What kind of glue do you use for scrapbooking?

I did 4 pages with a hot glue gun and they came out great.

Then, I did 2 more with elmer's and they look like total crap, all bumpy and wavy Chat Icon

I'm worried that a glue stick wouldn't "hold" the photos in very well...

I don't use any glue..I use either double sided tape or photo corner sticky tings. I only use hot glue when I have heavier things to put on a page.

oh, the double sided tape is a good idea!

For the photos that I use in scrapbooks, I "cut them out" so they're a lot smaller and uneven in shape. The corners wouldn't work, but the double sided tape is probably gonna be my winner! Thanks!

I use double sided tape squares for photos and tape runner for everything else. I did glue in the beginning and my pages took too long to dry adn did not come out as nice.

I like "glue dots" too - they sell them in micheals, in a little box like reinforcements.

I use the double sided removable adhesive. Its in a green dispenser and looks like the new white out tape dispensers. Mono adhesive I think its called. Be careful with hot glue and elmers as they ae probably not acid free and your pics will not last that long

That is true. Any adhesive you use, you must make sure that it is acid free.
