Is it okay to use regular white glue for scrapbooking?

Scrapbooking Adhesive

White glue (Elmer's) is not recommended for a scrapbooking adhesive for a couple of reasons. First, it tends to make the paper buckle or crease. Next, although it is non-toxic and acid-free it tends to get brittle with age. Finally, it is messy and hard to work with.

There are so many kinds of scrapbooking adhesives available at your local scrapbook supply store that you don't have to spend a lot to get a great adhesive for your scrapbooking needs.
