Paper craft arts, an intricate and creative art form, relies not only on the artist's skill and creativity but also on the materials used. Among the most crucial materials in any paper craft project is adhesive. Choosing the right adhesive can make or break your project, influencing both the process and the final result.

Adhesives are the unsung heroes of this paper craft artistry, working behind the scenes to hold our creations together. The right adhesive ensures that our project is sturdy, looks clean, and withstands the test of time. Using the wrong adhesive, on the other hand, can lead to a fragile structure, visible glue marks, or uneven embellishment placement.

In this paper art community we are sticklers for our Double Sided Foam Adhesive...did you see what I did there with 'stickler'? Seriously though...Foam Adhesive is our best friend when we are assembling the layers of paper, die cuts, tickets, frames, florals, and foliage. Foam Adhesive is the game changer for crafting beautiful works of art within our layers of paper.

This is why I am such a huge proponent of Foam Adhesive. Depending on the project in the making, white or black, could be the stock of adhesive that we reach for all the time and it's important that we always have on hand.

In most all the projects shared on this blog or YouTube or in the classroom, Foam Adhesive is must have for creating the lift and dimension needed that gives our paper artistry the look it needs. Stunning creativity takes time and practice. But it also requires the right tools. The right adhesive.

So then, to answer the question for our next project: what will I need? You will almost always and forever need Foam Adhesive Rolls to create the layers of beautiful paper artistry time and again.
