    I used different adhesives for my cards, it will depend on what I’m doing. I use Glossy Accent, Zig pen, Stick it and 3M foam tape, Be Creative Tape and I recently bought Ranger Multi Medium Matte adhesive to try it, but it is still on its way…
    Thanks for your video.

    I use Aileen’s Tacky glue for most everything or score tape. No problems so far! My craft room is a spare bedroom so space is paramount – an ATG is just too big and requires more storage. Merry Christmas!

    I mostly use the Ranger Multi Medium Matte and the Tombow dot tape, but it is not the same dispenser as yours?? I also sometimes use double sided photo sticking squares and Glossy Accents as an adhesive for buttons. I always enjoy your “crafty” videos – I appreciate that you are so willing to share your secrets with us!

    Awesome, Jennifer! I really need to invest in some better card stock, Neenah is on my list. I love the ATG gun with the all purpose adhesive. Definaltely a learning curve to drive it. LOL. But alas, it’s not cost effective. When I created a massive all occasions greeting cards gift for several women for Mother’s Day, I used Aleen’s Fast Grab Tacky glue and it did all of the glueing and then some. I would really like to try the Tim Holtz multi matte medium. Thanks so much! Xo

    I love UHU glue sticks. I get some wiggle time and once attached provides a good stick. I make cards to sell at a market, so need something affordable. I have tried a few different tape runners but find I go through the them very quickly. Thanks for all the great info, I love this series.

    I have tried so many adhesives that have not worked for me and finally discovered the tombow permanent and removable. I think they are going to become my favorites. I also use multi-medium I think it’s by Ranger. It drys clear and really is nice for sticking small things down permanetly

    I use lots of double sided tape – just generic stuff – for holding down large pieces of card and glossy accents for plastics as their gloss just hides all my imperfect gluing laying. Thanks for the giveaway and I can’t wait to see the rest of your favourites!

    Love these wrap up favorite things of yours. I can always trust that you have tried the rest and only show us the best, like the saying on the pizza box! I have the Sookwang 2x sided tape in the 5 and 6 inch sizes as well as the others. It goes a long long way and is fantastic for die cuts. I found that I wasted a lot with the sheets. I do a lot of mixed media.

    The elephant babies stamps will come just in time as I am doing the table decorations for Grand child #5. Thanks so much for that. All of a sudden the gal that was nuts about anything with a duck on it wants elephants. Guess who stockpiled every duck stamp and die! lol

    My all-time favorite adhesive is Tombow Multi Liquid Glue. It is versatile and strong. What I love most is that it allows a little time before setup to adjust placement of an embellishment or card layer. Some crafters fondly call it “wiggle room”!

    I love the 3M Micropore tape, it’s so easy to break into many tiny pieces for die cutting. I prefer the smaller tombow and American Crafts refillable double-sided tape applicators to my ATG, they’re so much handier!

    My favorite adhesive is Theresa Collins Mega runner by Xyron. I’ve had many tape runner guns, and found I was unable to easily get refills for them, without cross border shopping, special orders (until stationary supply chain closed their mortar and stone stores) or online. This is my favorite mostly because it is available at the only chain craft store in Canada, so I’m finally covered locally 🙂 can jump in the car and fetch more when needed. But I still need to recycle or hand down my empty guns – they need good homes… It just occurred to me, we need local free cycle options soecifically for crafting goods. Trade and swap pre-loved orphaned craft items.

    I use the Ranger glossy accents for gems and sequins. For mounting cards to their base I currently use various runners because I can’t seem to find one that I really love, but you have inspired me so the Tombow Stamp Runner adhesive is on my Christmas wish list that I gave my husband ( and a pack of refills)!
