Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L Crafty Power Blog

Simple Stories Blog Hop- Be Merry

Hi There! Shell Carman here!

Today I have a page using the gorgeous Christmas collection December Documented. I love how this collection is bright & fun but still has a bit of a vintage about it too. My page had lot’s of dimension & layers which I have created using the fabulous Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L 3D Foam products.

To add dimension to the fussy cut title “Be Merry” I have cut strips of Crafty Foam Tape Black . Using the longer strips allows the title to sit flat & also gives flexibility to trim large & small pieces to fit.

The 3D Foam Squares Black Regular Size were the perfect size to add dimension behind the bunting.

I have also used some Designer Shapes 3D Foam Christmas Shapes to follow through with the holly image. I have coated the holly leaves & berries in glitter

Love that you used a B/W photo….it lets it stand out and not get lost in all the colorful goodness elsewhere on your page. Thanks for the tip on using the longer foam tape to help the title lay flat.

I didn’t know there was black foam tape! Sometimes I paint foam dots with black marker, when I don’t want them to show. This would be so much easier)
