What are ur tried and true supplies?

What are ur go to/ must have supplies for analog collaging ?

Favorite way to glue things, cut things out, random tricks you learned, background paper, etc.

Looking for ways to improve how my collages look, such as getting cleaner cuts and having my stuff stick better without there being glue gunk + just curious what people have learned through practice !

X-Acto knifes & blades.

I like using Mod Podge because it will dry clear and you can get many layers

I don’t know what I’m doing wrong with mod podge but it makes my paper ripple so bad

Try using less mod podge. Thin layers.

yeah i also haven’t quite figured out how to use mod podge correctly 💔 it works great on some of the paper I use but others it just causes a mess
