Good afternoon, it's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!
Here in Australia that means beautiful sunshine, great food and drinks,
late evenings and catching up with family and friends.
The layout I'm sharing today is a photo taken on Christmas day last year –
here in Melbourne it was 36°!
I used these Helmar adhesives:
Helmar Super Tac Glue
Helmar Fabric Glue
Helmar Scrap Dots
and these paper-crafting products:
Pink Paislee Oh My Heart collection
Pink Paislee Turn the Page collection
Pink Paislee Summer Lights collection
Cocoa Vanilla Studios Bohemian Dream flair
Cocoa Vanilla Studios wood veneer
Spotlight embellishments
Amy Tangerine ephemera
The Craft Stall ephemera
Fundamentals Doilies
Kaisercraft cardstock
Remarks alpha's
Water colours
Washi tape
I wanted my layout to be fun and bright, it was such a hot day
with a lot of laughs. I was taking a selfie with my Mum, and my
son, daughter and sister all jumped in. I chose to use the colours
of our Christmas cracker hats, I wanted unconventional colours
for this fun photograph.I started off with water colours smudged
across the page,adding the pretty papers and photograph with
Helmar Super Tac glue.
To apply the embellishments I used a few different products.
I used Helmar Super Tac Glue on the title which kept lifting. I very
carefully used a Helmar scraper (so handy) to apply some glue
to the alpha's so they wouldn't move.
Next I added some ribbon with Helmar Fabric Glue
And for the flair I used Helmar Scrap Dots, it works so well on the
inside of the flair so it doesn't fall off the page.
Again I used the Helmar scraper to apply a tiny bit of Helmar Super Tac Glue
to attach the gorgeous Christmas lights.
I thoroughly enjoyed creating this Christmas layout with Helmar's brilliant adhesives.
Here's the finished layout, hope it gives you some Christmas inspiration to create.
Wishing you a very Merry and safe Christmas. See you all in the new year!
