There are tons of prizes at stake, so be sure you leave comments on all of the blogs along the way.

I am featuring Helmar Foam Zapdots and Helmar Professional Acid Free Glue on my projects. I love the levels of dimension that the zapdots allow me to achieve. The acid free glue is specially made for book binding and doesn't leave my projects feeling stiff.

I traced one of the the ghost pages from a Nikki Sivils chipboard album to create this Happy Howl-O-Ween card. I inked strips of white cardstock and used Professional Acid Free glue to randomly place them across the card. I used foam Zapdots on a few of the strips to add dimension.

For this Frankenstein card, I used foam Zapdots to pop up the eyelids and nose for dimension. To create the hair, I used Martha Stewart's icicle punch and black cardstock.

Inside of the card reads: "Wishing You A Monster-rific Halloween".

This last project was created for one of Helmar's Preferred Partners, Purple Cows. I used the 2-in-1 trimmer along with Partner Products from Cosmo Cricket, Clear Scraps, Clearsnap, magic mesh to scrap these photos of my son from last Halloween.

I used more foam zapdots to give the bat a little lift.

I even added in a little 450 Quick Dry--it's perfect for adhering acrylic elements.
