Elmer's Glue
One of my favorite glues is Elmer's glue. I recommend using the clear glue because it dries clear. It sometimes says that the white glue dries clear, but not as good as the clear glue. The blue gel glue also works fine. For the glue sticks, either the gel or the purple will work. My opinion is that many of the glues are horrible and are not as good as Elmer's glue.
Aleene's Tacky Glue
Aleene's tacky glue is probably the most well known tacky glue. I love their glue. It is great when you need to make a quick card. I have used it to make a quick card, and it is almost unbelievable how good it works. I think you can only get it at craft stores. It is also very cheap. I got a bottle for $2.00. Next time you go to a craft store, think about picking up a bottle of Aleene's tacky glue.
