how to make double wall cardboard, how to cardboard around custom shape
After using several different glue guns I have stopped with narrow nozzle hot glue gun. It does really good job and gives you good control over hot glue flow.
Full size clear hot glue sticks in a big box are the best deal so far
This Elmer's white glue is very nice choice if you work with paper or cardboard. And the bottle size is good.

It is very beneficial to spend some time and prepare a paper bleed before you are going to glue cardboard.
1. Your creation will have nice and smooth corners.
2. It is much easier to apply hot glue and align the edge.
3. You can easily glue any shape around and create 3D effect
Quick way to connect smaller pieces of cardboard is to use hot glue. It cools down fast so you need to work quickly and secure your work with some tape. That is decent solution for small parts of a bigger project.
The best way is to use liquid glue (white glue is just fine). If glue is way too thick you may need to add some water and mix. The main secret is – put some weight and wait until it dries completely.
Paper bleed may be useful using white glue too. It allows you to connect parts smoothly and add strength to the seam.
