The glues I use the most is Aleene's Fast Grab Tacky Glue. It is in a purple bottle. There is also Aleene's Quick Dry Tacky Glue in a silver bottle. Tombo Mono Auqua liquid glue is good too. The bottle has a wide dispenser at one end and a narrow dispenser at the other end. Glue sticks sometimes help when glueing large areas. Apply whichever glue you use sparingly. Too much will cause all kinds of problems. Dispense a small amount on some scrap and use a toothpick to spread it on the glue area. Some syringes like what are used to refill ink cartridges are sometimes handy to store and apply glue. There are even all plastic syringes available for use with glue. Sometimes CA (or superglue) is good to use. It will stiffen up some pieces and is needed when glueing paper to metal. Be sure to roughen up the metal with some sand paper to give it some tooth so the glue can adhere to it more easily.
