Happy Memorial Day, everyone! Katie here, today I'm sharing a Memorial Day themed layout I created.
I used photos of my Great Grandfather who served in WWII on this layout. I wanted to create a layout to remember him by.
I created the background by diecutting stars, and doodling the starbursts. After that I brushed on matte medium to add texture and added color with various red and blue Gelatos. To seal the gelatos while I finished the layout, I sprayed the background with Helmar's Crystal Kote Fixative Spray. It seals the messy mediums, which is awesome.
I wanted to attach a couple of pieces of flair, but the flair didn't have a back to apply adhesive on, so I squirted some Helmar Liquid Scrap Dots onto the back, which worked really well!
I also used the Helmar Liquid Scrap Dots to create the 3d center of my red poppy. I applied some of the adhesive and then sprinkled glitter over top and let that dry.
Over all I'm extremely pleased with the layout. I love the multiple uses for the Scrap Dots adhesive!
Supplies used- Crystal Kote Fixative, Liquid Scrap Dots, Quick Fix Adhesive Runner
