Prepare the special sticker mixture using the following recipe:
  • 1 packet unflavored gelatin
  • 1 Tablespoon cold water
  • 3 Tablespoons boiling water
  • 1/2 teaspoon light corn syrup
  • 1/2 teaspoon lemon extract
In a small bowl sprinkle gelatin into cold water.  Let soften for 5 minutes.  Pour boiling water into softened gelatin and stir until dissolved.  (If you have trouble getting it to dissolve, bring it to a boil in the microwave.  Just a few seconds.)  Add corn syrup and lemon extract.  Mix well.  (The corn syrup and lemon extract are for taste and can be replaced with sugar and vanilla to taste, or just omit.

Brush the mixture thinly on the back of your sticker photos and let dry.  That's it!  Just cut, lick, and stick.

Note:  The sticker mixture will gel overnight.  Return it to a liquid state by placing the container of seal gum in a pan of hot water.  You may store the mixture in a container in the refrigerator for months.
