Today I am going to share with you a quick little layout I created of my little boy and his love for hanging in the garden with dad and picking strawberries.
You can easily see how this one has come together using some punchinella to create the whitehoneycomb look randomly across the layout. But what I really want to share with you is just howversatile Helmar's V2 adhesive is. The layout is created using only paper (by Echo Park) and chipboard pieces (by Scrapware). You can easily choose your favourite Helmar adhesive to stick all the paper down, from the Helmar Professional Acid free, to Helmar Premium craft glue, tape runner or the trusted 450 Quick Dry. There was really only one adhesive for the fine chipboard alphas though, and that was the Helmar V2 adhesive. While it was predominately created for vellum, don't be afraid to experimentwith it's use. It is great for chipboard pieces as it provides a great all over cover and won't bleed out from underneath. The raised chipboard pieces (the frog, clouds and 'little' word) were all adhered withHelmar liquid Scrap dots to give them a little extra height.
I hope you take the opportunity to explore with your different Helmar adhesives finding more 'bestuses'.
Happy Creating

Love this page Beck. Your DS is too cute. I must admit I have not really strayed too far from vellum with the V2....thanks for the info...I will certainly try it on thinner alphas!!!!
