HIYA Mixed Media Card

Hi, Margie here today! With Father’s Day tomorrow, I thought it would be fun to share a masculine-themed card, HIYA Card, today that would fit any occasion. Add a spritz of ink and a bold sentiment, you have yourself an impactful card!

HIYA Mixed Media Card by Margie Higuchi for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Create the HIYA Panel and Card Base

Fold a piece of 8.5 x 5.5 in. white cardstock in half to create a side fold A2-size (4.25 x 5.5 in.) card base. Trim the patterned paper to 4.25 x 5.5 in. to cover the card front and ink the edges with Distress Oxide Ink in Scorched Timber. Apply the E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips Dispenser to the back of the patterned paper card panel and adhere to the card base.

Designer’s Tip: Ink the edges of the patterned paper panel and card front with matching ink color. This helps to keep the edges uniform.

The Card Front Design

With Distress Oxide Spray in Scorched Timber, spritz the card panel for color and shine. When dried, add a film strip tape on the left side of the panel.

HIYA Sentiment

Die-cut the word “HIYA” with the 3D Foam Creative Sheets Small White. I used a bold font for a dynamic look. Center the letters onto the card front with a T-square ruler.

Wear Your Adhesive on the Outside with 3D Foam Creative Sheets

Remove the top liner of the first letter and place the bronze foil from the Metallic Transfer Foil Sheets Nature Colors set over the exposed adhesive. Make sure the color side is facing you and gently rub/tap the color into the letter. Remove the foil to reveal the color – beautiful! Reapply foil in missed areas. Repeat the foiling steps on the rest of the letters.

Sending Rainbows and Smiles Card

Hi, Jingle here today! I am excited to share a super cute Sending Rainbows and Smiles Card that is made extra special with Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L touches.

Sending Rainbows and Smiles Card by Jennifer Ingle for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

This card is loaded with both dimension and color! Let’s get started.

Die-cut Rainbows and Sentiment

Begin by die-cutting the various design elements you will use on your card. You will want to cut the rainbow several times, once in each color, to create your full rainbow. This is also a great time to dry emboss your background while you have the die-cut machine out!

Securing the Sentiment

Adhere the black sentiment to its white shadow using E-Z Dots® Permanent Dispenser. This prevents any adhesive from accidentally showing through those edges!

Sending Rainbows and Smiles Card by Jennifer Ingle for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Create Your Rainbow

To make the rainbow pop, you will want to use 3D Foam Strips. The strips are narrow and easy to bend just a bit where needed. Trim to shorter lengths to customize the strips for your die-cut elements.

Finish Up the Panel

Once the strips are in place, gently remove the backing, and carefully place it on the dry embossed panel. Using a combination of one strip of Crafty Foam Tape White 54ft and one strip of Crafty Power Tape Polybag 81ft, adhere the sentiment layered over the bottom of the rainbow. The two adhesives allow you to have the bottom on the panel and the top securely adhered to the rainbow, itself.

Next, use Crafty Foam Tape White 54ft to secure the panel to the card base.

A Bit of Sparkle

Finally, we are going to add a bit of sparkle to finish the design with something just a little unexpected. Add a butterfly from the 3D Foam Butterflies pack and sprinkle on some pink glitter to complete this super fun design!

Layered Earthy Layout

Hello scrappy friends! Tracy here, and today I have a fun Layered Earthy Layout to share. Here are all of the details on how I created it.

Layered Earthy Layout by Tracy McLennon for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Layered Earthy Layout Design Idea

Have you ever had a collection that you loved SO MUCH that you cling to each little bit of it that you have left? This is a layout that I created using a collection like that. I had this one full patterned paper background sheet and then just scraps and a lot of embellishments that I hadn’t used.

My first step for this layered earthy layout is to collect the larger background pieces. I cut the blue patterned paper to fit in the corner of the background.

Layered Earthy Layout by Tracy McLennon for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

The Starting Point

Using the blue patterned paper as a guide at this point, I added some cardstock stickers around it and ephemera using the Thin 3D Foam Squares Black Mix.

Layered Earthy Layout by Tracy McLennon for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Adding Elements for the WoW Factor

Next I added E-Z Runner® Grand Refillable Dispenser around the inside edges of the blue patterned paper and I adhered more floral ephemera around that border of the Layered Earthy Layout.

Layered Earthy Layout by Tracy McLennon for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Now it’s time to adhere that piece to the background using Crafty Foam Tape Black. Now you can see the definition between layers of this embellishment border.

Layered Earthy Layout by Tracy McLennon for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Adding the Photo

Attach the photo to the white cardstock mat using Creative Photo Corners Kraft. Add the matted photo to the layout using Crafty Foam Tape Black. Then add some ephemera pieces around the matted photo, also using Crafty Foam Tape Black.

Creating a Cluster

I decided to add a few embellishments to the top left-hand corner of the layout and used Crafty Foam Tape Black to add the “Go See Do” sticker. Add a burlap string bow to each of the tags on this layered earthy layout.

The final touches for this Layered Earthy Layout are just a few more sticker embellishments around the layout.

Red, White and Blue Hello Cards

Hi, everyone! Teri here and I have a few cards inspired by the upcoming 4th of July holiday in the United States. Celebrate with some Red, White, and Blue Hello Cards!

Red, White and Blue Hello Cards by Teri Anderson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Independence Day is a day I do not normally send out cards for, but I was inspired by the day itself to make some general themed-cards with a red, white and blue color combination.

Add Patterned Paper and Transfer Foil to a Card

Start by placing a panel of patterned paper at the bottom of a notecard. Place a strip of Premium Double-Sided Tape across the top of it. Apply Metallic Transfer Foil on top.

Red, White and Blue Hello Cards by Teri Anderson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Take a second strip of Premium Double-Sided Tape and place it across the top of the card. Cover up some of the foil you previously applied. I recommend for this step that you use a slightly darker color of foil for this step.

Red, White and Blue Hello Cards by Teri Anderson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Decorate with 3D Foam Stars and a Sentiment

Add several 3D Foam Stars to the card. Apply foil to them. Be sure to set the foil pretty side up onto them and then rub it firmly onto each one. If you miss a spot, don’t worry! Just grab your foil and try again. Embellish your design by adding few round sequins or gems to it. You can also follow my lead by mimicking the look of brads by taking 3D Foam Circles and adding foil to them!

Complete your card by stamping a sentiment on a strip of cardstock and adding it to the card.

I hope you are inspired by today’s tutorial to make a few non-holiday cards inspired by holiday color schemes. While today’s cards were inspired by the 4th of July, it would be fun challenge to make some general-themed cards inspired by Halloween, Christmas or, even, Easter.

Thanks so much for stopping by today!

Happy Creating!

Doggies Birthday Card

Hi everyone, Yvonne here with a super cute Doggies Birthday Card. This card is so easy to make that it’s also suitable for beginner cardmakers!

Doggies Birthday Card by Yvonne van de Grijp for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

For some fun details, I used the Wear Your Adhesive on the Outside technique. I would love to share how I made my card. I hope you will join me!

Top Card Panel

Start by stamping the dogs using black ink on white cardstock, and coloring them with coloring pencils. Fussy cut the images. To create some depth on my Doggies Birthday Card, I used Thin 3D Foam Squares White Mix for the right dog, and 3D Foam Squares White Mix for the left two dogs. Adhere them on a lilac card panel. Then adhere the party hats with 3D Foam Squares White Mix.

Doggies Birthday Card by Yvonne van de Grijp for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Card Base

Mat the lilac card panel of the Doggies Birthday Card on a red card panel using the E-Z Runner® Grand Refillable Dispenser. Then adhere to a white card base.

Doggies Birthday Card by Yvonne van de Grijp for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Wear Your Adhesive on the Outside with E-Z Runner Stars

To create a fun element on the Doggies Birthday Card, I adhered some E-Z Runner® Stars Refillable Dispenser on the card front. To add shine, I used different colors in the Metallic Transfer Foil Sheets Pastel Colors for the stars. Make sure the colored side is facing up. This technique, making your adhesive shine, is called Wear your Adhesive on the Outside.

Doggies Birthday Card by Yvonne van de Grijp for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

For the finishing touch, adhere a Happy Birthday sentiment on a red banner and then to a white banner with the E-Z Runner® Grand Refillable Dispenser. Lastly, I adhered the banner onto the card using 3D Foam Squares White Mix.

And voilá, the Doggies Birthday Card is ready! I hope you enjoyed this simple tutorial and wish you happy crafting!

Beach Vacation Scrapbook Layout

Hey everyone, Ali (FunAdventuresWithAli) here today! I’m excited to share another fun project with you—my Beach Vacation Scrapbook Layout—and let me tell you, this one is all about dimension! I went all in with the Crafty Foam Tape in White 54ft and popped up just about everything: papers, stickers, my photo frame—you name it!

Beach Vacation Scrapbook Layout by Ali Skifton for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Beach Vacation Layout Background

I started by choosing some bright, beachy patterned papers that remind me of the ocean breeze. I cut them into rectangles and layered them over three strips of white cardstock. Using my go-to  E-Z Runner® Grand Refillable Dispenser, I adhered the layers—this dispenser glides like a dream!

To really make those layers pop, I backed the entire strip with Crafty Foam Tape in White 54ft and placed them along the left side of my layout. Instant depth and visual interest!

Beach Vacation Scrapbook Layout by Ali Skifton for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Design Details

To bring even more focus to my photo, I added Crafty Foam Tape in White 54ft behind the frame too. The extra lift helps it stand out beautifully against the layered background. I even added a little strip of foam behind my title for that perfect finishing touch.

What I love about this foam tape is how versatile it is—you can cut it down to any size you need. It makes it super easy to add customized dimension to stickers, paper pieces, titles, and more.

Beach Vacation Scrapbook Layout by Ali Skifton for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

This layout features an Allison Davis sketch and Simple Stories collection that pairs so well with the glowing hues of the sunset from our beach trip. All the layering and adding dimension really help transport me back to that peaceful, sandy moment.

So go ahead—grab your foam tape and make your memories pop! And hey, don’t forget to take in a few sunsets while you’re at it 🌅

Remember Mixed Media ATC

Do you have a pile of leftover patterned papers and elements? Well, I did so I decided to do an ATC (Artist Trading Card) project. They are quick, depending on design, and have a cute size of 2.5 x 3.5-inch. Hi, Margie here today and I like to show you my Remember Mixed Media ATC!

Remember Mixed Media ATC by Margie Higuchi for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Remember ATC Card Base

Cut a piece of 2.5 x 3.5-inch white cardstock base and create a texture by using an embossing folder with a die-cutting machine.

To highlight the embossed design, I sprayed Distress Oxide Ink Spray and misted with water to dilute the intense color on a glass mat. Randomly press the ATC base with the ink. Dab off excess with a paper towel. Set aside to dry.

Paper Tearing Layers

Tear one edge of two patterned paper strips and ink the straight edges with the Distress Oxide Ink. Adhere the strips together with the E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips Refillable Dispenser. Set it aside.

Adding Elements

Determine your cluster design from the ephemera pack. Adhere the torn layered strip to the left-side of the ATC with the E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips Refillable Dispenser. Using the same adhesive, secure the plant and label elements. Designer’s Note: Use the bone folder to burnish the adhesive into the textured surface for a stronger bond.

Lastly, pop up the blue bug with two small circles from the 3D Foam Circles White Mix to place it on top of the label. It’s done to be swapped out or make a wonderful addition to my scrapbook layout. Lots of ideas!

Metallic Foil Graduation Card

Hi, Judy here today! At this time of year, I always think it’s graduation season. I have a Metallic Foil Graduation Card to celebrate with lots of shine and sparkle! I used a combination of Metallic Transfer Foil Sheets Celebrate Colors, 3D Foam Strips Black, and 3D Foam Large Black for a super easy and quick make!

Metallic Foil Graduation Card by Judy Hayes for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Metallic Foil Graduation Card Pieces

Cut white cardstock 5.5 x 8.5 inches, score and fold to make a 4.25 x 5.5 inch card base. Then from black cardstock, cut a 4 x 5.25 inch background piece and a 0.5 x 3.125 inch mat for greeting.

Attach 3D Foam Strips to Card Front

Find horizontal center of black background piece and mark with pencil or use ruler. I measured 2.375 inches from short edge and kept ruler there to place first strip of 3D Foam Large Black.

Next leave a narrow gap and place a narrow strip of 3D Foam Strips Black and cut to desired length. I positioned strips starting at top, pressed them in place and then cut length at bottom.

Metallic Foil Graduation Card by Judy Hayes for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Continue to alternate and stagger 3D Foam Large Black and 3D Foam Strips Black (small) across panel leaving a narrow gap between each strip. (Designer Tip: If they don’t come out even at edges of background, simply trim it slightly to be even.)

Wear Your Adhesive on the Outside with 3D Foam Strips

Peel liner from one 3D Foam Large Black Strip, gently press green foil from Metallic Transfer Foil Sheets Celebrate Colors so that foil does not completely cover 3D Foam Strip and peel away foil. Then apply blue foil over green to fill in space not covered by green. Continue to apply foil in this manner to all 3D Foam Large Black Strips.

Next peel liner from a narrow 3D Foam Strips Black, cover with gold foil from Metallic Transfer Foil Sheets Celebrate Colors, press well and peel away foil. Continue to apply gold foil to all narrow 3D Foam Strips Black.

Secure to the Card Base

Use E-Z Runner® Petite Permanent Dots Refillable Dispenser to apply adhesive to back of foil strip background and fasten to card front

Prepare Greeting

Stamp greeting with black ink on white cardstock. Align coordinating die over greeting, tape in place and run through die cutting machine to cut.

Apply adhesive to back of greeting with E-Z Runner® Petite Permanent Dots Refillable Dispenser and fasten to black cardstock mat. Then apply adhesive to back and fasten across foil strips on card front.

Literally the Best Day Shaker Card

Hi, Jingle here today and I am so excited to share this Literally the Best Day Shaker Card for you. Creating shaker cards is really so much fun, but they can take quite a bit of time and thought, as you have to assemble them ‘just right’. Today I am sharing a simple trick that makes creating a shaker element so simple! You are going to love it!

Literally the Best Day Shaker Card by Jennifer Ingle for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Literally the Best Day Shaker Card Design

For this card design, I used Lawn Fawn stamps and stencils to create the cute little images. But the real star of the show is the shaker feature. I actually created it using a perfectly sized pocket from the Keepsake Envelopes Mix! Here, let me show you.

Literally the Best Day Shaker Card by Jennifer Ingle for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

The Shaker Feature

Simply adhere the pocket to the back panel of the card front – they are self-adhesive! Then fill it with my shaker bits! To be sure that the envelope didn’t show in my frame, I trimmed the envelope flap just a bit. The pockets have a small bit of adhesive that allows you to secure the flap. To ensure the pocket is sealed completely and no shaker bits would fall out, I added a strip of Crafty Power Tape Polybag 81ft.

Assembling the Card

Die-cut a square in my front panel before adding all of the fun design elements to showcase my shaker beautifully! I did raise the frame a bit with Crafty Foam Tape White 108ft. This is the thinner foam tape, which means I could also use 3D Foam Squares White Mix for my design elements without it being too bulky.

Literally the Best Day Shaker Card by Jennifer Ingle for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Finally, I adhered the sentiment strips with E-Z Runner® Grand Permanent Dots Refillable Dispenser to ensure they would stay put and then my super fun and super simple shaker was ready to go!

Thanks for stopping by! I hope you give this fun shaker technique a try. I know I will be reaching for my Keepsake Envelopes to create quick and easy shakers a lot more often!

High Fives Grad Card

Hi, everyone! It’s Graduation season, and there is no better way to celebrate your grad’s accomplishments than with a handmade High Fives Grad Card! Teri here to show you how to make a card to do just that!

High Fives Grad Card by Teri Anderson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Make the Card Base and Foil Panel

Start by creating a card base. You’ll also want to make a frame to fit on it by taking a panel of cardstock and cutting a rectangle shape out of it. Set both aside.

Cut a smaller rectangle from cardstock. It doesn’t matter what color cardstock you use. We’re going to cover it up completely! Randomly apply a few strips of Premium Double-Sided Tape onto it. Burnish foil onto the tape strips.

High Fives Grad Card by Teri Anderson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Now, apply more strips of tape and apply more foil with another color of Metallic Transfer Foil. Do this one more time with more tape and one more color of foil. (Creative tip! You can make give your foil a distressed look by crinkling it up and flattening it out before adhering it!)

Assemble the Card

Take your card and set the frame on it. Adhere the rectangle onto the card. Cut strips of Crafty Foam Tape to adhere your frame onto the card. If your strips are too wide, just trim them in half with your scissors. Mount the frame onto your card.

High Fives Grad Card by Teri Anderson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Stamp, cut and adhere a few graduation caps or diplomas. Adhere them to your card with 3D Foam Squares. Stamp a sentiment on a strip of cardstock. Mount it across your card.

High Fives Grad Card by Teri Anderson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Complete your card by adding a few sequins and 3D Foam Stars. Embellish the stars with glitter, flock or foil.
