Christine Emberson’s Poinsettia Card and Box Ensemble

This Merry Christmas Poinsettia stamp set is stunning with its swirl image surrounding the detailed poinsettia and a beautiful sentiment. With this stamp set, I am set to be organized and go festive! Today, I create a holiday ensemble.

Holiday Ensemble on QuietFire Designs Blog Hop and Giveaway - Day 4 Poinsettia Card by Christine Emberson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

My first project is a traditional Christmas card. First I stamped and coloured the poinsettia image, which really made the design pop. For the bottom of the card, I stamped ‘Merry Christmas’. Next, I affixed Crafty Foam Tape on the back of card panel and matted the card using E-Z Runner Grand Refillable Dispenser. Lastly, tied some red bakers twine.

On my second project, I stamped on dark red cardstock. It creates a stunning gift box and I love the effect. Assemble with E-Z Runner® Grand Refillable Dispenser and decorate with a simple tag. The stamp works both as a feature and a background. Now I’m thinking gift wrap too!

Judy Hayes’ Season’s Greetings Candle Decor Piece

Hello everyone! I am pleased to share a home decor piece that features a die cut made with Quietfire Design Season’s Greetings – Metal Cutting Die and adhered with our Adhesive Sheets 4 x 6ʺ.

Holiday Ensemble on QuietFire Designs Blog Hop and Giveaway - Day 4 Season's Greetings Candle Decor Piece by Judy Hayes for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

First I covered grey cardstock with Adhesive Sheets 4 x 6ʺ on both sides of the paper. Then I die cut this beautiful script “Season’s Greetings”. I used one side of the adhesive to adhere to the glass, and the other side for foiling.

To adhere to the glass I removed a liner from the back side of the die cut and used a rubber brayer to roll over the die cut to firmly fasten it to the glass.  You can use a heat gun or hair dryer to warm the glass for a better bond.

After the adhesive liner was removed from the front side, I placed silver foil from the 3D Foam Holiday Embellishment Kit over the exposed adhesive. Remember to use the foil with the shiny side facing up, the dull side facing the adhesive. I rolled the brayer over the foil to press it onto the adhesive and then peeled the foil away and WOW!

Adhere silver rhinestones randomly above the verse and it’s ready to be displayed! You can find me at my blog: Creating…My Style.

Holiday Cards on Quietfire Design Blog Hop and Giveaway – Day 3

Today we highlight holiday cards on Day 3 of our Blog Hop and Giveaway with Quietfire Design! Inspiration coming from both design teams to be inspired with. Read to the end of the post for a chance to win one of the giveaways!

Latrice Murphy’s Count Your Blessings Card

It’s my first holiday card of the season! I’m sure there will be much more to follow. I love this “May Your Longest List” stamp from Quietfire Design, and I found my inspiration directly from it.

Holiday Cards and QuietFire Designs Blog Hop and Giveaway - Day 3 Count Your Blessings by Latrice Murphy for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

When I think of blessings I think of angels. I found the perfect angel shapes to cut from an electric cutting machine, and I covered one in silver shimmer ink.

Next, to keep with a holiday theme I added glitter covered snowflakes and dots using 3D Foam Snowflakes. With some subtle patterned paper and a couple of adhesive pearls the card came together.

Dana Tatar’s Merry Christmas Card

Christmas is such a special time of year. I like to put a lot of extra love into my handmade Christmas cards.

Holiday Cards and QuietFire Designs Blog Hop and Giveaway - Day 3 Merry Christmas Card by Dana Tatar for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

The foil from the 3D Foam Holiday Embellishment Kit is a lot of fun to use. I added it to the embossed cardstock and painted a metal die-cut sentiment for the front of the card.

Inside the card are a special stamped message and a foil accent strip. I share the full tutorial on my blog: They Call Me Tater Salad

Stenciled Holiday Cards on Quietfire Design Blog Hop and Giveaway – Day 2

We’re sharing stenciled holiday cards today on Day 2 of our Blog Hop and Giveaway with our friends at Quietfire Design! There is more eye candy to enjoy from both design teams. Be inspired and read to the end of the post for an opportunity to win one of the giveaways!

Yvonne van de Grijp’s Stenciled Merry Christmas Card

With a stenciled design, this card is all about simple layering with an emphasis on the Quietfire Design Merry Christmas 2 Metal Cutting Dies die cut and our 3D Foam Squares.

Stenciled Holiday Cards on QuietFire Designs Blog Hop and Giveaway - Day 2 Stenciled Merry Christmas Card by Yvonne van de Grijp for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

With a white card base, I layered with ice blue and dark blue cardstock using the E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips Refillable Dispenser to adhere to the card base. Next, I created a starry background by using Quietfire Design’s Leaf and Snow Sprays Stencil with white texture paste. I love the contrast!

Then affix the Quietfire Design Merry Christmas 2 die cut using 3D Foam Squares White Mix (smaller size). Note that I cut the 3D Foam Squares in half to fit the narrow lines of the die-cut. Finish the card using rhinestones and glitter glue.

Vicki Chrisman’s Golden Stenciled Christmas Card

This gorgeous stamp design motivates me to get started on my Christmas Cards. I love the look of foil papers, especially when making an elegant looking card.  Even though these gold papers are super slick and smooth, the Permanent Strips Refill in the E-Z Runner® Grand Refillable do the job with no problem. Once I stamped the beautiful Merry Christmas Flourished Tree – Set of 3 Stamps – Mounted onto the white paper, the permanent strips adhesive holds great to the foil paper.

Then I used Crafty Foam Tape White under the gold paper to give lift and dimension to the card.

The background of the card with the stars was created with the QuietFire Designs Butterflies and Stars Stencil. When using stencils I always use MyStik® Repositionable Dots to hold my stencil in place as I work. Once I have it in place, I used ink to create the stars. When finished, just rub the Repositionable Dots away with your finger. They don’t leave residue or marks and hold the stencil perfectly while I work. You could use the E-Z Runner Grand Repositionable Dots refill too!

The sentiment that came in this beautiful script set was stamped on the inside of the card.

Dimensional Cards on Quietfire Design Blog Hop and Giveaway – Day 1

Dimensional cards take center stage today as we start the week with a Blog Hop and Giveaway with Quietfire Design!  Both of our Design Teams have prepared fabulous projects for you! Enjoy and read through to the end and enter to win our giveaway!

Tracy McLennon’s Dimensional Always Wonderful Card

Today I am sharing my card created using Quietfire Design Stamps and Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L® adhesives. My inspiration was the beautifully scripted Quietfire Design stamp.

Dimensional Cards on QuietFire Designs Blog Hop and Giveaway - Day 1 Dimensional Always Wonderful Card by Tracy McLennon for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

I wanted to create a card that focused on the sentiment with a ton of dimension and a little bit of sparkle provided by some of my favourite adhesives.

Each cardstock layer is silver paper with Creative Photo Corners White, staggered and adhered with 3D Foam Squares. They’re not just for photos, the Creative Photo Corners create a frame around the stamped sentiment and the layers below it. Can you see the star the design creates?

Margie Higuchi’s Dimensional Holiday Thanks Card

My dimensional card is a great way to send a thank you during the holidays. Using Quietfire Design’s stencil and beautiful “Thanks” metal etched die, I can pair them with our 3D Foam Creative Embellishment Kit and Adhesive Dots Large Repositionable.

Adhesive Dots Large Repositionable are awesome because of their non-permanent bond that allows removal and repositioning without reapplication or damage to surfaces. I used them to hold down my stencil and card panel. They roll right off after use, without tearing or staining! For the “Thanks” die cut, to make it stand out I used the 3D Foam Creative Embellishment Kit with Foil for dimension and silver foil for a shiny silver element = perfect!

Using the Crafty Foam Tape, I secured the Creative Photo Corners Silver in the back and popped up the panel for extra dimension from my 7 x 5″ black card base.

Halloween Wishes Treat Box

Isn’t this treat box just adorable? Halloween – my favorite season for crafting is upon us!! Today, I’m sharing a CUTE treat box that is fast to make if you are looking to make many…or not.

Halloween Wishes Treat Box by AJ Otto for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Assembling a Fun Treat Box

This is such a “treat” to make for your favorite trick-or-treaters!

For ANYTHING that involves paper construction like a box/bag/container, I use the E-Z Runner® Grand Ultra Strong. It’s a clear double-sided tape and because it holds like nothing else, it earns the name ULTRA Srong. It’s initially tacky and strong, there’s no need to wait for it to hold strong.

Before you assemble your treat box, spritz with some fun spray ink to add interest and an extra bit of color. Then stamp and die cut your cute little characters and sentiment on white cardstock.

Color in the cute little Frankenstein guy with your Copics. To adhere him to your container, I used 3D Foam Squares Black Regular Size. Here I am using both the 3D Foam Squares Black Regular Size and 3D Foam Squares White Regular Size. But first…

Halloween Wishes Treat Box Image 2 by AJ Otto for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Wind a piece of twine twice around an oval die cut. Secure it with a Adhesive Dots Micro. With 3D Foam Squares White Regular Size added, adhere onto the treat box. Place your Frankenstein die cut onto the oval. Next, adhere a few sequins using Adhesive Dots Micro. Lastly, fill with your favorite candy of choice! 🙂

enjoy!!

How to Create a Personalized DIY Frame

I’m excited to share a fun DIY frame that is personalized for a super sweet little dancer. It’s something a little different from my normal scrapbooking or card making so check it out with me!

How to Create a Personalized DIY Frame by Latrice Murphy for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Gather Supplies for the Frame

Using an available design from my cutting machine, I just love the convenience and it’s perfect for what I had in mind for a younger girl’s gift. I gathered everything needed including a 5 x 7″ frame, two pink tones of cardstock for the ballet slippers, white cardstock for the background, black cardstock for letters. We can’t forget the adhesives: E-Z Dots® Permanent Refillable Dispenser and HomeHobby Dual Tip Glue Pen).

Personalize It

Begin the project using the Dual Tip Glue Pen to adhere the die cut ballet slippers together.

With the white cardstock trimmed to fit the inside of the frame, I position the slippers on top of the white cardstock using the E-Z Dots® Permanent Refillable Dispenser.

Note: I used the cut letters as a guide to place the slippers down and then adhered the letters with the Dual Tip Glue Pen. What a great way to personalize a gift just for her!

To finish off this piece I added some shimmer with some gold spray ink and Platinum ink. Just mist or flick the ink around the slippers to give it some extra subtle sparkle.

Let the inks dry completely before placing the project into the frame. This DIY project has so many possibilities! Try using a shadow box frame and adding little trinkets inside that hold special meaning to the gift recipeint.

I hope you give this frame project a try. Thanks for stopping by.

Elegant Flower Card with Dimensional Effect

Today’s project is an elegant, layered flower card. Using 3D Foam Squares for layering you will add that extra gorgeous dimensional effect on your card.

Hello everyone, Yvonne from Holland here today and I am super excited to share my very first blog post for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L® with you all.

Elegant Flower Card with Dimensional Effect by Yvonne van de Grijp for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Making my elegant flower card

Let’s start with the first layer of the card panel. Affix the patterned cardstock to the card front using the E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips Refillable Dispenser.

Then, affix the die cut to the card front using 3D Foam Squares Small. I had to cut some 3D Foam Squares in half to fit the narrow border.

Next, affix the embellishments to the card front using Dodz Adhesive Dots Mini. Because of its size and clear in color, it’s perfect to use!

 

A 3D Foam Square was used for the flower to create a dimensional effect. Finally, affix a sentiment using another 3D Foam Squares for a finished look.

And voila…your card is ready!

Pinecone Embellishments with Creative Photo Corners

Welcome back, crafty friends! Tracy here, and I love the holidays!! Today I have a tutorial on how to create these super cute and EASY Pinecone Embellishments with Creative Photo Corners. I love creating cards for family and friends. My holiday style is definitely classic, so I wanted to create an embellishment to compliment that.

How to Create Pinecone Embellishments with Creative Photo Corners.

Create a Pinecone Frame with Creative Photo Corners by Tracy McLennon for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Create a Pinecone Frame with Creative Photo Corners by Tracy McLennon for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Let’s get started by creating a base from kraft cardstock. Hand cut these shapes in a few different sizes. They do not need to be perfect, as they are going to get covered up.

Create a Pinecone Frame with Creative Photo Corners by Tracy McLennon for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L
I inked each Creative Photo Corner before adding it to the pinecone base. Start with one point at the bottom, the next layer with 2 points and next, 3 points. Each layer doesn’t add a point, you will just stagger and space them a little differently.

Play with the design and change the angles of the Creative Photo Corners a little bit too. Continue the layers right up to the top.

Once I had my pinecone completed, I moved on to the card base.

The Card Base

Add just a little bit more shine by placing Creative Photo Corners Gold to the green patterned paper layer.

On the back of the 6 x 6″ card background panel, I added Crafty Foam Tape for interest and dimension.

Once my background layers were complete, I was ready to embellish. So I added my pinecone, poinsettias and leaves using Adhesive Dots Large.

Birthday Girl With No Line Coloring

Good morning! Michele here with another card using the no line coloring technique.  I love that the image looks more like an illustration rather than a stamped image!

Creating the Birthday Girl Card.

First, I stamped my image with a pale grey ink and colored it with Copic markers. To give her hair and dress a bit of shine and glitter, I used a clear Wink of Stella pen.  Next, I adhered the image to a pink tag and blue background with Crafty Foam Tape to give it dimension.

Birthday Girl With No Line Coloring by Michele Kovack for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Because this cute tag needed a little something more, I dressed it up a bit by tying a ribbon through the top opening. Then I secured the flower and sprigs with Dodz Adhesive Dots Medium.  To embellish her dress and hair, I added a couple of teeny flowers using Adhesive Dots Micro. Finally, add the embellished tag on top of a layered tall card base.

I hope you try this technique on your next card! Thank you so much for stopping by today!

Create Colorful Backgrounds Using Adhesive Sheets

Creating colorful backgrounds are so much fun with our Adhesive Sheets and goes well beyond using them just as a traditional adhesive. We call this Wear Your Adhesive on the Outside.

Christine joining you with a scrapbook layout tutorial that can easily be applied to any paper crafting medium. Today I am going to show you how to create colorful backgrounds using Adhesive Sheets and that it is quick and easy!

Create Colorful Backgrounds Using Adhesive Sheets by Christine Meyer for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

This colorful layout combines a bunch of adhesives including Crafty Foam Tape, the E-Z Runner® Grand, and the Adhesive Sheets. By combining the Adhesive Sheets with Embossing Powder I was able to create a very different background.  It started off looking like a big mess. But as you will see in the video, it all came together!

Create Colorful Backgrounds Using Adhesive Sheets Process Video:

Here’s my process video walking you through how to create a colorful background to, therefore, make one to enhance your projects.

Adhesive Sheets are available in a variety of sizes. They are great for using with punches and electronic cutting systems because they won’t gum up your tools. I went a whole different route today, didn’t I??? By tearing and being random I was able to create splotches throughout the layout mimicking the look of paint splatters.  Additionally creating texture on the layout was a definite bonus. Meanwhile, as I was creating I truly didn’t know if it was going to work out. Eventually, it all came together in the end to be a vibrant layout packed with techniques!

Using the bright yellow embossing powder certainly made the background stand out more.  Imagine the possibilities of creating a colorful background using several embossing powders! Consequently, I’m looking forward to playing more with this adhesive and making it work for me! Be sure to tag us if you create colorful backgrounds using Adhesive Sheets so that we can see too!!

Thanks for coming by today!
