Any advice? I need a rather strong glue, but it has to dry colorless and bond paper or fabric to glass and magnet.
This is what I want to make, but Im not happy with the glue I am using.

I have had success in making glass marble magnets with several products. Here are a few that you can try:
Omni Gel
Brush N Bond Glue
Super Glue Gel
Gorilla Glue
Liquid Nails (be sure to get the clear type)
These all dry clear (even those that don't appear to be clear when first applied), are very strong, and will bond the requested items with no difficulty. I recommend these gel-type glues because you don't have to worry about them being absorbed into your paper or fabric before you can even begin to adhere them to the marble or magnet. The only thing that you need to be sure to check is if the paper you want to use will 'bleed' (either the colors running or something on the back showing through). That is common in the lighter weight or colored papers or the heavily dyed (mulberry paper and crepe paper are infamous for 'bleeding').
Regular white glue (like Elmer's) will work, but it doesn't make a very strong bond and it is not waterproof.I am looking for a glue that will dry clear and colorless that will bond glass to paper and paper to a magnet.
There is a new product available at Michael's
called Fushion. It will bond anything to almost anything.
Super Glue will bond anything. You can also try Elmers glue. Hope this helps.
