Hello!  I hope you are enjoying our Glue Arts week so far.

Today I am going to share a layout I made using the Glue Arts glider pro, micro adhesive squares and half inch adhesive squares.

If time saving appeals to you then the Glider pro is the tool you need.  I love my double sided tape but by the time you cut a piece, stick it down and then remove the backing you could already be done if you were using the Glider pro.  It is so easy to use.

But if you thought I loved the Glider Pro, it is quite possible I love the adhesive squares even more.  They are perfect for adding small embellishments to your page, like buttons.  Press the button to the adhesive square and lift, then add it to your page.  So easy!

The other great thing about the adhesive square is that you can layer them to add subtle height, without going to the full on height of foam tape.

But if you do want height then reach for your Raise n’s.  They are a great size and add a nice bit of height to your embellishment.

And here is the completed page.

The Glue Arts adhesives made it so easy to create a new layered chipboard piece.

The adhesive squares were perfect to use when creating this banner.  I find double sided tape a bit frustrating on these because they don’t hold well enough and liquid adhesive is a bit too fiddly and messy, but the adhesive squares hold tight and leave no mess.  Perfect!

Alison Callcott!

“Heh!  I’m Alison but my friends call me Alz.  I’m 41 and live in Melbourne with my husband Geoff and our 15 years old ‘fur baby’ Max.  I’ve been scrapping for over four years now.  I don’t have a particular style, although I do like layers, using various techniques, and getting a bit messy.  Not having children my scrapping subjects vary from Max, Geoff and I, and friends’ children to family history and travel.  When not scrapping I love to travel, go to the movies, shop for home décor and furniture (we’re building a new house!!), read, and hang out with friends”.

Our first Guest Designer for March is…

Helen Westen

“My name is Helén and I’m a 38 year old scrapper from Sweden. I’m married to a wonderful man and a mother to three equally wonderful children, who are my main scrapbooking subjects. I work as a registered nurse in elderly care, but in my spare time there’s nothing I love more than keeping busy with a scrapbooking project! It really is like therapy and I love being part of the scrapbooking world!

My style would probably be described as vintage, as I have a passion for distress ink, scraped edges and lots of layering! I love using lots of embellishments, creating a 3D feel to my projects. I love the diversity of scrapbooking and I’ll make anything from layouts and cards to altered art. I’m always willing to try new techniques!

I am so excited and honored to be one of this month’s guest designers here at Kaisercraft! I love anything Kaisercraft and these two new lines are no exceptions!”
