Good morning my beautiful fellow crafters!
Welcome to the HELMAR BLOG HOP!
You know I am always bragging up Helmar Glue
but let me tell you why....
You know I don't talk about the products that don't work for me
but the Helmar 450 Quick dry Adhesive is by far my favorite from day 1!
They did not even know who I was when I began using it,
I had nothing to do with Helmar but I loved their glue so much
I went crazy!
On this project you can see I used
Paper, wood, paint,metal, and acrylic...
you know why I love 450? Because I could use it all over this project
not changing glues or worrying about stopping!
I used the 450 to glue the paper on, 450 to glue the metal on,
and 450 to glue the acrylic onto the back, and for the butterfly onto the
acrylic so it would appear to be floating!
SOOO...do you want to win a bottle of 450 Quick Dry??
This bottle?? Well leave me a comment, if you have used Helmar tell me
why you love it! If you have not and have a question feel free to ask!
Don't forget there are giveaways all along this blog hop
and a HUGE giveaway at the last stop (which is next)
your next stop is the last stop HELMAR

Hope you felt inspired, hope you had fun with me today!

Well, Pinky I have NOT used Helmar, but your post intrigued me. Take a look at this layout

It sounds like Helmar could have saved me some trouble! Thanks for the chance to win some of it!
Beautiful projects Pinky! I love the fact that you used only the Helmars glue for everything on your project! I would love to win some! Thanks for the chance!
I have not used it but I'm going to buy it. You have convinced me that I need to try it and when I do, I'm sure I'll be back to Thank you big time!!
BTW....That project rocks!!
I have never used it but I do have a question. I have a friend who started using the fabritac glue for her papercrafting. Does the helmar get stringy like the fabric tac? Like when I used her fabric tac when you stop squeezing and try to move the bottle away from the paper it strings(kind of like hot glue does?)
I haven't used it.. but would love to win it so I could try it........ *BJ* from the Cricut MB
I absolutely love your project! Not only do I use the Graphic45 papers all the time I have now used the Helmar adhesives. I too love the Helmar 450 QD and I also love and use frequently the liquid scrap dots. Boy once it is glued, IT IS GLUED! Terrific product.
Thanks for the heads up! Sandra
I haven't used it either...in fact I hadn't heard of it until you started using it and talking about it. Eager to try it now!
Gosh, I was just looking for something yesterday to substitute for bookbinders glue - I bet this would work!
Thanks for the chance to win!

Pinky, I have not used Helmar glue. Actually, until now, I've never heard of it!! Sure sounds like you can use it on anything! Is it so?...can it be?...then I def need that!!!
Thank you for stopping by my little blog, and leaving your comment. Hearing about what you have gone through, has certainly helped put things in perspective!! So very glad that I stopped in and left you a comment!! Thanks again!!
I didn't know this glue existed but if it works on all those materials, I am going to try it!
now ... where can I buy it?
I have not used Helmar glue because I can't find it in my area! I've looked and looked! I heard about Helmar on your blogs and a couple of others too and have been dying to try it!

Hey Ladies, to answer a couple questions for ya.
Helmar where to buy?? On the side of the Helmar blog there is a few links to buy the glue, if you email me personally I will recommend a specific site that is the cheapest in shipping :) Recommended by several of my friends and they ship right away!!!!!!
Does the glue get stringy, well quite honestly Heather, a little bit BUT I find IF you take the bottle and wipe it slightly on the item you are gluing the string goes away. I mean you cannot "pour" it on, you have to wipe it on then there is not string.
Yes, it works on paper, metal and all surfaces I have found I love it. I even used it on a wooden pencil with a clay elephant on it for my son because he broke it.
Love your project!
I haven't had a chance to try Helmar 450 but would sure like to.
This is GORGEOUS, Pinky! I am starting to dive into vintage altered art and am LOVING it.
I have used Helmar glue... thanks to a tip from you on your lace flower videos. I love the schtuff.
Inky Smiles!

Would love to win some Helmar as we don't get it here in SA...how sad!
OK, girlie, this is just one crazy gorgeous project, I tell you!!!! Not only do I love Graphic 45, but I am in love with the 450 glue, too, it sure sticks down and dries quick!!! You are amazing!!!
Another great project. Love all the texture you add to them. I am having a difficult time keeping my heavier embellishments to stick. Would love to try the glue.
GORGEOUS, Pinky!! I have heard you speak so highly of this Helmar glue, but I am the type of person who likes "TO SEE, TO BELIEVE"! SO, hopefully I will win me some! Thanks so much for the chance!

Haven't used Helmar but from everything you say and I see in your projects, it's definitely one that I have to have!
Blessings,
I've never tried any of them, but I'd love to!
If I could only find Helmars here in Bumpkinville I would be in seventh heaven. I have used it but ran out after I moved here. YOur project looks great.

I love how you have used the same adhesive for your entire project - it certainly makes life a lot easier. YOU have already converted me to this wonderful product (your pleated ribbon tutorial) and I am already on my 2nd bottle :o)

Stunning, Pinky. Simply stunning. Love the vintage feel to it.
That sounds like the perfect glue and I adore how you used those gorgeous G45 papers with your 450 glue. Fun!
I have not tried this yet. But you have raved about it and now I want some. Maybe this will be my lucky day. Where do you buy it?
Love the vintage feel to your sign!
I think I need to get some of Helmar's products. Great project!
Pinky I had to stop in to see your project. Love it as always! Beautiful. Always loving your work.

Love Helmar 450 glue...have used it on lots of projects where I need to have a few minutes to adjust things...it's a great glue...really sticks!!
Pinky does it again!!! Not only do I love your project I love me some 450! I bought it because I saw you making pleated ribbon on a video you did and mentioned how awesome it was! Got two bottles of it and I am almost threw one of them! I use it for eveything!
Pinky, this is just beautiful. i love how you make it look so simple, yet so elegant. This is one of my fav's and I am now reminded why. Wonderful for all types of project and easy to use. Awesome vintage piece! TFS!
Hey Pinky -- I am shouting -- I LOVE 450!!!!!!
Pinkee, this is a very sweet vintagy project. Love that you use your adhesive to the fullest as that is kinda what I do too .. haven't had an opp yet to use 450 but am hearing lots of good stuff about it .. would love to win a bottle :)

Great project. This has been a great hop seeing all of the wonderful things that can be done with Helmar products.
Hey fellow CowGirl Pinky~ LOVE this project girl! I LOVE how you made the butterfly 'float'! Great job:) I've never used Helmar, but after seeing you girls awesome projects...I'm all about it, and can't wait to give some a try!
I SO need that glue for sure. I have never tried Helmar before but I am on the look for a good adhesive to substitute the one I am using right now.
Your project has me convinced
Another great project idea & another fun product to try. There is nothing worse than creating a fun project only to have the glue not hold. It's nice to see that one glue can do it all. My list is growing of all these fun Helmar products to look for here in Ontario, Canada.
you seem to love that glue Pinky! I will have to try it sometime. I'm always struggling with liquid adhesives!
Morning Pinky! Your project for this hop is so pretty & vintagey. I have never used this project & am thinking that it is a "must try!"
I love how your butterfly looks like it's floating, no messy goop sticking out!! ;)
This is just one stunning and inspiring project. I just love all the different elements you used and how this adhesive works for all of them. I have to try this product. How can a crafter live without this? Thanks
Hi Pinky, your work is beautiful. I have never tried that glue before. Would love to though.

I love Helmar 450. This is one Helmar project I have used and love that it dries clear. I needed an adhesive that glue fast, but not too fast and one that dried clear and one that dried strong to hold two pieces of transparency together. Helmar 450 was the best I tried. It now proudly sits on my adhesive shelf right next to my desk. I would love a chance to win some more b/c I know I'll be running out of it.
that.is.GORGEOUS!!! you are so talented!!!!
Soooooooooooo cute! Love the vintage prettiness!
Sooooooo pretty!!!! Love the colours & vintage prettiness. Thanks for the chance to win!
An amazing project! And I now know what adhesive to buy. Thanks so much for educating me!
Oh boy! This is so so so cute!
I have never tried this brand. Haven't heard of it actually. I think I'll try it though, especially since you recommend it.
Love the projects that you post.
I love your project and your blog. This glue must really be something if you can use it across all those different types of objects, I'd love to win it!
love your projects! thanks for the inspiration and the chance to win!
oh quick dry...that is right up my alley b/c i am so impatient! LOL! love your project!
Thank you Pinky for the cute project. Love how you have used so many different materials and adhered it using Helmar.Gotta give this product a try.

I haven't used Helmar glues yet, but I love the fact that you used one glue for all the different additions to your project. And if it's quick-drying, that's a plus.
Susan
I love your project....and I am so inspired to try and find some Helmar products! Thanks :)
I am so amazed that you did that entire project with ONE glue! Gotta get me some, love your blog, love your scrappy style, love Helmar! Will be back to visit again- for sure!
I haven't been able to find any Helmar products in my area (MICHIGAN) but have been wanting to try them. I have heard so many good things about their glues. Thanks for the opportunity to win the 450 quick dry adhesive.
I like what you said, no changing glues mid project, sounds like just what I need :)
Beautiful project!!
Beautiful project, and would love the chance to win the adhesive.
Great project. Would love some of this adhesive.
I've never tried this but I would really love to. Awesome project!
Great project! I'd love to give this stuff a try!
What a great project, and a glue you can use for everything. I haven't tried Helmar products yet, but I'm sure I will be soon.
What a great project great blog hop
Hey Pink{ee}-love the lovely vintage and I can honestly say I have tried tons of adhesives and a quick drying one is a MUST!
I love using Helmar products because they are so easy to use and you can always count on them to get the job done that you want them to. Unfortuantely I only have one Helmar product, but would certainly love to have more to use!!
Thanks for a chance to win Helmar glue!! Ever since you started blogging about it, I have wanted to buy some!!! But where?!?! Gorgeous project!!
Pinky, I met you last year in Cave City. Thanks for giving us a chance to win. I have not tried these products but it sounds like I need to think about getting some for the store. Would love to have you visit us at Scrappuccino.
I'd love to Lola but I don't know anyone to get me in LOL
