There were bubbles all over the place, and it didn't do the mat justice at all. I wonder if that was due to the size of the mat - maybe a bookmark, being a lot smaller, wouldn't have that problem.
Sorry, Carol, misunderstood the item you were talking about, thought you were talking about a paper mat! Yes, you can get bubbles when you laminate lace, and the thicker the thread, the more likely you'll get them. Also, you have to leave a wide margin on all sides when you cut the excess laminating off, otherwise it will separate and peel off fairly quickly if the item is used often, like a bookmark. helene, the froggy from Melbourne Find local movie times and trailers on Yahoo!
