My mom said she had the same problem so she decided to try "craft bond" gluesticks instead. She has had the same blocks on her counter for over 6 months and they aren't wrinkled at all.
Here's how you do it:
Before:
Take a knife and carefully peel the paper off of the block.
If you are careful and patient it will come off very easily.
Use This kind of gluestick:
It must be repositionable! Smooth out the paper and press down pretty hard until glue is dry.
Ta-da! No more wrinkles!
You can buy the gluesticks at walmart... and probably other places too. There are 3 kinds of the gluesticks so make sure you get repositionable!
We will be buying these gluesticks for craft night from now on, they are a lot more expensive but well worth the cost!

LOVE those blocks!
I am not sure what you have used but I also do lots of blocks and I have found that if you use the scrapbook glue rollers they work good to and there are no wrinkles. This might help. That is what I use and no one has ever said they wrinkled.
