2. Use the Glue Arts Glue Glider Pro and the U-Cut it foam to attach your papers and pictures to all the pages.
3. Use the included stickers to embellish the pages.
4. Use the glitter glue to add extra sparkle to the papers and stickers.
5. For the album, use Glue Arts Extreme Adhesive Squares to attach papers and small embellishments to the album front and use the Glue Gun to attach heavier chipboard die-cuts. Re-cover the album with the plastic sleeve to keep it from getting dusty.
HINT: You can add dimension with the stickers by adding the U-Cut it foam to the back of the stickers. Just attach pieces of the foam to the back of the sticker you want to lift off the page and leave the paper backing on the side of the foam still facing up.
