES HTH

You can also hand-stitch them down with clear thread, or use a piece of fine wire in a matching color and poke an end thru on either side of the piece you're attaching, then twist on the backside of your work.

Also, if you have a steady hand, Crystal Effects will hold it tight. You just need to give it time to dry.
