Our double-sided tapes give a clean, instant bond for card making, scrapbooking, and wedding stationery. From everyday tissue tape to easy lift options and extra-strong tape for glitter card, each type is designed to make crafting quicker, neater, and more reliable.

Which double sided tape should I choose?

Our double sided tapes give a clean, instant bond for card making, scrapbooking, and wedding stationery. Choose the best option based on the surface you’re sticking and how strong you need the hold to be.

Please note: none of these tapes are waterproof. All are acid and lignin-free, making them safe for scrapbooking.

Standard double sided tape (tissue tape)

This is your everyday essential for paper crafts. It tears easily by hand (no scissors needed unless you prefer a super neat edge) and sticks smooth paper and card together beautifully.

  • Great for general card making and layering
  • Ideal for smooth paper and smooth card
  • Will hold lightweight embellishments
  • Available widths: 3mm, 6mm, 12mm, 25mm

Easy lift tape (tissue tape with easy-peel backing)

Made from the same tissue-style tape, but with a slightly wider backing strip so it’s easier to lift and peel away. A brilliant choice if you struggle with fiddly backing papers or have dexterity issues.

  • Easier to peel than standard tissue tape
  • Perfect for quick assembly and repetitive tasks
  • Great for crafters with dexterity challenges
  • Available in two widths (as listed in the products below)

Super sticky double sided tape (extra strong bond)

This is the one for maximum hold when you need an instant, strong bond. It has a red removable backing, but the tape itself is clear. Customers have even told us they’ve used it for surprisingly heavy-duty jobs (yes, including blinds!).

  • Ideal when you need a strong, instant bond
  • Excellent for tricky surfaces like glitter card (no glue needed)
  • Red peel-off backing, tape is clear
  • Use scissors to cut for a clean finish
  • Available widths: 3mm, 6mm, 12mm

Quick tips for best results

  • For smooth card and paper: choose standard tissue tape
  • For easier peeling: choose easy lift tape
  • For glitter card or strong bonding: choose super sticky tape
  • Apply firm, even pressure to help the adhesive bond properly

Double Sided Tape FAQs

Quick answers to help you pick the right tape for your project.

What is tissue tape?

Tissue tape is a standard double sided tape used in card making and paper crafts. It’s easy to tear by hand and gives a clean, instant bond on smooth paper and card, making it ideal for everyday crafting and layering.

Which double sided tape is best for glitter card?

Our super sticky double sided tape is best for glitter card. It’s designed for an instant strong bond and handles tricky textured surfaces better than standard tissue tape, so you can stick glitter card without needing glue.

What is easy lift tape used for?

Easy lift tape is a tissue-style tape with a slightly wider backing strip, making it easier to peel. It’s ideal for quick assembly, repetitive crafting, and anyone who finds standard backing papers fiddly or has dexterity challenges.

Do I need scissors to cut double sided tape?

Standard tissue tape usually tears easily by hand, so scissors aren’t essential. Super sticky tape is best cut with scissors for a clean edge and accurate placement, especially on detailed projects.

Is double sided tape waterproof?
