    Most of the time I use Ranger multi medium matte and score tape. Thanks for the chance to win!

  2. Danielle Dietz says:

    My absolute favorite adhesive is the Tombow Mono Glue!

  3. ivy says:

    I use the tombow adhesive. started a couple years ago after your recommendation. TFS your favorites!

  4. Fabulous hints and tips, Jennifer … thank you! Just got some Stick It! sheets so will be trying those, also use Multi Matt Medium and a Scotch ATG! Anita 🙂

  5. Shalu says:

    My Favorite Adhesives are Alinee’S Original tacky Glue & Score tape for papers ..also love to use Ranger’s Glossy accents & E6600 Multi purpose glue for metal charms & other heavy material !!
    Thanks for the chance n sharing Your favorites with us …Helpful in many ways !!

  6. Carol Khoo says:

    Love the recommendation on Tombow Runner adhesive. Now know what to pick from so many choices…

  7. Catrinel says:

    I use a variety of adhesives, Kuretake glue pen, Stick it, Tombow liquid glue, Tombow xtreme, double sided foam tape. Do you not find it strange that given a card is a relatively small thing, there isn’t one adhesive that works for everything? 🙂 I suppose this is more to do with the variety of techniques that can be used…

  8. Brittney Lee says:

    Hands down the Tombox Mono Liquid Adhesive. It can be used on a lot of surfaces and gives me a little wiggle room when adhering something down…which I like 🙂

  9. Janice L. says:

    My go-to adhesive is a UHU all purpose adhesive which I’ve had for ages and I got it from my local bookstore. Though it gets the work done, however, the nozzle is very large and everytime I want to stick tiny images, it gets very messy. I really want to get Ranger’s multi medium matte as I’ve heard many rave reviews about it and it’s nozzle is small and will not be so messy.

  10. Kym says:

    I mostly use double-sided tape and I love Zig two-way glue pens for fiddly bits.

  11. Sherisse Aw says:

    I’ve recently purchased the Stick-it adhesive sheets as I’ve hear many positive reviews about it, specifically how it is the best way to adhere thin die cuts to your card. I can’t wait to try it out!:) My go-to adhesive is a glue tape I purchased from my local craft shop but that was before I heard about the Tombow Stamp Runner Adhesive. It is a good price for the length of tape each packet contains and the tape is clear, unlike the previous glue tape I used which dispenses blue tape, which isn’t very useful sometimes.

  12. Shayn L. says:

    I use a foam mounting tape and multi purpose adhesive from my local bookstore. It’s not from a known brand nor very brilliant but it gets the work done.

  13. Renee V. says:

    I don’t know what I would do without my ATG !!!!!!! Thanks Jennifer, loving the series as usual!

  14. Janice L. says:

    My to-go adhesive is UHU all-purpose adhesive. It gets the job done however, the nozzle is very wide and so whenever I have to adhere small pieces, it gets really messy and that drives me crazy. I’ve been wanting to get my hands on the Ranger multi medium matte as I’ve heard many rave reviews about it. However, it seems to be unavailable in my country:(

  15. Anna Kluytmans says:

    Thank you Jennifer for all the information on the different card stock and adhesives you use on you cards.
    Cheers Anna.

  16. Shirley says:

    Great video. Currently I’m using both ATG Gun by Scotch and Tombow Xtreme permanent adhesive.

  17. Lesley says:

    I like the Multi Medium Matte for small details, the sticking power of Scor-Tape, especially on glitter papers, and would love to try the Tombow Tape Runner!

  18. dapperdoxie says:

    My favorite in the tape runner is tombow mono dot but it comes in a different dispenser than what you show here…not sure if they are different or not. LOVE it though! For liquid, I LOVE my art glitter glue, I probably use it more than the tape runner now that I have discovered it, although I still love my tape runner.

  19. Nancy C says:

    I mostly use the Tombow Mono liquid glue and my ATG runner tape.

  20. Toni C says:

    My favourite actually is the Tombo Stamp Runner (I bought it after you talked about it in one of your posts ages ago). I have the Scotch ATG but I too struggle with it. I also love Aleens Turbo Tacky glue pen – it’s really strong and dries super fast.

  21. Carolyn Cece says:

    My favorite is Ranger multi matte medium. I love that it dries matte since my gluing isn’t always perfect.

  22. Gerrina says:

    Thanks for reminding me of the Stick it adhieves paper! That is what I have to buy and get using!!

  23. Rukmini says:

    I love the Ranger multi medium and the Be Creative Tape.

  24. Heidi says:

    I have shortly discovered the Ranger Medium Matte, it is like magic (you do not see it, but everything you put on it stays put)!

  25. Sheryl L says:

    Been using Ranger multi matte since you have recommended it. It is now my go to. Most of my other liquid adhesives now get ignored.

  26. Kay says:

    Using Ranger medium matte more and more.

  27. Monique says:

    I’m a Tombow fan; I use the stamp runner and the mono multi liquid glue the most!

  28. changedbyHim says:

    Since I am still learning…I turn to the ATG gun first, then Scor-Tape and lately due to your videos I have been using Ranger Multi Medium Matte Adhesive. Thanks for having the give-aways.

  29. calsryh says:

    I’m new to card making, so the only adhesives I have are the 3m tape and a glue stick. That stick it paper is very cool!

  30. Sandy Salazar says:

    I’ve been using AdTech Craft Adhesive. It’s a cheapie brand sold at Walmart, but it works really well so far! Can’t take anything apart without ripping it.

  31. Branka says:

    I also use tombow pink runner, i find it very easy to use. For embelishments i use either ranger multi medium or tombow mono liquid adhesive.

  32. Carolina A says:

    super useful video, again ?
    I like to use double sided tape, it’s the most easy to find/buy adhesive where I live.

  33. My favorite adhesive is art glitter glue with a fine tip metal nozzle. I love it!

  34. Sylvia Craig says:

    I have been using the Tombow in the green bottle. After watching your video, I think I will try the Ranger,
    I was also impressed with the Tombow pink runner. So fun to learn about products I haven’t used! Thanks!
    Sylvia Craig

    most of the time I use my ATG but I also use a lot of 3M foam mounting tape.

  36. Kimbra H says:

    My fav is Multi Medium Matte… I seem to reach for that over all.. If I have something I really don’t want to fall off that is my go to glue… Love all your work…

  37. Nancy Hansen says:

    Thanks for all your detailed advice, it really is helpful.
    I use Scotch foam tape a lot and their glue, but looks like Multi Medium might be a better choice for the future.

  38. Candyce says:

    I love your “My Favorite Things.” It really help know what works well so we don’t have to waste our $.
    Tombo Mono Mult liquid glue is my go to.

  39. Mardee Macha says:

    I love Tombow adhesive products and the Multi Medium Matt. I use them all the time! Thanks for your giveaways.

  40. Gabriella says:

    I love my glue glider, sorry it’s not one of your faves, but it sure is mine

  41. Colleen H says:

    Loved the video, my favorite is the Ranger Multi medium for the liquid adhesive as of now no favorite for the runner kind.

  42. Alida says:

    I’ve tried your suggestion of Ranger Matte Medium and I love it! I really appreciate the time you take to keep us informed about available products and tools.

  43. ambecoming says:

    My new favorite is my ATG. I got it at Michael’s on the clearance row. It’s the 1/2 inch one, but it works great for adhering panels to card bases. As a real plus, it’s also awesome in my guest room which doubles as gift wrap central! (It’s one of those things I never thought I would buy, but now I am glad I did. It’s amazing how fast I can go through 36 yards of tape!) I also love my Art Glitter glue. It’s a wet glue with amazing bond and very little goes a very long way! It’s repositionable, but only for a few seconds. Once it grabs, it’s not coming apart. For my embellishments, I still like my fine tip applicator bottle of Alary white glue from the Dollar Tree for embellishments, but I did buy some of the multi medium matte, too! I love my double stick tape from Punch Place Plus. It’s designed to hold fabric to headbands, so it’s super strong and easy to work with, and VERY affordable! Thanks so much for all you do and share!

  44. Karen says:

    My ATG gun for sure!

  45. Jessica Monte says:

    Thank you for all your kindness all the time you take out of your day to bring us such wonderful inspiration and insight and thoughtful giveaways…

  46. Niki says:

    I like using scotch double sided tape and glue dots. Thanks

  47. Mary Werry says:

    Scor-tape junkie here. Have also been using Glossy Accents and have just switched over the the multi medium matte – save my accents for accent!

  48. Jean Marmo says:

    I love TOmbow Mono Multi Liquid. My fave go to for everything!!

  49. cindy s. says:

    The Stick It paper sounds like a real winner…thanks for sharing.

  50. Amy Ryall says:

    Love love love Scor tape and Ranger matte multi medium!
