Both companies are offering giveaways!  You can win prizes by making your way through the blog hop list, leaving comments.    Then, pop over to the Paper Issues Face Book Page and tell what your favorite project.

Here is a list of blogs you need to make your way to:

<<<Mary-Ann Maldonado>>> You Are HERE!



Here is what I created using products from Paper Issues and adhesives from Tombow USA.
I used the Confetti line from Maggie Holmes Crate Paper (all purchased in the Paper Issues Store) to document my 32, no 33, no 42nd birthday!  Below I will share with you which adhesives I used for which product and why.




Take a look at this glorious adhesive.  Tombow USA has been my go-to adhesive for like, ever!  This is what the Paper Issues DT is playing with.  

The Tombow USA team is creating with the March edition of Paper Issues' popular Swag Bag.




Sometimes I find that the chipboard shapes are a bit to chunky.  With my fingernail, I peel off quite a bit of the back, making it thinner, less bulky for my scrapbooking albums.  Once I do that, the adhesive has usually been removed.  To adhere this, I used the Xtreme Permanent Adhesive, because it has such a strong hold.    To adhere paper to paper, I use the Mono Aqua Liquid Glue.  Perfect for spreading adhesive to larger areas with the broad end of the tube.  I added the flair using the Adhesive Dots.



I use a text box through my Word program to add my journaling to a smaller item.  I print it first on a piece of paper, then run that same paper back through attaching my tag with the Mono Multi Liquid Glue.  This glue can be used as a permanent glue or a temporary adhesive if you let it dry first.  Once I ran my tag through, I just rubbed the adhesive off of the back and inserted my tag into the hidden pocket.  

Head to the next blog.  Don't forget to leave comments for a chance to win prizes!  Paper Issues is giving away a $20.00 gift certificate to the store.  Tombow USA will be giving away the adhesives that mentioned above!
