Helmar & VLVS! Inspiration {Glenda & Ellen}

Welcome to day FOUR of our week with Helmar.

All week long we're sharing projects between the Helmar blog and VLVS! blog.
I hope you've been commenting! We'll give away some glue AND rubber to two lucky commenters! (One from our blog, one from theirs)

The first project for today is this one by Glenda!

Glenda is our resident art journaler and she is SUPERB. She's used the lovely Angel weeping over pillar stamp, the Row of stars stamp, the 6 Hexagon background stamp, the Crime scene tape stamp and the Star pin stamp by Viva Las VegaStamps! as well as the Helmar 450 Quick Dry Adhesive and Decoupage and Craft Paste.
Check out Glenda's blog for a HOW TO!

 Then we have Ellen with this fabulous altered box:

She has used Helmar's Decoupage and Craft Paste to adhere all the paper to the box. She also used VLVS!'s Ultra High Gloss Embossing Powder and the Zebra Painting Stamp. Check out Ellen's blog for a bit more info!
