Elmers works well with classroom craft staples like construction paper, popsicle sticks, tissue paper and more. 

Mix a little bit of water with glue to make a paintable paste. Liquid starch will also do the trick. Paint some of the glue mixture on the paper, and then stick pieces of tissue paper on the glue.

Using tissue paper to add texture to mixed media pieces is easy to do. Either by scrunching it up before gluing to your support, or by gluing it down first, and then creating your texture upon it before it dries. Once dry, the texture can be emphasised further by rubbing lightly over it with chalk or oil pastels.
