Default Faux Diamonds-How to Adhere

I just tried the Faux Diamond Dust technique - LOVE the look, but once I stuck my card piece on top of the background, it fell off!! Is there a special adhesive that works best? Help please! TIA.

How about glue dots or even some dimensionals? Those dimensionals are super sticky.

Did you diamond dust the entire card or just a portion? Another option to get the card to stick is to use "sticky strip" if you do not want a raised image for your card. IMO.

I had better luck with the dimensionals than I did the mini glue dots or sticky strip. That faux diamond dust is very pretty but really tough when it comes to adhering anything to it.
