Loves of My Life - Tombow Blog Hop

Hello and Welcome to the Tombow USA and Paper Issues Blog Hop!

You probably got here from Latrice Murphy but if you got lost, head over to the Paper Issues blog to start!

Tombow USA were very generous and gave the Paper Issues team an amazing assortment of adhesives to use on our projects: Tombow Mono Adhesive Permanent, NEW Tombow Adhesive Dots, Tombow Mono Multi Liquid Glue and Tombow Mono Aqua Liquid Glue.

For my project, I made a layout using one of my favourite photos of my husband and son. I wanted to showcase that Maggie Holme's Confetti line could be used on 'masculine' layouts and did not have to be birthday themed. I was actually surprised at how much blue and green I found in this line.

I used the Tombow Mono Adhesive Permanent to glue down all of my paper products. There was a slight learning curve with this adhesive, but once I got the hang of it, I was super impressed with how well it held everything down. It's definitely stronger than my usual tape runner. I used the NEW Tombow Adhesive Dots beneath my photo and really liked them. They were easy to use and held really well.

I used the Tombow Mono Aqua Liquid Glue on all my bulky embellishments and I cannot say enough good things about this glue. I am officially a Tombow liquid glue convert. I used a few drops on on both the megal book plate and the bulky white flower and I have not had a problem with them sticking at all. I made this layout almost a month ago and I display my layouts standing up in my scrap room. Neither item has fallen off or budged at all.

I was so impressed at how well this glue holds, I actually used it on a card I made months ago that has a metal embellishment that keeps falling off. I have tried a bunch of different glues on it, but the embellishment keeps falling off. I used the Tombow Mono Aqua Liquid Glue on it about a week ago and it is still holding just fine. The card is ready to be sent to someone finally!
