Remembering our American Heroes with Helmar

 
Hi, Veronica here to share with you a Veteran's Day card to honor our American Heroes for Veterans Day on 11/11.

To make this very special card today – I used Helmar 450 Quick Dry Adhesive   and  Helmar Zap Dots

I usually create in my head first then once my design is decided I gather my materials and what I will use.  I knew I wanted an American Flag as my background so I went out and bought this awesome Tim Holtz "Flag Sketch" stamp.  I then embossed it with red embossing powder.

I could not find the image of a soldier I wanted in my stash of stickers or chipboard.  I was not going to let it go so I started to search for free clipart images and found the soldier image I wanted.  I used the image as a template and fussy cut it out on navy cardstock.

I used the Helmar Zap Dots to highlight the soldier on my card.

I then used the Helmar 450 Quick Dry Adhesive to adhere my title (sticker) onto the cardstock and then onto my card.  I used this glue to put together all the layers of cardstock (red, white and blue) for my patriotic layered card.

I added some felt stars that I had die cut and added one of my favorite embellishments to use – Ribbon.  Yes, I am known for how much ribbon I hoard.
