Default There's a reason it is $1!

Okay....I too was excited about all the stamping and scrapbooking stuff at Target. I got the mini stapler and colored staples and the foam mounting suares. I made several cards with the foam squares. They were standing up on top of my desk....a few days later EVERYTHING that I had mounted with the foam squares had fallen off! Back to my 3M foam mount tape!

Thanks for the head up. I bought two packages of these. Now I know not to use them on anything important!

Mine have worked great. I made a couple cards with them and one of them is still standing up on my stamp table and nothing has come off. I did use two of the bigger ones for my image.

I used the dimensionals for making spinner cards and they have worked great.

Didn't buy the foam mounting square, but did buy the double-stick tape in that section. It's not working so well (it's been more like repositional tape).

That said, the embellishments I bought have been great and the kids were using the glue sticks for some cards they were making and so far nothing has fallen off (crossing fingers because we know how kids love to add stuff).

I got colored staples there and the color is popping off! Love the little tiny charms, though.

Sometimes running your brayer over the attached stock helps "glue" the two pieces together.

Bellkee, thanks for the tip!

I'm almost embarrassed to say this, but....... :oops: I don't have a brayer yet. It's been on my list of things to buy, but then I get a new mini catty or thumb through the current IB&C and end up getting more stamps. Now I have yet another reason to get that brayer ASAP.
