How to Make an Easter Envelope Mini Album

Spring Greetings!  Shellye McDaniel here today with a cute Easter Envelope Mini Scrapbook project just in time for an Easter basket!

Easter Envelope Mini Scrapbook by Shellye McDaniel for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Envelope Mini Scrapbook Basics

First, I gathered four greeting cards with matching envelopes, along with E-Z Runner® Grand Refillable Dispenser using the E-Z Runner® Grand Ultra Strong Refill, Crafty Foam Tape White and Extreme Double-Sided Tape 1/2in .

Easter Envelope Mini Scrapbook by Shellye McDaniel for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

These greeting cards were purchased from The Dollar Tree.  In deciding which cards to choose, I looked for motifs that could be easily die-cut or used in its entire design.

Next, I cut one of the flaps from the envelopes; this is the front page.  After that, I added Extreme Double-Sided Tape 1/2in to the flaps and then inserted into the opening of the opposite envelope. This makes the pages sturdier and also provides an extra pocket on each page!

Embellish the Pages

Prep all of the pages by dressing them with patterned papers using the E-Z Runner® Grand Ultra Strong Refill.

View the short How to Use and Refill the E-Z Runner Grand Dispensers video below.

For the cover, I simply cut the back from one of the cards and attached Crafty Foam Tape White (13′) to it before attaching to the front envelope.

In further embellishing the cover, I added Adhesive Dots Mini to the egg design and bunny’s cheeks and then topped with pink glitter.

Per usual, I love using various sizes of the Adhesive Dots to attach buttons.  Here I’ve used the Adhesive Dots Large and also 3D Foam Squares to add the other die-cuts with.

To create the pocket I used strips of the Crafty Foam Tape White (13′) on the sides and bottom of the cut-out.

This is such a fun and inexpensive way to craft a special mini album that can be tucked into an Easter basket or given to grandma for a brag book!  I hope you’ve enjoyed!

A Quick Gift Box and Card Tutorial

Hi everyone! Judy here today to show you how to decorate a Quick Gift Box and make a coordinating gift card.  It’s so easy to add paper to the box sides with Adhesive Sheets 6 x 12 inch applied to the paper!  I used E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips Refillable Dispenser for assembly of the card along with  Adhesive Dots Medium to hold the bow in place.

A Quick Gift Box and Card Tutorial by Judy Hayes for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Embellish the Gift Box

To cover the box, measure the sides, ends, and top for paper size.  Next, apply Adhesive Sheets 6 x 12 inch to the back of patterned.

Cut paper into pieces to fit top, sides, and ends. Then simply remove the adhesive liner and apply paper to the box!

With a ball head sewing pin, I poked through the liner only to lift a corner so I could peel it off.

A Quick Gift Box and Card Tutorial by Judy Hayes for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Here’s a quick video on How to Use Adhesive Sheets. Note: at the beginning, it shows how to apply the sheet and it can be used to die-cut, punch, and scissor cut…many ways.

Using contrast papers, I created a faux band.  I applied Adhesive Sheets 6 x 12 inch to assemble a strip as one piece before making the band.

A Quick Gift Box and Card Tutorial by Judy Hayes for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Cut into pieces to fit sides and top.  It’s quick to adhere by simply removing the liner and pressing in place!

I made a multi-loop bow of white seam binding.  It’s fastened with an Adhesive Dots Medium, so it will stay on the box when it’s opened.  Wrap the dotted ribbon around the box and tied with a loop bow.

A Quick Gift Box and Card Tutorial by Judy Hayes for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

The Gift Card Details

The little gift card is 2½ x 3ʺ.  I had dotted and black cardstock papers with Adhesive Sheets on them from the box to use for the band.  The rest of the papers were fastened with  E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips Refillable Dispenser.

Flock and Glitter Background Tutorial

Like to add texture to your handmade cards? Teri here to show you how to create a flock and glitter background with 3D Foam Creative Sheets from Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L.

Flock and Glitter Background Tutorial by Teri Anderson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Creating the Background

Start by cutting a 4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″ rectangle from a 3D Foam Creative Sheet. You could easily do this with scissors or you can use a guillotine cutter.

Flock and Glitter Background Tutorial by Teri Anderson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Once you’ve got your rectangle, cut five 4 1/4″ wide strips. You can make your strips the same size or you can mix things up and cut a variety of sizes.

Flock and Glitter Background Tutorial by Teri Anderson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Adhere all the strips onto an A2 top-folded card. Be sure to remove only one side of the foam strips’ backing papers. You’ll see why in a minute.

Flock and Glitter Background Tutorial by Teri Anderson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Now, remove the backing paper from the top strip of foam on your card. Randomly adhere some 3D Foam Circles onto it. You can make them as even (or uneven) as you want. Take off the backing paper after you’ve placed all the circles on the strip.

Flock and Glitter Background Tutorial by Teri Anderson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Adding the Flock and Glitter

Dump flock over the strip. Use parchment paper or wax paper to burnish the flock onto the foam strip and circles.

Flock and Glitter Background Tutorial by Teri Anderson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Now, you are going to move onto another strip! Remove the backing paper from the bottom foam strip on the card and then randomly add circles to it. Pull the backing paper off the circles and then dump some flock onto the strip and circles. Remove the excess flock.

Flock and Glitter Background Tutorial by Teri Anderson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Remove the backing paper from one more strip. You’ll add circles and 3D Foam Hearts to it. Place them onto the strip as randomly as you want them to appear. Take the backing paper off of the hearts and circles and then dump glitter all over the strip. Again, use parchment paper or wax paper to burnish the glitter onto the foam.

Flock and Glitter Background Tutorial by Teri Anderson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Finishing the Background and Card

You should have two strips of foam left on your card to embellish. Remove the backing paper on one and adhere flock to it. Then take the backing paper off the other and apply glitter to it.

Flock and Glitter Background Tutorial by Teri Anderson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Complete the card by stamping a sentiment onto a strip of cardstock. Don’t have the right sentiment? Computer-generate one and print it out. Adhere it to the card with 3D Foam Circles.

Blessed Scrapbook Layout with Dimension

Hello crafty friends, and welcome back! Tracy here, and today I am going through how I create scrapbook layouts with dimension. I’m also sharing some tips and tricks to do so. I absolutely adore creating dimensional, full of texture layouts. I admit, sometimes they don’t fit wonderfully into albums. But, for example…this layout is one that I created as a gift, and its final home is in a shadowbox frame, given to a dear friend.

Blessed Scrapbook Layout with Dimension by Tracy McLennon for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

 

My first step is to create the layers of the background. When I know that am creating a dimensional layout, having a good solid base is very important. So to create the backdrop I use my E-Z Runner® Grand Refillable Dispenser paired with the E-Z Runner® Grand Ultra Strong Refill. That way I know whatever I put on top of it, no matter how heavy, the background will be firmly and permanently attached.

Dimensional Blessed Layout by Tracy McLennon for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Once I have the background sorted,  I want the matted photo to stand out. Using 2 layers of Crafty Foam Tape White for extra height, I add the photo to the layout. Doubling the Crafty Foam Tape White makes sure that the matted photo doesn’t get lost below the dimensional flowers.

Next come to the flowers, cheesecloth, and other small embellishments. Pull out your Adhesive Dots!! I start by laying out the flowers and embellies where I would like them to live. First add the cardstock die cut embellishments using 3D Foam Squares White Mix. Then use Adhesive Dots Medium for the larger flowers and Adhesive Dots Small for the smaller flowers and leaves. Anywhere that I have the cheesecloth, I did double up the Adhesive Dots Medium, this ensures that the cheesecloth stays put on the layout.

3D Foam Stars Scrapbook Layout

Do you have a go-to technique with adhesive? Christine joining you today and I am always using the “Wear Your Adhesive on the Outside” technique and especially love to use it on Scrapbook Layouts!  Recently I showcased three different layouts showcasing that technique in Creative Scrapbooker Magazine.  Today I am going to share the first one with you – how I made 3D Foam Stars shine!

3D Foam Stars Scrapbook Layout by Christine Meyer for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

The 3D Foam Stars are probably my favorite of all the 3D Foam shape options.  Of course, as a mom with three boys, it’s pretty rare to find any layout from me without stars on it!

3D Foam Stars Scrapbook Layout Close-ups

3D Foam Stars covered with foil make this layout shine

As I created this I knew that I wanted to use a lot of 3D Foam Stars.  But I also knew that they were going to get lost amidst the patterned papers I was using.  So I took a slightly different approach – putting the bigger stars onto vellum.  This softened the background significantly and really allow those to shine as embellishments.

I used foil from the 3D Foam Holiday Embellishment Kit to cover all the gold stars.  Applying foil to 3D Foam Adhesives could not be easier! I’m so glad there are so many foil options available now!

3D Foam Stars Scrapbook Layout by Christine Meyer for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Here’s another example of how well the vellum worked!  I hadn’t tried this approach before, but I will definitely be revisiting it!

Here’s a quick video on How to Use 3D Foam Hearts and Other Shapes below (I skipped to the foiling part).

The Rest of the Adhesives

3D Foam Stars Scrapbook Layout by Christine Meyer for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Finally, let’s take a look at some of the other adhesives I used to make this layout.  In order to add all my simple pieces, the circles, and photo mats, I used the E-Z Runner Grand.  I popped my pictures up using 3D Foam Squares and Crafty Foam Tape.  Lastly, I used the E-Z Runner Micro Refillable Dispenser to attach my cut file words.

I’ll be back later this month to share another layout with you!  Thanks so much for stopping by today!

Butterfly Spring Mini Gift Bags

Hello friends, Terri here with a pair of Butterfly Spring Mini Gift Bags.  I love making little treat bags to have on hand for various occasions; gifting my co-workers, friends, family or teachers.  Today, I’ll show you how to make those gorgeous butterflies using the 3D Foam Butterflies as an outline.

Butterfly Spring Mini Gift Bags by Terri Burson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

The Appeal Of Dimension

There are numerous ways to embellish your 3D adhesive foam products from Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L.  Glittering and embossing are a couple of favorite techniques.  However, those are one layer techniques.  Although 3D foam already offers dimension, how about taking it up a notch and add dimension on top of dimension for your butterfly?  Yes!

Butterfly Spring Mini Gift Bags by Terri Burson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Use What You Have

I’ve had these pretty gems in my craft stash and thought they would make my butterfly really stand out.  The 3D Foam Butterflies have a super sticky adhesive underneath the top lining.  Just peel the top layer and add your gems.  Once I began, I started thinking of other things I could use to embellish with dimension;  tiny styrofoam pellets, sequins, candy sprinkles or even kosher salt!

Butterfly Spring Mini Gift Bags by Terri Burson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Creating A Foundation For Your Butterfly

For my die cut paper bags, I don’t want to just plop the butterfly down and call it a day.  I want to lay a foundation so it can stand out.  Having multiple layers offers more visual appeal.  With that in mind, I trimmed two 7″ pieces of ribbon.  The white satin is larger so that will be my base.  Because it’s thin, it will easily adhere and wrap around my box using the E-Z Runner® Grand Refillable Dispenser and E-Z Runner® Grand Ultra Strong Refill.

Butterfly Spring Mini Gift Bags by Terri Burson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Next, because my corded ribbon is thicker, the Extreme Double-Sided Tape 1/2in will offer an added level of security.  I always use this super powerful tape when adhering ribbons of added thickness.  If you have problems with your ribbons falling apart, give this a try.  I promise you will notice a difference in quality and strength.

Butterfly Spring Mini Gift Bags by Terri Burson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

The final touch is adding the 3D Foam Circles White Mix, to pop up my sentiments.  These sweet little mini treat bags are the perfect size for tucking in some sweets, a big cookie or gift card.  It’s a great way to bring a smile to someone’s face.  We could all use more smiles, don’t you think?

Golden Leaves Card Tutorial

Hi everyone, Yvonne here with a sparkling Golden Leaves Card using Adhesive Sheets 4×6 inch to make gorgeous golden stickers to embellish your card.

Who can resist vellum? It’s very delicate to adhere but I will show you that the E-Z Runner® Permanent Fine Adhesive Dispenser is perfect for adhering without showing! Let’s get to it.

Golden Leaves Card Tutorial by Yvonne van de Grijp for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Golden Leaves Card Top Layers

Start with adhering the first layer of dark pink cardstock that is slightly smaller than the white card base using the E-Z Runner® Ultra Strong Refillable Dispenser.

For the second layer, I used a soft pink cardstock. Choose a rectangle die that is slightly smaller than the first layer. Die-cut, emboss and sand the embossed edges of the card layer. Put aside to make the gold leaves.

The Golden Details

Take a sheet of Adhesive Sheets 4×6 inch and remove the yellow liner. Place on the back of a gold mirror cardstock. Now you have made a beautiful sticker sheet that is ready to be die-cut.

Golden Leaves Card Tutorial by Yvonne van de Grijp for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

View a quick How to Use Adhesive Sheets video below.

Die-cut several leaves from the gold sticker sheet created. Place them on top of the soft pink layer to determine placement. Don’t forget to place a few off the edges.

After I was satisfied with the number of die cuts and placement, I removed the white liner from the back of each leaf and adhered down to the layer.

Trim off the excess from the edges with a pair of scissors. The reason why I didn’t adhere my top layer to the card base yet 🙂

Finally, adhere the top layer the card base using the E-Z Runner® Ultra Strong Refillable Dispenser.

Embellishing the Card

First die-cut a banner from white cardstock and adhere to the card using Crafty Foam Tape White.

Next die-cut and emboss several flowers from vellum. Curl the edges of the flowers using your fingers for dimension.

Golden Leaves Card Tutorial by Yvonne van de Grijp for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

The best way to adhere these flowers to the card is with the E-Z Runner® Permanent Fine Adhesive Dispenser. The E-Z Runner® Permanent Fine Adhesive Dispenser is slightly opaque, but will dry clear over time! Next, add self-adhesive pearls to the flower centers.

For the final touch, cut a sentiment banner and adhere to the card using two tiny stripes cut from Crafty Foam Tape White.

Golden Leaves Card Tutorial by Yvonne van de Grijp for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

And voila, your Golden Leaves card is ready! Wishing you happy crafting!

Hugs from Holland,
Yvonne

Mason Jar Ring Spring Ribbon Wreath

Hi friends! Dana Tatar here today sharing a colorful mason jar ring ribbon wreath. I’m anxiously awaiting the arrival of Spring. I freshened up my front door décor with this simple farmhouse style wreath made from mason jar rings, ribbon, and double-sided tape.

Mason Jar Ring Spring Ribbon Wreath by Dana Tatar for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Double-sided tape is my preferred medium to use with ribbon for several reasons. I’m able to avoid the mess and drying time of liquid glue. Also, the ribbon does not become discolored from coming into contact with a wet adhesive.

How to Use Double-Sided Tape on Mason Jar Rings

Mason Jar Ring Spring Ribbon Wreath by Dana Tatar for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Cut (or tear) Premium Double-Sided Tape to length and apply to the mason jar rings. I used Premium 1/2-inch Double-Sided Tape on the majority of my rings. Most of the ribbon I used for this project is 5/8-inch wide, so the 1/2-inch tape fits nearly edge to edge underneath. One ribbon I selected for this project is 3/8-inches wide, so I used Crafty Power Tape, which is about half the width of the Premium Double-Sided Tape, for those rings.

All varieties of 3L Double-Sided Tape are strong and are great for use on off-the-page projects. The paper liners tear by hand which makes this tape so easy to use! The tape is available in four widths and holds embellishments permanently. Try sticking it to paper, canvas, ribbon, wood, and photos, in addition to the metal shown here.

Mason Jar Ring Spring Ribbon Wreath by Dana Tatar for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Once the tape was applied to each mason jar ring, I peeled off the white liner from the tape and smoothed ribbon over the adhesives. Next, I used a Mini Adhesive Dot to seal the end of each ribbon to the ring.

Please visit by my blog for instructions on how to assemble and embellish the wreath.

I’m thrilled with my new door décor! I chose a bright color palette for Spring, but this project can easily be adapted to match the mood of any season, sports team, or favorite color combination. Just change the ribbon.

Thanks so much for stopping by today!

A Clean and Simple Thank You Card Tutorial

Hi everyone, Christine here today.  Some crafty days it feels just right to make a clean and simple card.  On those days it is always a white card that calls to me with a little dash of color along with my fantastic go-to Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L products.

A Clean and Simple Thank You Card Tutorial by Christine Emberson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Clean and Simple Thank You Card Steps

To start, I matted a stamped white card mat onto a white card front using my E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips Refillable Dispenser.

A Clean and Simple Thank You Card Tutorial by Christine Emberson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Next, I die cut 4 small labels, 4 leaves and 4 little flowers.  I attached 3D Foam Squares Regular on the reverse of each label and for the flowers and leaves, I used 3D Foam Squares Small.  If you purchase a mix pack you’ve got both sizes to hand, perfect for all sizes of embellishments!

A Clean and Simple Thank You Card Tutorial by Christine Emberson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Designer’s Tip: When positioning the labels and flowers I used a ruler to check everything was aligned, no-one likes wonky flowers!

A Clean and Simple Thank You Card Tutorial by Christine Emberson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

For an additional nice touch select an embossing folder and emboss just the flap of the envelope.  I created a further flower and leaf and this time I used 3D Foam Circle to secure it in place.  Again these come in a mixed pack and available in black or white so you truly have the best of both worlds!

The finished card with pearls for the middle of each flower.  It is definitely white with those flowers and leaves adding a splash of brightness.

A House Is A Home Keepsake Box

Whether you’re building one house or a whole village, these paper mache homes are a lot of fun to make.  Just dress in paper and embellish!

A House Is A Home Keepsake Box by Shellye McDaniel for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

To begin I chose a cardboard house with a removable lid.  I traced the base onto scrapbook paper and then adhered to an Adhesive Sheets 12×12 inch. Next, I trimmed the paper/adhesive out and carefully attached to the box.

A House Is A Home Keepsake Box by Shellye McDaniel for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

I repeated the same steps for dressing the top/roof as I did for the base.  Before attaching the paper, the pom trim was added using the Extreme Double-Sided Tape 1/8in.

To the roof-line, I added drops of Adhesive Dots Mini and then topped with orange glitter.  At the edge of the roof, I placed pieces of Creative Photo Corners White to mimic shingles.

A House Is A Home Keepsake Box by Shellye McDaniel for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Finally, I embellished the front with die-cuts made 3D with 3D Foam Squares. For the darker cloud, I added an extra layer of the foam squares to give even more dimension.

These sweet houses would be so cute dressed for Spring and lined up on a mantel or bookshelf!
