Hello there, Sue here for the very first time!
I'm so happy to be on the Helmar creative team. For my very first post I wanted to create a scrapbooking layout of the day I received the email that I had been accepted onto the team. I completed it using Helmar Professional Acid Free Glue on the whole layout as my amazing goodie box hadn't arrived!
Here's what I started with

I started with Kaisercraft’s Dream Big paper Illusions
I used my sewing machine and a black fine liner to make a border and then sprayed ink randomly onto the paper; I glued the patterned paper and my picture to the middle of the border.
Then I started to add embellishments.
Because I wanted to use Helmar Professional Acid Free Glue on the whole layout I made my own dimensional ‘sticker’ to make a few things stand out. I folded a small piece of cardstock and glued it together and then glued it to the embellishments, it worked really well.
I’m really happy with how everything turned out using just this sweet adhesive.
I hope you have enjoyed my first project!
