Rub-Ons

Although they may look like stickers at first glance, rub-ons are a much more versatile scrapbook embellishment. Simply cut the design from the backing paper, adhere it face down onto your layout, and transfer it by applying gentle pressure with the applicator stick. When you're finished, you'll have a design that appears to have been printed directly onto your page.

Do you hate to throw away excess scrapbook supplies after finishing a project? Try creating unique home décor items to use up your stash of leftover rub-ons. Scrapbooking rub-ons can be applied to wood, glass, or metal surfaces. This means they can be used to decorate everything from candle holders and vases to picture frames and mirrors.
