I wish I had a sticker machine!! I usually make mine by using double sided tape and whatever I have that is thick...I need to invest in some fun foam.
I hope you don't mind I shared this on my craft page on Facebook, I've only just started to set it up with some of my cards I have made...
This is such a wonderful idea!!!! I own about 3 or 4 machines. This is a whole lot cheaper than buying the pop dots. I love this idea. Thanks for sharing!!!!
OMG! This is such a great idea! You are very creative. Thank you for sharing this! I am always so frugal about using my pop dots... now I can use as much as I want. And, since I have a small xyron and a whole stack of colored foam sheets, I can make 'em in several colors. No more seeing the white dots peeking out from under my projects! Thanks for sharing!
OHMYGOSHTHANKYOUTHANKYOUTHANKYOU!!!! I am the OKI StampQueen aka the POP DOT QUEEN! I have TONS of fun foam and now I know how to use it!!! And...I've run out of pop-dots so this is just awesome! THanks for sharing! Blessings,Sharon
@doolie82 :) I'm glad you liked it! I use permanent, just because it's my own preference, I prefer things not to move, but I find that if you move it within a minute or so, you can still move it, but it might lose some of the stickiness and might tear the paper you removed it from. I don't see why repositionable wouldn't work, but I prefer and therefore would recommend permanent.
@CraftaholicCentral thanks for the quick response! I think I will use permanent, but when I get around to it I'll try repositionable and let you know. <3
you dont HAVE to have a xylon machine either, just lay double sided sticky tape such as scor-tape along both sides of the foam and then cut to desired length
I just found your video and I am sooooooo excited. I am purchasing my xyron this weekend. I make cards everyday and other projects for church so being ableto make my own popdots I am thrilled.
I am going to have to give this a try. i just paid 3.99 for some pop dots. this would save me lots off money. I like the rounds ones but i think i could use a handpunch. thanks Bonnie
@MaryNSC haha I goof all the time! I wish I knew how to edit, at least to make my videos shorter, I try to make them short but it doesn't seem to work... :( I did get it off my finger! lol
I found some fun foam that was sticky on one side, so I cut it into strips and only had to run it through the xyron 1 time. It worked great, It was $.99 per sheet! Have a great day!
Thanks for sharing this idea! That is awesome, I am going to grab a foam sheet from my son's craft bin and make some. I am sure that is much cheaper too!

Hi, great idea! Definitely going to make my own. Which refill would you recommend in the Xyron? Permanent or repositionable?

@doolie82 Sorry I am just now seeing your question, it doesn't really matter which you use, I prefer the permanent though... :)

@bonmountford Yes hand punches would work really well especially since you can choose to have more small than large or vice versa, Good Luck! :)
