Glue Glider Pro. It’s like a smaller ATG but the refills are way easier to install (but more expensive). Me too. We bought the LSS out of refills with 28-4-28 and Calvinball, but she has restocked and dh picked some up for me today. The "gun" is smaller and a little easier to use than the ATG. The refills snap in and out easily. The glue is forgiving for a bit in case I put something down wrong or want to tuck something under a layer already glued down. But in the end it holds well. I have also been known to use staples, brads, and washi tape, as well as liquid glue like Glossy Accents, or Sook Wang scor tape. to attach heavier items. |

I mostly use the mounting squares. I have a couple of small tape runners that were a freebie in orders I've placed online which I use mostly for sticking ribbon/twine to my pages, and I have some general purpose glue in a fine line bottle.

I feel like I'm being punked??!!! I'm surprised no one else has said anything? I don't think that's acid free, and it would put holes in your pictures? and just hard to do. It's definitely not the norm. How do you even mat or put down embellishments? staple them too? you're just pulling my leg, right?!!! Honestly I can’t understand why on earth you’re so concerned? I mean have you seen anything I’ve made? I can pop out 50 pages a week because I don’t have the stupid sticky squares to deal with. I am not picking on anyone else for their adhesive choices. I spend maybe $5 a year on staples. What’s the issue here. http://instagr.am/p/BgZXIiehA1c I guess I am puzzled to.. I don't think she means anything by it.. I have staples, the decorative kind.. Can you post a pic? |

I use maybe 10 staples a page versus 4 mounting squares PER ITEM. I have no time for that. I like to scrap quickly and my stapler lets me do that. |

julie5 , if staples are your 'thing' then I personally don't see any problem with it! (lol- not like my opinion matters; there are no rules in scrapping, after all!!) I can see the staples on the top edges of your photos and along the top edge of the patterned papers. Some people use brads or staples just for the 'look' of it, but why not use them to adhere things? after all, that's what they're for. I'm personally a 'slow' scrapper, so the adhering doesn't take nearly as long for me as the designing does-- so the time required for using other types of adhesives doesn't play into things at all. (unless I'm using Stickles for a decorative touch, since they take a long time to dry... but typically I set those pages aside overnight.)

Tombow mono runner is my go-to!
foam dots/squares
glue dots
limited liquid glue, can't even remember the brand but it adheres crazy fast and that is hard for me to work with (and messy). Sometimes there seems to be no other way though.

I just used all my refills and need to order more. I also use staples, brads, washi tape, Glossy Accents and ScorTape. I hope the glossy accents does well in a scrapbook I just made for a friend. |
