Helmar Happy Fathers Day Hop

Welcome to the Helmar Happy Fathers Day Hop. Today we are so excited to share with you a variety of fantastic masculine projects. We've put our Helmar arsenal to good use and want to share with you some inspiration for those last minute Fathers Day gifts.

If you have been following along, you should have hopped here from Julie's blog. If not, hop on back to the Helmar Blog and enjoy. Make sure to leave comments along the way, because we will have prizes up for grabs. And if the Man in your life is super lucky, We may even send him a Helmar prize pack too.

Today I wanted to share with you an art project I created using Helmar 450 Quick Dry Adhesive and Liquid Scrap Dots. These arrowheads were picked up by my husbands grandfather who recently passed. My husbands family wanted a way to display them, so I thought some shadow boxes would be perfect.

I created the papers by using a leather looking paper and distressing it with a combination of Vanilla Breeze Glimmer Mist and Tea Dye Distress Ink. I then applied it to the backing of the shadowbox using 450 Quick Dry Adhesive.

 For adhering the arrowheads, Liquid Scrap Dots is perfect!!! Love how this turned out and I couldn't have done it without my Helmar Arsenal!!!

Thanks so much for stopping by. Now hop on back to the Helmar blog and leave one last comment. If you get lost along the way, below you will find the links for the order of the hop.

And now, for the inspiration!!!!

Now here is my National Scrapbooking Day Hop Project for you!

Each one of us that scrapbooks, is an artist. We share ourselves on paper every time we create. I wanted to create a layout that shared a little of my passion for poetry, so here it is..The Road Less Traveled

The journal tag is from the Noteworthy A paper, which I fussy cut. I added a little Aged Mahogany distress ink to it as well, which matches the color of the Sincerely collection perfectly.

 I love the font of the Alpha Stickers from the Sincerely collection. So beautiful!!!

 Here is the complete layout. I added some True Blood Glimmer Mist to the flowers to match them to the layout as well. Yup, the Sincerely collection is my favorite for sure.

Now it is your turn to leave a comment and let me know what you are doing for NSD. One lucky commenter will receive a gift of goodies from me to celebrate!!! After you've left your comment, hop on over to Kristin's Blog and see what she has created to celebrate National Scrapbooking Day with all of you.

Thanks for stopping by and Happy NSD to you
