Core'dinations has teamed up with Helmar to bring you some really fun projects this week!
I had so much fun distressing and layering and adding texture to this layout with Core cardstock and a variety of Helmar adhesives. I have to say I am now a HUGE fan of their Fray Stoppa and Scrap Dots.
I had a left over piece of pleated fabric from a recent sewing project that I
wanted to use for a layout. The frayed fibers were trimmed from the fabric and
Fray Stoppa was applied to the raw edges. After five minutes, the fabric was
completely dry and ready to adhere to the layout. I used Scrap Dots liquid
adhesive to squeeze several gooey dabs of adhesive along the back side of the
pleated fabric and adhered it to the corner of the layout. This adhesive is my
new best friend! I love using fabric and fibers on my paper craffting projects,
and Scrap Dots is strong and thick enough to stay where it is put and dries
clear and quick. I also used Scrap Dots to adhere the title banner pieces to the
fabric. The glue is gooey and flexible when applied, so I had plenty of "wiggle
room" to straighten the banner pieces that landed on the layout a little
askew.
Make sure to check out the Core'dinations and Helmar blogs and leave them some comment love to score your chance to win some seriously cool goodies!
Gorgeous layout of your gorgeous daughters! I love Core'dinations. Did you use an embossed folder on the pink sheet? If so (or if not), what is it?
