Hello everyone! Its Guest Designer Marilyn here with a shabby chic birthday card that I made for a special friend on her birthday, using E-Z Dots® Permanent Refill.
Birthday Card Tutorial:
Place a piece of 5.25 x 4 inch blue cardstock card panel to a white card base with E-Z Dots® Permanent Refill.
Cut a piece of 1 x 5.25 inch strip of white cardstock and adhered it to the card front with the E-Z Dots® Permanent Refill.
Die-cut a heart and adhered it with the Dual Tip Glue Pen on top of the white cardstock strip. Trim excess off the edge.
Layer and adhere flowers, buttons and piece of cheesecloth on top of the heart die cut with the Dodz Adhesive Dots Medium.

Hey crafty peeps! Tracy here with a confession: I am addicted to dimension! Adding Crafty Foam Tape to today’s scrapbook page is fabulous, along side using flowers, metal, trim and ribbon…anything that adds texture and dimension that compliments my photos. With thicker items, my photos also needs to meet that same thickness which means lots of fabulous 3D Foam products!
Tracy’s Favorite Adhesives
These are a few of my crafty go-to’s that came in handy for this layout. First and foremost for this dimensional layout is my Crafty Foam Tape. The roll of Crafty Foam Tape is perfect to have on hand, so that you can hand cut what ever size piece of foam that you may need. My favourite adhesive for adding trim or ribbon is the Extreme Double-Sided Tape 1/8″. And then of course my obsession with Creative Photo Corners Black continues.
Adding Dimension to Photos
When I teach scrapbook classes, and it comes to adding photos using 3D Foam; I always say “Make sure you use enough 3D Foam Squares, you do not want to have a saggy photo on a stunning layout.” Then people will always ask how many 3D Foam Squares do YOU use on a matted 4 x 6″ photo?
Well here is an image for that answer. Below I have used my Crafty Foam Tape cut into square chunks. I always use eight chunks or 3D Foam Squares to pop up my matted 4 x 6″ photos.
In the image below, you can see that the flowers that I used on my layout are pretty thick. I will usually make sure that my matted photos come up to the height of those dimensional items.
To do that is pretty simple…just double it up! You can stack Crafty Foam Tape or 3D Foam Squares on top of each other!
I added all of that pretty dimensional foliage using my Adhesive Dots Large. These will ensure that these bulky items will stay in place AND be safe around my photos.
Hi everyone, it’s Christine with a romantic lacy die cut card – perfect for a wedding! Applying delicate die cuts can often be tricky but they are no longer a problem with Adhesive Sheet 4 x 6″.
Using Adhesive Sheets with Die Cuts
I die cut this beautiful trellis design and it was easy to affix to my patterned paper background. Definitely more favourable than liquid glue.
Once affixed, I used E-Z Runner® Grand Refillable Dispenser to attach to a silver foil card mat. With 150′ feet of adhesive it is going to last a long time!
It’s been a long time since I did not realize a layout and found the picture on the market of a colorful basket of pomegranates, and I thought I could make one from the infantile air. simple, colorful and a bit messy.
This layout is somewhat different from my current style, but sometimes it is interesting to walk through new or already traveled paths: you will discover many things. It is an exercise that is sometimes worth doing.
Hello Everyone! Vicki here to share a little mini album that I mainly put together with Adhesive Sheets 4×6″. I’ve been working this special album for my sister. She recently became a Grandma for the second time and I thought that was totally deserving of a little brag book for her purse 🙂
This project is going to be taken in and out of her purse a lot ( I’m sure) , so I wanted to keep it simple, without a lot of embellishments AND most of all I wanted the pages and photos to have very secure edges.
Making a Mini Album
Adhesive Sheets work fantastic for projects like this. I used the 4 x 6 inch size for this album but they also come in 6 x 12 inch and 12 x 12 inch sizes so you can choose what is best for the project at hand.
These sheets are easy to use. Peel off the yellow side and place down on your paper. Smooth over with your hand and peel off. You now have adhesive from edge to edge!
The photos can be adhered the same way, using the Adhesive Sheets.
As you can see, I’ve added a number of pages and photos to this album and they are all very secure. This little album filled with my sister’s adorable grandbabies is sturdy and ready to be view many times.
Happy 14th of the month! Latrice here with a card to share with you using 3D Foam Pennants and Crafty Power Tape. These two products make creating fast and fun.
In my last design team box I received a set of embossing powder and elements from Stampendous and instantly thought I needed to use it. The 3D Foam Pennants would be perfect to use. I love the two sided adhesive on these. Check out what I made…
First I pulled out items I wanted to use but in the end I didn’t use everything pictured here.
I started off my cutting a piece of white cardstock for my card base and placed a smaller piece of patterned paper to layer. I kept it simple with just one layer and used the Crafty Power Tape.
Next I chose three of the five choices of embossing powders and elements and used them just like glitter. I like the texture it gave. I layered them on in a semi random order and used my finger to really press it into the 3D Foam Pennants.
Each 3D Foam Pennant was placed in an arch to create a banner. Just add enamel dots, some faux stitching with a black fine tip sharpie, and the stamped banner using Lawn Fawn stamp set “So Much To Say.”
I really love how the banner turned out with its fabulous texture. I may try this one again and actually emboss it on there. That’s the fun part about using these banners with the Stampendous embossing powders and elements.
Thanks a bunch for stopping by. Grab yourself some Scrapbook Adhesive by 3L® supplies and get creating today!

I’m excited to share my literally “outside the box” project using treat box etched die as a Sweet 16 banner with a Bohemian vibe secured with the NEW E-Z Runner® Grand Ultra Strong Refill! What do you think?
Next I cut the Surprise Me Box Etched Dies Base Die for a total of six with patterned papers. Assemble each box with E-Z Runner® Grand Ultra Strong by applying adhesive on the tabs and put the ends together.
Embellishing the Banner:
For the letters, I took off the top liner of 3D Foam Creative Sheets (determine how much you want to use and trim first) and placed patterned paper over it. Cut the desired letter with manual die-cutting machine. Repeat the process until you spell out SWEET.
For 16, repeat above step but without adding patterned paper. Once cut, you will add glitter to the front side by removing top liner and then pressing glitter over the exposed area. Tap off excess and set aside.
Cut Surprise Me Box Etched Dies Tag Die for a total of 12 tags with white cardstock. Apply a line of E-Z Runner® Grand Ultra Strong in the middle of two tags per box and center them together on top to form one shape. Remove the bottom liner of a letter and place on top of the two tags. Repeat for all letters and “16.”
Close each end of box with an Adhesive Dots Large. Place one in the inside and squeeze all four sides to adhere (sometimes I used two Adhesive Dots if one didn’t work).
Thread jute through the top of each box and it’s ready to displayed!
Thanks for stopping by!

If you have ever worked on creating a heritage album or even just a heritage layout, you know that you really do want to use the right adhesives to ensure that your precious photos are preserved and taken care of. With that said I would always recommend that you use a copy of your heritage photo instead of an original.
The biggest part of creating is choosing acid free adhesives, in order to preserve and protect those memories. One of my go to choices is the Creative Photo Corners Mix Pack. Photo corners adhere your photo to an album or layout without actually having adhesive directly on your photo. The benefit of this is, if you happen to be using original photos and not copies, the photo can easily be taken out to copy and share. Plus the fact that a photo corner can give you that classic heritage look.
For all of my regular papercrafting with paper layers, my go to adhesive is my E-Z Runner® Grand Dispenser. For dimension, I use 3D Foam Squares like I did with my matted photo. But for all of those little bits and pieces of memorabilia, and other small heritage embellishments like buttons and keys I will grab my Adhesive Dots Micro.
Thanks so much for stopping by to pick up a few heritage layout tips. Tracy
