![]() ![]() ![]() I've used cut pieces of cardboard packaging to use in place of foam tape when I want dimension as well. I also die cut tags and shapes from old cereal boxes, rather than buy chipboard. That's one reason I never buy acetate sheets for stamp storage or shaker cards, but recycle clear plastic packaging instead. Good reminder about the ecological impact of our supplies. If the object is a sheet of paper or cardboard, it would be best to lay it on a flat surface. Apply the roller slowly and carefully if the surface is too thin or sensitive. However, I would bet it crumbles into dust that will be around for the next century. Make sure that the surface where you’ll use the Double-Sided Adhesive Roller is not too thin. I have some really old cards with foam tape on them, and the foam does crumble into dust at some point. Its designed for strong applications that need extreme bonding. You do have a point about the foam tape not being bio-degradable. The XFasten Extra Strength Double Sided Tape has twice the bonding power and amount of adhesive compared to our standard double-sided tapes. Yes, I know it's fiddly, but in this age of looking closely at what we use in order to save the planet, I would guess that foam tape scores highly as being non-degrading when thrown away. If the glass is cracked, use this tape to seal it and prevent cold air from coming in. This tape is great for use with plastic sheeting when making storm windows. It adheres to almost all surfaces, making this clear double sided tape a must-have product for many households. Interior/Exterior Clear Plastic Weather Seal Tape features a cold-weather formula for use in temperatures as low as -10 Degree Fahrenheit. At the risk of being controversial, I hate foam tape - one of my three pet hates in cardmaking, along with 3D decoupage and cutesy! If I want something to stand out in relief, I take a piece of scrap card of the appropriate thickness and cut a backing just smaller than the item. The XFasten Double Sided Tape, 1.5-Inch by 15-Yards is proud to have the best adhesive material that balances out adhesive bonding power and the ability to not damage surface finishes and to not leave any sticky residues. ![]()
