BAL mosaic fix will do the job well....I think the paper is on the face of the tiles...and you will not need spacers......once set, wet the paper and it will peel off..........goodluck mate...........

Just wanted to add that when you're fixing glass tiles, as well as natural stone tiles, you generally want the adhesive to be white, not gray. If it's gray, it might shine through in a not so pretty way.
