Starting this month our design team members will be reviewing some of their favorite products. This month's featured product is definitely a favorite here at The Crop Shop it's called Zip Dry from Beacon Adhesives.
Here's what Julie has to say about Zip Dry.
"As a scrapbooker and altered artist, one of my favorite adhesive products is Zip Dry by Beacon Adhesives. I've been using Zip Dry since I was first introduced to it during a class I attended over three years ago. As an altered artist I love how well it works on a variety of mediums, such as, paper, chipboard, acrylics, metals and all kinds of embellishments. While scrapping I've found that Zip Dry never causes my paper to bubble nor will it damage my photos. If I accidently get some adhesive somwhere it doesn't belong, it just rubs away leaving no marks or stains."
Nancy, another member of our team had this to say.
" Since the first time I used Zip Dry I was hooked! One of my favorite things is that it gives me time to adjust my paper, photos or embellishments before it dries. I am always repositioning different elements of my projects as I work and Zip Dry gives me those few extra seconds to get it "just right." I rarely use any other adhesives on my projects."
"Zip Dry paper glue is the only liquid adhesive I use. I've been hooked on Zip Dry since the first time I tried it over 6 years ago. It allows you to easily slide or adjust your paper and/or embellishments around once you adhere them down. It is not instantly permanent like many other products. I often change my mind on placement or want to slightly shift things and can easily do that when using Zip Dry. Excess glue easily rubs away without ANY marks. Seriously, you have to see it to believe it. I cannot craft with out it! I use it for almost every project I do. Once you try it, you will not be able to get enough of it!
Zip Dry = Priceless :)"

Hi Dee and the Princesses,
Thank you so much for a wonderful day. Loved the cards we made and the ranger project we did at the crop shop. Please keep us updated on February week end.

If you are working on ANY altered project...or one that requires some heavy duty adhesive...you gotta have Zip Dry! My friends and I are not ZD addicts and always have it on hand. I've actually had other stores order it...and once they used it, it's always in stock. Just remember to keep the lid tight and secure or it will dry out.

I love zip dry and usually have a few bottles on hand for scrapping or altering arts.

I found out about Zip Dry from a Scrapbook Store I used to shop at. I bought one bottle and I was addicted to the product. I now own The Crop Shop and we are never without a huge supply of Zip Dry. This product is a staple for every scrapbooker, cardmaker and crafter. Zip Dry is a one step process and it is so easy to use on paper, ribbon, metal, fabric and so many more surfaces. I have used Zip Dry on canvas, wood and plastic. It works and if you happen to get the adhesive where you do not want it, it just rubs off easily. This adhesive is a MUST have for anyone who crafts. Stop in for a free demo and see it for yourself!
