So that’s a rubber stamper. It’s always a little bit frustrating when you glue down your piece of paper and you decide you want to move it and you realized you got it crooked and you can’t pull it off. So I’ve read on one at the message on some website somewhere that said that you could use floss to take off photos from your old scrap of pages. So, I did try it on my photos and it worked great. So I was wondering if it would do the same thing on different types of adhesive and papers.
So I’ve got a little piece of paper here and I’ve got some designer paper. And we’re just going to use some tombow stamp mono adhesive, you can put that on the bottom. Let’s say that we’ve messed up a little bit and it’s crooked and we know that it has just happened with the last one, your winter card. So we’ll take some floss. This is my version of “Myth Busters”, we’ll call it Stampbusters. We’re going to put these tips to the test. We’re going to slide it under our designer paper, and I think designer paper is the worst one to try to pull up.
Now, you have the waxed floss, maybe that helps a little bit. Yes, it’s working. It’s kind of pulling it through. Look at that. It worked. Very minimal paper damage. You could still—look, very little. That worked really well and designer papers are hard to get up so I could now reposition it to where I want it and put some more glue on it.
Okay now, I’m going to try the tombow multi. Now this is heavy duty stuff so this is an adhesive card stock glued to the craft, and let’s see if it gets this up. The same piece of floss. We’ll try and pull both ends through. Okay. That doesn’t work. That definitely doesn’t get off the tombow glue. Maybe it’s only good for adhesive like the tape adhesive. That didn’t work.
Now, this was a card that I did last year. So let me see—after the tape had been down there for a year, will it pop things off pretty easy. Let’s start with—let me get a dimensional here. Yep, that works. I could have done that though. Let’s try the little strip of designer paper in the card stock. Look at that. Wow! It comes right up. It worked. How about that? So I guess flossing really does work to get your card stock out and photos off your pages. It just doesn’t work with white glue but that’s okay, so now we know. If you have anything else you want me to test out and try for the Stampbusters’ episode, then just shoot me an email. See you next time.
