Lisa - is there a trick to that glue stick? I used it for the recipes actually and a lot of them came apart - I ended up reinforcing with glue dots.

Dubliner - I'll also use a regular glue stick or a tape runner from creative memories.

I always let it dry a little bit before glueing it down.

oh, I thought that made the adhesive more temporary. I'll try it in my scrapbook next time - since the pages aren't handled too much it shouldn't be much of a problem anyway. thanks.
