Hi everyone Beck Beattie here with a layout to celebrate the boys in my life. Truth be told, I don't like flowers on a boy layout, and I love that this challenges me to come up with different ways to embellish my page.
I have recently been enjoying including more photos on my layouts by ways of them expanding, and I hope you find some inspiration in it. This layout looks like it has only two photos right?
No….
Four!
The twine on the layout was adhered using some Helmar 450 Quick Dry in a fine nozzle bottle. It isn't even seen and the twine isn't going anywhere!
My Helmar 450 Quick Dry and Acid Free Glue made putting all these layers together simple!
Check out the dimension on those bunting flags… thanks Helmar Liquid Scrap Dots!
and the arrows…
and even more layers thanks to Helmar Acid Free glue
I did use a great deal of Helmar Acid Free glue to put this layout together as it's paper to paper bond is unbelievable. I wanted to make sure that the open card piece never comes away from the layout as it was only adhered on the sides and bottom to create a pocket for the journal tag… so Helmar Acid Free glue was an easy choice.
Well I hope you enjoyed my share today.
Happy Creating
Helmar Design Team
