Hi Everyone and welcome to Sundays on the
Really Reasonable Ribbon Blog. Just to let all of you hopefuls know, we will be announcing the Design Team on October 27th.
Today I've got a few projects to share using the Helmar Adhesives available at the
Store. I, like many of you, had my go to adhesives that I thought worked for everything. I rarely strayed from those. Then I was given the opportunity to work with Helmar products and I'd never go back. First a project showing you the
Zapdots. You can achieve a similar look by using
Pom-Pom and
Crochet Lace for the trim.
Zapdots is the perfect dimensional dot for all of your crafty needs. They come in 3 colors (black, white and clear) 2 different sizes and 2 different shapes. These little dots have serious
sticking power, so try some the next time you grab some amazing ribbon from the
store.
Next a project that focuses on the
Liquid Scrap Dots. Many of you know that I call this stuff
Heaven in a Tube and I tell ya, it is a fitting name. This card also uses the
Jute String in White
Look at all of the different layers that are created. All you have to do is add
Liquid Scrap Dots onto a piece then press down to the dimension you need. Easy Peasy. Here is a different projects close up, so you can see the true dimension that
Liquid Scrap Dots creates.
And lastly, the best way to adhere ribbon to a project is with
Helmar Quick Fix Adhesive Runner. Super easy to use and it has a very strong hold. When I create pleating on my projects with ribbon,
this is the product I use. This card also used the
1 1/4" Black Silk Ribbon.
Take a look at the Helmar projects that
we carry. Try them and you will see that they are a staple for your crafting space. Thanks for stopping by today.
Toodles
