Question -- Why not start with sticky-back label paper to begin with? It's about the same thickness/weight/consistency as printer paper, but with the adhesive already applied. And, you can run it through a laser printer or ink-jet printer to apply patterns, if needed. The final seal can be a drop of thin CA at the lap joint applied through one of those very tiny Teflon tubes or a squeeze-bulb applicator.
