Hi there Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L Fans! Christine Meyer joining you today with a grown boy layout – a college visit. To really make it awesome I did a technique showcasing the E-Z Squares® Refillable Dispenser to create a unique background!

Sometimes you have great products but you just want to make a fun background. Have you ever thought about ways to make a background using adhesives? Although I have done it several times (including earlier this month) – I’ve never done one with the E-Z Squares® but they were the perfect product to Wear Your Adhesive Outside!
E-Z Squares Background

To create this background, I just ran the E-Z Squares® Refillable Dispenser up and down the page creating angled lines of varying heights. Then I added embossing powder, heated it up, and voila! A super easy background that didn’t require any special tricks or time to create!
Other Adhesives on this Layout

With a bold background on this college visit layout, I knew I wasn’t going to need to add a lot! Crafty Foam Tape, 3D Foam Squares, and of course the E-Z Runner® Grand all combine to create layers of fun!

Here you can see how the layers came together to create a final bold and colorful topping to this fun background.
