If you use tape only on the inside (you could, since the bottom of this particular craft is open) you can't fasten/tape the WHOLE glueing flap, since they overlap. You can only fasten one side, the other side will "stand open". Difficult to explain in words, not sure if the 5 hours in MS Paint make it clearer. ;) And obviously, also taping the outside will make it look baaaad... ;) Glue sticks tend to not stick well... Even from the start, their stickyness is usually far inferior to that of regular glue. Most of them also have a big, round head which makes it hard to precisely apply the glue (although you can get triangular ones that are a bit better, but not much). "Liquid" glues are usually the best choice. Many people use (white) PVA glue like Elmer's (it's just a brand name), or regular wood/carpenter's glue and they all say it works perfect for them. But basically any type of glue they use at your local kindergarten will work fine to. There are many good glues to stick two pieces of paper together. Hot glue guns or power glue/ 1-second glue are a bit overkill though, and most people find that they're not the preferred choice...
