The Waffle Flower 5.5x8.5 inch Grip Mat is designed to securely hold your cardstock in place during various crafting activities such as stamping, stenciling, ink blending, and adding embellishments. It is made from high-quality photopolymer, which naturally possesses a gentle stickiness that allows it to grip your papers without the need for adhesives or glues.
The natural stickiness of the photopolymer material ensures that you can use this mat repeatedly without losing its gripping ability. By using the Waffle Flower Grip Mat, you can significantly reduce the need for taping your cardstock, allowing you to spend more time crafting and exploring different techniques.
The 5.5x8.5 inch size is specifically designed to fit perfectly in the Waffle Flower Mini Stencil Mat. The mat comes with printed Guides that can be placed either below or above the mat to assist with precise cardstock placement as needed.
If the mat loses its cling over time or becomes dirty, you can easily clean it with water or mild soap to restore its stickiness. After cleaning, you can return it to the transparent sheet it comes with for storage.
Please keep in mind that low spots and air bubbles may appear on the mat, but they should not affect its gripping ability. To maintain the mat's longevity, it's important to avoid contact with foiled images, sharp edges, or abrasive materials. Additionally, certain inks or pigments may leave stains on the mat, which is normal with regular use. Wear and tear is also expected with normal use.
In summary, the Waffle Flower 5.5x8.5 inch Grip Mat is a reliable and convenient tool that securely holds your cardstock in place without the need for excessive taping. With its specific size, it fits perfectly in the Waffle Flower Mini Stencil Mat, and the included Guides assist with precise cardstock placement. Enjoy your crafting sessions with reduced taping and more time to explore your creativity.
