While I have had no work this week, I have been making quite a lot of cards. I have made quite a lot of wire 'embellishments' and cannot think of a way to stick them onto the cards without the glue being seen. Any ideas anyone?

A magnet glued on the other side?... Roll Eyes... getting your cards has not discouraged you from making more, then...?

Easy! Buy one of those refrigerator magnets, paste it to the inside of the card, and glue another piece of card over the magnet... Smile

Seriously, tiny spots of glue applied to the side of the wire which will touch the card. Then put the card inside a heavy book, with more books on top. The wire will adhere, but no glue ought to show...use a very fine artist's brush for the glue, apply very carefully & sparingly to the merest surface of the wire.

That's better! Thanks Ritz Big Grin I think I will have to buy some stronger glue. I only have PVA, think I need some UHU or something like that.

Epoxy resin just might be a touch over top, I suppose... Roll Eyes
