    Hi wondered where you get your contact paper from. I got some for cd case and it just bows and bends the paper rather than just using the paper on its own

    • @ACrafterinTraining
      @ACrafterinTraining  ปีที่แล้ว

      I get it from office depot. It is important that you get a good quality contact paper, as some contact papers are cheap and they don't want to stick. I suggest trying a piece of contact paper on a scrap piece of paper to see how it behaves before committing to a full project. Hope it helps.

      For the digipak, I use glossy photo paper. For the booklet, I use bond paper; it's similar to printing paper, but it's a tad thicker, and therefor, resistant. Hope it helps and thanks for watching.

    • @ACrafterinTraining
      @ACrafterinTraining  ปีที่แล้ว

      It might be due to the dimensions of the edges. When printing, you need to make sure to select print in real size, if that doesn't help, you need to trial and error till you get it right. Sometimes its the issue with the printing settings rather than the file.
