I've been doing scrapbooking for about a year and a half and have been using both Tombo and photo splits for most of my work. Could you tell me what the majority of you use ... with so many layers in a lot of the cards etc, some of my stuff isn't sticking too well.
For my cards, I use Scotch Double sided tape. The first time I scrapbooked I used Hermafix (recommend by LSS).
I had the hardest time with it--but that's probably just me.

I just bought one of the Xyron adhesive runners. I think it may be a new product. It seems to work well, but I haven't tried it on anything really heavy or hard-to-stick. Anybody else use this?
Mono BUT if it has a lot of layers then I add some mini glue dots as well to the heavier layer if it includes embossing, eyelets, etc. that might make it lumpy.

adhesive
I usually use mono. If it is a heavy layer I'll add some sticky strip of scotch double sided tape for good measure. I also have glue dots for small items.
I use the Scotch ATG 700 for all of my layering; it is fantastic! Most of my stamping buddies have one and wouldn't be without it. They sell in the stamp stores for around $60, but I ordered mine from www.framingsupplies.com for $28 or so. It is well worth the investment.
I ONLY use Creative Memories adhesives for my scrapbooking....... no exceptions
BUT on my cards and crafts I use scotch double sided tape - after the mono cards came apart

I have tried mono-adhesive, photo splits, glue sticks, and a few other things, but my favorite is Double-Sided Tape. I use it ALL the time. For me, it sticks better than anything else!
What kind of adhesive do you use?
