I recently downloaded a medieval town papercraft, it has some nice tips inside. Authors recommended to use Super 77 spray adhesive (or something like that). In my case this didn't work because despite of my best attempts to "spray adhesive" into russian I failed to find anything through the means of Interwebs. Well, looks like I have to go and check office supplies shops.
The following is a quote from manual by Todd Gamble, Robert Lazzaretti and Denis Kauth, part "Mounting and Burnishing". First, print out pieces of the desired pattern. (If you have a printer that can print directly onto cardstock, you can skip the spray-mounting process.) Step 1: Start by applying a thin layer of spray adhesive to a blank piece of posterboard. Don't lay it on too thick! If you prefer, cut the poster-board down to a more manageable size first. Step 2: Spray a mist of adhesive onto the backs of the printouts. Once all of them are coated, you are ready to mount and burnish. Note: It's best to let the posterboard and printouts sit for 30 seconds or so after spraying. This will produce a better bond. Step 3: Carefully lay each printout on the poster board, art side up. Then flatten it smoothly (burnish), using a roller or rubbing carefully with your hands. Repeat until all the printouts are mounted. To avoid messes, place a piece of plain paper over the printout while burnishing. Step 4: Using scissors, roughly cut out each mounted piece of art. Scissors alone are enough for most cutting other than the most intricate borders.
