Here is another simple tip. When you take your items off the backing paper from your xyron, save the paper. Then when you are glueing with a glue runner, put the backing paper under the item you are glueing. Keeps any over-run from getting on your work surface. I also save the packageing from bling, stamps etc. for the same purpose. If they are large enough you can put them under items you are spritzing with misters.
