Default printed treasures label kit

I got the printed treasures label kit and am having a terrible time getting the backing to come off. Instructions say to gently remove paper backing. It just doesn't come off. Did I get an old set, or is there a trick to it. It peels off for about 1", then just shreds. I am very frustrated.

Anyone have any advice.

I had the same problem with Taylor's printed fabric. I dampened a sponge and put it on the back. Once the paper was moist it peeled off better.

Yes I had the same problem. Just run the iron over it (on the paper side) for a second or two and the paper will peel right off.

Thanks for the advice. The iron didn't work for me, but the water trick did. What a pain though. I can't imagine it is supposed to be that hard, it was coming off in crumb size pieces, even with water it took a long time to get it off.
