Attaching fonts to your LO

Mar '10 Butterflyqueen71

So, what is the best way to glue your cut out fonts to you your LO? I'm finding that some of the letters come out really skinny. I use the liquid glue stick, the one with the skinny tip at one end and the wide tip at the other. But I find that this can be messy. I'm not sure what is out there for gluing tiny things.

Help?

You could try the 2 way Zip glue pen.
I run my paper through the Xyron machine before I cut with the Cricut.

After I cut my letters, I run them through my Xron X.

Yes, I agree, I use the Zig pen. It is here in the superstore. I don't know how to link the pictures.

I use many of the above methods. I like the Xyron sticker maker, the quickie glue pen.
For those tiny pieces I like to use the blue scotch tape that is repositional. I will line up my letters then pick them up with a strip of this tape add glue with the gluickie glue pen and then position them on my page.
It is kinda 6's to me the sticker maker and tweezers or the tape method and apply glue to each letter. It's all time consuming but when we love those little letters and die cuts you have to figure out what works best for you.

The best way is the Xyron sticker maker. Just be sure to rub the piece before removing the protector so the glue doesn't go everywhere.

I agree that xyron is the easiest and best way to attach letters once die cut!

another vote for the xyron. I have a larger one that I use for all the intricate cut shapes too.
