Crafty Ladies a question for you

What is the best thing to attach scrapbook paper to wood? I finally decided how I want to do the letter but I dont want them to bubble.

I just used double sided tape. I didn't want to risk ruining the paper by using anything else. It hasn't shown any signs of coming undone yet (I did them at 18 weeks) but it will be easy to fix if it does.

I used matte modge podge. I used a coat to attach it to the wood and a coat on top. I made wooden letters over 2 years ago for my dd and they still look great.

I 2nd the modge podge suggestion!

Mod podge is great.

Put a layer in-between the paper and wood. Just make sure you use something to kinda roll out any bubbles or wrinkles before it dries...your fingers or a brayer works great. Then do another layer on top of the paper to seal it.

I've done it many time in my projects and it always looks great and lasts.

I almost used modge podge, but ended up going with super 77 multipurpose adhesive by 3M. I used wooden letters I bought at Michaels and the letters turned out amazing. I love them.

Once I had them up, I decided to change the paper on one of them, I put it under water and was able to remove the paper. You should be able to do that with modge podge as well if you decide to change them.

I also love the matte modge podge. You can buy it at most craft stores or even online like I do since it's cheaper.
