One Door Opens – Mixed Media layout

Jen Matott here to share one of my layouts using lots of fun texture and materials.  I love that Helmar products hold just about ANYTHING onto any surface. This page used lots of different adhesives from Helmar.  I started with applying papers using the Quickfix Adhesive Runner.  This little baby is perfect for scrapbook papers and they stay put!

I added texture paste through a large dot stencil and then sprayed with Faber-Castell Design Memory Crafter Gelato mists that I made.  Once it dried, I added other embellishments with more Helmar adhesives.

Jen1212DoorOpens4These cute little banner pieces and vellum banner shapes were added with Helmar Quickdry 450 adhesive.  This is my absolute FAVORITE glue!  I can use it on anything and it holds … but the best is that it is clear so I could use it on the vellum.  I also used it on the resin angel and wooden door embellishment.  It is so versatile with so many materials.

Jen1212DoorOpens6I used twine for the banner string and applied a thin line of Acid Free Glue and then put the twine on the line.  It sets clear but goes on white so that I can see where to put the twine without worrying that it will show after it dries.

I also used the Acid Free to adhere the cardboard letters to the paper.  Jen1212DoorOpens5Here is a close up of the twine and texture paste. I love that there is a perfect adhesive for any material or any technique that you need for your pages!
