Helmar + Clearsnap: So Happy Together Day 3


All this week we've teamed up with our friends at Helmar to share inspiring projects, ideas, and more using our inks +Helmar adhesives. 

Be sure to stop by the Helmar Facebook Page and say "hello" today!! Please let them know that your friends at Clearsnap sent you over :) Scroll down to the end of this post to enter to win today's prize, our Colorbox Limited Edition Chalk ink in Butter and Fawn, Colorbox Limited Edition Pigment ink in Pool and Turtle, and Rollagraph Jumbo Design Wheel in Crackle!

Today Creative Team Member Megan Aaron has a fun card for you using several of our brand new limited edition inks along with some fabulous Helmar dimensional adhesive foam tape! 


I started out with a kraft cardstock base and stamped it with a Hero Arts grid stamp using the new limited edition Chalk ink in Fawn. Next, I masked the center square and used the crackle rollagraph wheel with some limited edition pigment ink in Pool along the edges. After that was dry I used my sewing machine to add a border between the two stamped areas.
I die cut the leaves from green cardstock and then stamped them with a Hero Arts stamp using Limited Edition Pigment ink in Turtle.
For the main sentiment panel, I carefully inked the stamp in two different ink colors, because I was too lazy too make a mask. The balloon is stamped in the new Limited Edition Chalk ink in Butter and the sentiment is done with the Pool pigment ink to match the border. 

I matted the sentiment block on another piece of green cardstock, using Helmar Zapdots foam adhesive to give it some dimension. I also added a zapdot under a couple of the leaves on the top branch for some dimension there.

    oh....this is cute....Well I dont think I can choose a favorite...I love them all. There is just something about each one that draws me to them. I love the mixed media feel of Suzannes layout and it is unbelieveable what Jennifer did with pages of a book. Then today Megan made a great card. I love them all. Wonderful job ladies...
