I don't feel that I explain things very well so I hope this makes sense.

I made a pocket page to hold park maps and tickets. I used a 12 X12 CM page, Bazzill cardstock, some printed paper (I forgot the brand) and CM adhesive (Tape Runner). The cardstock is staying adhered to the CM page but one side of the printed paper just won't stay adhered to the cardstock. The other side is just fine. I've added more adhesive and each time it still pops up. I've never had this happen before and can't figure out what I've done wrong.

I put the CM tool on the side where it keeps popping up so you can get an idea of what I mean. Do you think it's just too heavy on that side? Maybe I need a different adhesive?



Thanks!

Thanks!

I have had trouble recently with my CM tape runner adhering paper to the page. I started using my photo tape for large items.
 
Thanks! I'll have to call and get some from my CM consultant.

It's just so weird that it just started.
 
I just discovered Scor-Tape. It's double-sided tape that sticks like nobody's usiness. You can buy it in different widths (1/8", 1/4", 1/2" and up.) It's truly a gift from the scrapbook heavens.

Thanks! I'll look for that too. Did you find at a craft store (i.e, Michaels, Hobby Lobby, JoAnns)?

I bought it on Ebay. You can also find it at Amazon. I haven't checked a real store yet.

Warning, though. It sticks immediately. There's almost no margin for error. I learned that the hard way!

I buy it from ebay too and it STICKS! by accident I dropped the piece of paper that I put tape on and I had to restart because I was not able to remove it without ripping it.
 
Thanks everyone! I have some other crafts, shadow boxes mainly, that need I need some extra sticky tape for too. Sounds like Scor-tape would be great for those too!!
