Troubleshooting
Paper tears too easily during handling.
Handle the tissue paper with gentle, deliberate movements. Use a clean, dry surface for cutting and shaping. If adhering to a surface, apply adhesive evenly and avoid overworking the paper.
Colors bleed when adhesive is applied.
Ensure you are using an appropriate adhesive for tissue paper and that it is applied sparingly. Test on a small scrap piece first. Avoid excessive moisture in your adhesive.
Difficulty achieving smooth adhesion for decoupage.
Use a thin, even layer of decoupage medium or glue. Start adhering from the center and work outwards to smooth out wrinkles. A soft brush can help.
