I usually use Anita's Tacky Glue or something similar but you will have to hold the bow on for a short while until it starts to stick. I have also used double sided tape before which also works. Make sure that the piece of double sided tape is big enough to cover the centre and an area of the bows. If you are sticking a bow to glitter card the only thing that will work is pinflair glue gel.

I use a glue gun or a tiny glue dot. I don't have any luck with PVA glue

I love pinflair glue gel as its in a syringe you can use the tiniest dot or add it to a cocktail stick, this it does take an hour to set but will never fall off xx
