Hello crafty friends!! I'm so happy and excited to be back for another term with this amazing company! My project for this month I had actually made something since the beginning of the month but I had forgotten to take pics of the process!! I was so upset but I will be making another one of the same for myself as the one I had made I gave to my sister. But the project I bring to you all today is something just as special. I made this from a newly favorite YouTuber from Spain! It is something that can be made for a swap, any occasion, but I thought since its almost Mother's Day that it would make a very special gift .
For this project I thought I'd use the Helmar Premium Craft Glue since I was not only adhering paper but lace but Prima flower, small silk ribbon bows and more. This is why I like using this adhesive because you only need this to do one project! This glue goes a very long way when thinly applied as shown below in my photos where I used this glue.
The paper I used for this was Portrait of a Lady from Graphic 45 as well as the sticker sheet. I used a textured colored card stock from We R Memory Keepers 12x12 Colored Variety Pack. It measures 6 x 6 1/4 so it can be easily mailed in a bubble mailer.
This photo folio has (5) 4x6 photo mats in the center. I had also added a small pocket with some tags from the collection. On the 2 sides that open I also added a small pocket on each side with additional tags.
The tutorial I used was very simple although I did do some different measurements on the photo mats and I also made additional changes . I will be making this during a "Live on YouTube " on Wednesday May 1st @ 11am MST on my YouTube Channel so I hope you all will be able to join me, if you miss it, I hope you are able to see it when you can and give this project a try. I think its a super cute personalized photo folio for mother's , grandmother's, etc. Show that special lady in your life how special she is.
On a final note I would like to also say "WELCOME" to the newest members of the Helmar Creative Team. You are going to love working with these great products and very professional people that we can go to for any questions we might have. I also do hope that you will join me on Wed. May 1st. I am so excited to share this with you.
If you have any questions regarding this or would like to join me to make this, I will be looking forward to hearing from you. So with that said I want to Thank-You for reading my blog post today and I hope to make live or video tutorials showing you all of the projects I have prepped for the next 5 months of my term. See you all on Wed!! ~Hugs~
