Hi all! Tami Mayberry here with you today to share one of my favorite uses for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L® Adhesive Sheets.  When it comes to crafting, I am honestly not a huge fan of liquid adhesives. I  find that have neither the time or patience to apply them and wait for them to dry. That is one of the huge reasons that Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L® products are my go-to adhesives.

Now, as far as Adhesive Sheets— I currently design for a die cutting company. Many of the dies I use are very intricate with lots of small areas to adhere. When die-cutting such pieces there is nothing I prefer more than Adhesive Sheets. I simply attach the sheet to the back of my cardstock or paper before die-cutting the shapes.  I am then able to peel off the backing and attach the die-cut quickly and easily. This is the same process which I used for the card shown above.  Try it for yourself and I’m sure you’ll see!

Using Adhesive Sheets for Die Cutting

1. Form a 4 ¼ x 5 ½-inch card from light blue cardstock.
2. Attach Adhesive Sheet to back of kraft cardstock.

3. Position die onto cardstock; die-cut panel design.

4. Remove adhesive backing from die-cut shape; attach to light tan cardstock. Trim slightly smaller than card front.

5. Stamp sentiment onto light blue cardstock; cut out and V-notch end. Adhere to die-cut panel using Premium Double-Sided Tape 1/4″.
6. Wrap panel with twine securing ends to back of panel using Premium Double-Sided Tape 1/4″

7. Thread button with twine; tie into a bow. Attach to card front as shown using Dodz Adhesive Dots 3D.

8. Attach completed panel to card front using 3D Foam Squares White Regular.
9. Attaching with Dodz Adhesive Dots Mini, embellish card front with half-back pearls.
