What glue do you use? I bought Flitter Glue (after i n t e r m i n a b l e searching!!) on the advice of a Y.T.'r, but am disgusted with how long it's taking to DRY!!! I also bought the "Best Glue Ever", but to date haven't opened that one.
I have used Aleene's tacky glue on several cards and all the cards warped and buckled to the point I couldn't use them. I had it on hand so I used it, but no more. Not for card making anyway. Thank you for your review. You confirmed what I was thinking.
I came to the comments to see comments on this. (The 3-in-1 glue but in a better bottle). Did your solution stand the test of time and if so which one did you buy?
Great video. Love it when video's get to the point. So great you covered 'buckling' which is the main issue I have & have wasted so much money on getting one that works for cardstock. The best I've found so far here in Australia is Tombow Mono Multi Liquid Glue but not the cheapest but will now try the Beacon 3 in 1 & the Art Glitter Glue which I can get here. Thanks again.
I have been using AGG for about 15 years and I love it! If you are anywhere close to Cottonwood Arizona you have to stop into their show room! It’s just amazing! Sometimes on Saturdays they sometimes have make takes. Don’t be surprised if you have some glitter on you when you leave there!
Thanks for the video! I use the Bearly Arts glue for the teeny tiny precision pieces and double sided tape for adhering larger pieces of card stock together. Avoids the warping and saves the spendy Bearly Arts glue for when I really need precision.
Thank you! I have struggled so much and ruined so many cool projects in the glueing process. Another difference I would be interested in is how easy it is to shift things around after gluing. I’m also interested in your favorite tape runners, the best way to use them and how you decide to use that vs glue. Keep up the great work! It is so appreciated!! ❤️
When I use glue for my projects and use the tacky glue, I usually squeeze some out on a piece of card stock that I would be throwing out or on my craft mat. I then just apply it with a thin paintbrush to the project.
I use all of the glues you sampled for us, they are all great for my projects. Next time use black paper or card stock to demonstrate, shows up better, just a tip. Thanks for the demo.
Thank you for this awesome video! I love AGG and Beacon. I call Beacon my construction glue. It's especially helpful on my 3D projects. And when I don't have heavy duty cardstock and I want to add some strength to my projects, I definitely go for Beacon 3-in-1. 🤩🤩🤩
Thank you for the great comparison video. I am a super new crafter and had to buy everything from glue on up. I have the tacky glue but none of the others. I saw the Beacon in our Dollar Tree but disappeared months ago. They only have their foam board glue now. Hope it's a supply chain issue. The Bearly Art isn't in Canada. Since I had to buy this type of glue, tape runners and glue sticks, I would appreciate a video on those too. Thanks for sharing.
I used the same ones you chose Nick, love those two glues. Aleen's glue is just to hard for these RA hands to get out, just doesn't happen. So for me it is Art Glitter Glue for fine detail work, you can't go wrong with Beacon glue, and of course my trusty ATG tape gun. lol Great comparisons! Hugs, Brenda
Art glitter glue! It is thinner than Aleenes and Scotch (haven’t tried the others) yet holds just as good and I don’t have to leave my glue bottle upside down. Like you said it’s perfect for intricate work.
@@TheBeardedHousewife So far, I haven't purchased it. The shipping in the U.S. was over twice as much as the cost of the Collall glue but still plan on getting the others! Thanks again!
Thanks very much for this video. I agree that the Bearly Art glue is watery and was pretty disappointed when I tried it. You could see the ridge left by the glue until it dried completely. Wish I'd tried Art Glitter glue first. Right now I'm liking NUVO Deluxe Adhesive, but I believe it's more expensive than some of the others. It does have a fine pointed tip so it works for small embellishments or the backs of die cut words.
I'd like to suggest that you compare pricing as well, and yes, I know prices change with time, but usually they will stay within a ratio of the most expensive to least expensive so you can see how much glue for your buck you get - Crafting supplies are expensive and all those pennies add up. I'd be curious how dollar store glues compare.
The last I looked (early 2022?) my $-tree carried the Beacon's, Aleen's Tacky, and Elmer's; obviously in small bottles, but if you don't use glue regularly, maybe that's a good thing? That way less of the product can go bad. Oh, they also had / have an 8 oz. bottle of E6000 Adhesive Spray ("Low Odor, Interior / Exterior, Easy Clean-Up, Multi-Surface, ... Scrapbooking & Framing, ... ). CAVEAT!!! C L E A R the NOZZLE A N D TUBE after each use!!! (BTW ... to keep AERASOL CANS from plugging up, up-end the can and spray until the discharge BLOWS C L E A R!! Obviously, you don't want to be doing BUNCHES of bitty projects and clearing the nozzle this way, or you'll run out of air in the can, but NOT doing this, plugs up the inside tube and nozzle. Enjoy, Crafters, and be well!
I like Art glitter glue and ranger multi medium matte since it dries with no shine at all. I use the Scrapbook Adhesives tape runner. Best tape runner I’ve ever used.
I might be the only one, but when I get buckling I iron it at about 300. It's saved me from wasting time and supplies! I love beacon glues, I've been using fabri-tac for most of my crafting for over 25 years. I haven't tried the 3 in 1 yet, im going to try it and the Art glitter glue based on this video! Thank you
I thin Aileen’s with water, in one of those little squeeze bottles with the metal tips. Maybe 1 part water to 3 parts glue, I don’t know. I don’t measure, I just add glue to the water, in that little bottle , shake, squirt it out to observe the viscosity, add or decrease glue. Not rocket science but i am trying to find the non-buckling formula! I wish I could order the glitter glue into Canada without pledging my firstborn. Not kidding.
I love following you! I have used all of the glue you mentioned and am now using Nuvo deluxe adhesive....would love for you to give an opinion on it. please
I don't have experience with all the glues but I do think you used way too much of the bearly art glue which might have lead to your warping. I don't have a problem with warping and I use the precision tip with just a quick outline then a little squiggle on the cardstock. I just finished an album which had me glue lots of layers, a full page of decorative cardstock, a tab of cardstock that folds over the main page, wth the hinged part behind the main cardstock (attached before attaching the main page to the album), several cardstock embellishments on the card, a piece of watercolor paper, chipboard embellishments, heavy printed paper embellishments, fabric lace, vellum printed embellishments on each page. 14 pages later, nothing is warped and all is holding well. I pulled at the items, no problems with adhesion.
Thanks for the feedback! Like I said, this was my personal opinion and I know everyone will probably have different results. I did use the same amount of glue as the other tests, though. Your project sounds amazing!
I just placed an order for the Beacon glue. I am willing to try a new one. I am using Art Glitter in bottles I bought on Amazon that have a small tip and cap. I don’t like the tip for Art Glitter. My pin rusted in it and it also got clogged. Thanks for all the valuable info.
Yay! I think you’ll like it. As I said, there is an odor but it’s a great glue. I have run into the pin rusting too with the Art Glitter Glue. It is still a fantastic choice!
I bet that 'more watery' one would work great out here (live in the Southwest & its so dry,) everything dries out so fast here, it would probably just even out to be normal consistency
I will add that video to my list. Yes, I have run into the Art Glitter Glue not adhering. It can dry pretty quickly so if I’m slow at applying the layer or I get distracted, I will have to reapply. It can happen if I don’t put enough glue on as well.
Would the Aleene's Clear Tacky glue work? The regular bottle of Aleene's is hard to use, I've used it most of my crafting life. I'm 74 so that's been a good while. Perhaps putting the Aleene's in one of those smaller bottles with the precision tip would work. Thank you for your video.
Thank you for your thoughtful comments on the various glue products. I primarily use Tombow for larger areas and Bearly Art Precision glue for delicate, thin areas. I want to replace the Bearly Art because it is so thin, almost watery. I tried Connect from GinaK and did not care for it, even though it came highly recommended. Not only is it expensive, but the tube clogs very quickly. Years ago, I used the Art Glitter Glue, and I will go back to that brand now.
If your in the UK try original hi-tack All Purpose glue I get it in hobbycraft then buy the model mini bottles for glue and use a sewing pin to keep them open
If you are getting buckling from your adhesive then you are possibly applying too much of it. Only a small amount is needed to adhere cardstock together.
Please do a video on tape runners and other adhesives for card making. Thank you, going to make your Christmas Concertina Card, struggling to get it to work as the video speeds through the process and the blue layer never attaches. Wish me luck
I loved the video! The different tests you did were a lot of what I would need. My only question is are any or all of them acid free? I'm looking for a good glue I can use for scrapbooking as well, and they usually recommend it to be acid free to keep it from yellowing. What would you recommend?
Hi, I have been using a solvent based glue recently as I have had a lot of warping with water based glues. However, although it often works brilliantly for layering, at other times the solvent based glue seeps through and leaves a horrible 'greasy' looking smudge. I have tried to use less glue but it still happens. Is it me? or the card or paper? Any hints would be appreciated
I also have an issue with Aileen's Glue being so hard to get out of the bottle; it seems as if there should be a way to have a more flexible bottle. I'd love the lower price, but it's just so hard to work with. Has anyone tried rebottling it? Is it worth the effort?
I have a very old bottle, the largest available. The glue was very hard to get out. So I added some water, and rotated the bottle a lot. It helped, but your idea to rebottle: going to try that! Great idea. And perhaps I will put it in a fine tipped bottle and add enough water so it acts like the Glitter glue and/or the Bear glue.
Do you recommend putting the glue all the way to the edges? Does the work peel up. Do you spread it out after applying it? I would think it would create a bulge if you don't spread out. Thanks in advance for your reply. pa
Thank you for this video. I am originally from The Netherlands, we moved here almost 10 year ago. I used solvent based glue in The Netherlands the most. It is very easy to get there, many different brands and extremely affordable. (I use (this) glue because there is some time to wriggle cardstock in the exact place.) So when I needed glue it was very hard to find the glue I wanted. All I found is water based, which I don’t like because of the warping of the cardstock. About a year ago I finally found the beacon glue at the Dollar Tree, it specifies for foam board, but it is solvent based. Then for months is was not available until last week. The new glue is in bigger bottles, but unfortunately they changed the formula and is now water based. Result: warped cardstock. I will go and try the 3 in 1 from Beacon, hopefully that one is still solvent based. I also use Aleene’s glue, although it is difficult to get out the bottle. There is an Aleene’s glue that stays tacky, that is perfect to make your own glue dots, or to make your own enamel dots sticky. The other two types you showed are way overpriced in my opinion. I wonder if I water down my Aleene’s and put it in a fine tipped bottle if I get the same results… Again, thank you for this comparison👍👍
Look, a man with a Cricut. I don't know why papercrafting has to be such a girly hobby. I subscribed. I don't have a favorite adhesive. They all displease me in different ways.
My issue is how obscenely overpriced AGG and Bear glue are. Sorry. Don't care how good the glue is (and both are great) $22 (as of today) for a bottle of GLUE is absurd. This is not mermaid tears or Aztec gold; it's glue. They need to cut their prices.
I totally agree with you, it is not just the glue, other craft items (especially for card makers so it seems) are ridiculously overpriced! Luckily there are alternatives, and often the same articles, from companies not specifically for card making.

Thank you so much Nick! I am hoping to solve the glue issues of wrinkled paper and no adhesion with so many glues! I will try your 2 faves.
I put some of my 3 in 1 glue in a needle tip bottle; great for those tiny fill ins and fine line gluing.
Great tip!!!
I came to the comments to see comments on this. (The 3-in-1 glue but in a better bottle). Did your solution stand the test of time and if so which one did you buy?
I use Aleene's and a brush. I prefer a brush to a nozzle
Oh a brush is an excellent idea!

Yeah, some clue as to working time would be good.
+1 for the shift test
When I use glue for my projects and use the tacky glue, I usually squeeze some out on a piece of card stock that I would be throwing out or on my craft mat. I then just apply it with a thin paintbrush to the project.
Great idea!
I don't get warping because I use a brayer to make sure the glue is evenly spread between layers
The brayer is such a smart tip!
I use all of the glues you sampled for us, they are all great for my projects. Next time use black paper or card stock to demonstrate, shows up better, just a tip.
Thanks for the demo.
Good feedback. Thank you!
Good video. I have used Art Glitter Glue since day one. Will definitely check out Beacon. Yes, please do a tape runner comparison.
Thank you, Shirl. I will add that video to my list!

Do you recommend putting the glue all the way to the edges? Does the work peel up. Do you spread it out after applying it? I would think it would create a bulge if you don't spread out. Thanks in advance for your reply. pa
I try to get close to edge but I don’t spread
Would the art glitter glue precision tip work on the beacon glue?
I have tried that but the beacon is a little on the thicker side. It has a hard time passing through the precision tip.
I’ve used the AAG for over a decade but man it likes to clog. I’ve switched to the bear glue this year.
It does like to clog!
I'm concerned with buckling.
I find the Beacon 3 in 1 and Art Glitter Glue give me the best results. Little to no buckling.
What thickness is your cardstock?
In this experiment, the cardstock I used was 65 lb.
