A day in the city…

 
Several weeks ago I saw a magazine cover that I thought was so fun and full of inspiration so I saved it. I didn't know what I would use it for but I just knew that I would eventually find something. Well this past Sunday I spent the day down in Chicago with family and friends, we went to see the Lion King. My husband took several photos of Emma and I and when I saw the pictures I knew then what I would do with it.

Here is the layout that I created using the magazine cover as my example

Emma is my cousins daughter and the inspiration for many of my layouts. She is as sweet as can be and I try to spend time with her as often as I can. We call our time together "Dates". This is why I titled my layout as I did.

For this layout I used several Helmar USA products. Each one serves a special purpose to insure that everything I have placed on my cardstock will stay permanently. For the pieces of Crate Paper patterned paper I used Helmar USA Quick-Fix Adhesive Runners. Behind the photo on the left I have some hidden journaling so this required a heavier adhesive so I used the Helmar USA 450 Quick Dry Adhesive. The photo on the right was popped up using Helmar USA Zapdots.

I hope you find inspiration from my layout as I found from the magazine cover.

Happy HELMAR USA creating!!
