Hi guys and welcome to my first ever post for the Helmar Creative Team!
I am so excited to be able to share my creations and crafting adventure with you!
For my first post I have created a set of 4 paper tole cards using 2 of my most favourite Helmar Products the Helmar Scrap Dots and also the Helmar 450 Quick Drying Glue.
Okay – onto my cards!
First off, I have fussy cut out my paper tole images from my paper tole sheet.
Next I have used a stylis with a largish ball head and a foam mat to shape my flowers by rolling the stylus on the back of the cut outs, a crafting tip is to use soap on the stylus which allows the ball to glide over the paper smoothly.
Next I have used the Scrap Dots to layer the paper tole pieces together, I like to squeeze out my Scrap Dots and then use a skewer to apply the glue to my pieces.
Next step was gathering some matching card stock, embossing folders and dies from my collection.
I have then gone on to add some lace trims and pearl strips to my card fronts using Helmar 450 Quick Drying Glue.
Assemble the card fronts by attaching the paper tole flowers to the cards.
I hope you have been inspired to give paper tole work a try!
'til next time – Keep Crafting!
