I use Elmer's Glue and a toothpick for sticking the stuff together. I use scissors, and sometimes a razor blade for the really tiny pieces.
The paper I use from the office supply store is a little thinner than what someone else suggested. I use 65 lb weight paper. I like the flexibility and durability of the paper. 90 lb weight would work fine, and possibly even 110 lb weight, but it depends on the user and the type of papercraft the paper gets used for. Also, 110 lb weight paper is about the maximum most printers can take before the paper jams in the printer.
Ah, UHU glue. Someone here is really serious about keeping these pieces archival quality. They make the best glue stick I've used to date for art projects. I prefer the liquid glues for papercraft just because some tabs are hard to get to with a glue stick, so in those cases, a toothpick and glue work nicely.
