Vanilla ice cream in a bowl with broken chocolate chip cookie pieces and caramel sauce
We may have had our first snowfall of the season today, but it's never too cold for ice cream with homemade cookie crumbles! π

An art journal page that says "Keep looking up, there may be a rainbow waiting for YOU!" over a yellow background. Above and below the text is 2 pieces of pink and yellow paper with several lines and doodles over top. In the bottom right corner there is a sun with the number 19 in the center.
A happy art journal page

A drawing of a face over a gray background saying "We had such an awesome weekend"
I re-used an art journal page which gave this a textured surface.
This is about this weekend. Yesterday, my husband and I had Frisch's, went to an antique mall, saw Guillermo Del Toro's Frankenstein, and had Cheesecake Factory. Hope everyone else is having a nice weekend!

Art journal page featuring a doily painted over with red paint, a tag with black doodles glued over top, and leaves coming out of the bottom portion of a face. The words in the top left say "I can find inspiration everywhere"
The doily used on this page was torn up by a dog several years ago. In a way, I'm grateful he "destroyed" it because I always love the texture it adds to the art journal pages I add the pieces to

A snow globe that says "Let it snow!" at the base and features a child in a red coat sticking their tongue out to catch snowflakes and a white dog with black spots
A collage with the snow globe sitting in the snow. The words "let it snow" wee replaced with "Be yourself"
Last night, I went to a collage workshop at The Well here in Cincinnati. We made art inspired by meaningful objects we brought from home. I brought a snow globe that always seems to whisper "be yourself" when I look at it.

Thanks for sharing these tips! I've stayed away from ebay because I know that my ability to tell if something is a scam is not the best. But I think basing it off a 98% or higher rating might help. I tend to think 80%+ is good which may have been my problem!

As others have mentioned, glue sticks would work. If you want a stronger hold, I've never gotten bubbling when using Yes! paste (it is very thick and can be difficult to spread, though)
