What Glue Should I Use?
The easy rule of thumb is use light glue for light items and heavy glue for heavy items.

Glue Stick or Photo Tabs or double sided tape runners

*Paper
*Cardstock
*Diecuts

Liquid adhesive that dries clear (like Crafter's Pick Ultimate glue)

*Dried Flowers
*Paper
*Mica chips
*Ribbons
*Fibers
*Beads
*Charms

Aleene’s Tack It Over and Over Glue

*unmounted rubber stamps

Caulk

*Dimensional elements (holds shape)

Spray Adhesive

*Vellum
*Feathers
*Loose-weave ribbons

Glue Dots/Lines

* Heavy items like dominoes
* Fibers
* Ribbons

Pop Dots

*Creating 3D effects

Good luck!! Debbie Weller
