Helmar Hammer time...

...Gidday from sunny Western Australia  - Leeann Pearce with you today...I've got a couple of little tips I would lOVE to share with you.

- Plus my very first post right here on the "Helmar Blog" - YAY!!!!

This layout "2 minute noodles" was create using all HELMAR ADHESIVES...

- Helmar 450 quick dry

- Helmar scrap dots

- For my first TIP I have used Helmar 450 quick dry - I call this the "stick and rip"

TIP 1: Take a strip of pattern paper and using Helmar 450 quick dry squeeze a line down the centre of the pattern paper strip and then stick it to a scrap bit of card. Allow it to dry. Once dry grab the end and rip it off the card. The end result shabby curly paper. The result is not always the same each time. But I like how it just forms it own curls. And it gives me texture and dimension.

TIP: 2 I love to add lots and lots of lumpy bumpiness to my projects. And it's important that it stays there. Like my hair gel. It's not allowed to move. Stuck for good!

TIP:2 I have a mad love for embellishing too.... but sometimes they just don't stick enough. So this is where  Helmar Scrap Dots comes in handy! So grab your  Helmar scrap dots  and squeeze out a thick blob and then allow to sit like this for 10 - 15 minutes. So that it's a dry tacky but still enough stick to it, then add it to your page.Remember don't push done on it to hard otherwise you will lose your dimension.

...look there's the Helmar scrap dots blob.... one of the best thing about this is that it dry clear!!!!

So there you have it. Just a couple of tips for you I hope you enjoyed.

Thanks for popping by...
