Similar to baking paper? One side is shiny and the other is textured I think?

I doubt if baking paper is the same thing - I don't think freezer paper would do well in an oven, and it seems like baking paper would be used in an oven as a lining on a pan.  Freezer paper has a wax coating on one side and plain paper on the other side.  The plain side is not textured - it's very much like bond paper, maybe slightly softer.  The waxed side is what melts and adheres to the wood.

I have done something similar but I always used a glue stick the kind you would find at Staples or Office Max http://www.staples.com/Staples-Washable-Glue-Sticks/product_SS992770  The residue is minimal if any that a light sanding wouldn't take care of.

 

I'll have to try the freezer paper and see how it works.

I didn't read all the posts so I'm not sure if anyone's mentioned this but have you tried carbon paper (cp)? You put the cp between your pattern and the wood an trace over the pattern. It then leaves a graphite line on the wood where you traced just as if you had put the pencil directly I the wood. I love Arvin paper. This stuff sounds great too it sounds like it would be good for other specific things Arvin paper couldn't do
