Cure under a UV lamp for 2 minutes. Remember to flip and cure for an additional minute to ensure all corners are fully cured. Your gorgeous gradient pearlescent bookmark is now complete!
Pro Tip
It is essential to use resin tape, as the adhesive in regular tape may dissolve under the high temperatures of UV lamp exposure. This can result in a sticky surface on the UV-cured pieces and leave adhesive residue. Resin tape has less adhesive and will not dissolve under the high temperatures of UV lamps, ensuring no sticky residue is left when removed.
