Ruffle Border Tutorial with Extreme Double-Sided Tape

Posted on July 21, 2017 by Tracy McLennon

Hey crafty friends! Tracy McLennon here with a fun little tutorial using Extreme Double-Sided Tape 1/8″ and my favourite go to embellishment, ribbon. I thought I would create a glitzy layout perfect for fancy prom photos or even a wedding photo. Here is all you need to know.

Here are the basics of what I started with to create my layout, paired with the Yes Please Collection from My Mind’s Eye.

This ruffle ribbon border is SO easy to do, and can be done with all sorts of ribbon, lace and trim. Once I had the base of my layout created, I adhered a strip of my Extreme Double Sided Tape 1/8″ across the entire layout. I also added a small piece of the same adhesive on the back side of my layout on both sides of the strip that you laid down for the border. Remove the adhesive covering from one of the strips on the back side and attach your piece of ribbon.

Flip to the front side and remove the adhesive covering from the long strip across your layout. Then I simply took the ribbon and tapped it onto the adhesive in a tight ruffle pattern. If you see your ruffle is going off kilter…not a problem, just pull the ribbon up and re-ruffle.

I added a second strip of the Extreme Double-Sided Tape on top of the ruffle I just created to add the sequins trim.

My ribbon ruffle is pretty thick, so when it came to attaching my matted photo I used my Crafty Foam Tape. I actually doubled it, 2 layers of the foam tape at the top and bottom on my photo. Another classic looking favourite of mine are Creative Photo Corners.

Beach Babe | Self-Laminating Tag on a Scrapbook Layout

Posted on July 20, 2017 by Jana Maiwald-McCarthy

Hello everyone, Jana here with a fun new layout using something fun – Self-Laminating Tags with Loops. This project is about my little boy when he was 4 and having a very great time on the beach.

I tried something new so I chose the Self-Laminating Tags with Loops and OH MY, I am totally in love how this turned out! The color from the tag is so perfect for this page!

Sometimes you don’t know what to use and then you have an idea that pops into your mind…I am so happy about this one! I also added some texture with some 3D Foam Party Shapes! I used sand…a nice detail and it’s sticky enough!

I used 3D Foam Squares and my favorite Crafty Foam Tape for dimension. For this Project I also used the E-Z Runner® Ultra Refillable Dispenser

There is also a little Process Video for you to watch

Christmas in July Made Simple with Extreme Double-Sided Tape

Posted on July 19, 2017 by Christine Emberson

Hi everyone, Christine here today with a Christmas in July project.  Every year I tell myself to start my Christmas ‘makes’ earlier, and this year I may have just listened! I’m making these adorable little bags to fill with gift vouchers/cards.

Christmas in July by Christine Emberson

Let’s Get Started!

The bag is two die cuts.  To ensure they stay affixed I used Extreme Double-Sided Tape 1/2″.  This is permanent and really strong. The red vinyl backing is easy to remove.

The decoration for the front of the bag is layered die cuts. Simply affix them with 3D Foam Squares White Small and 3D Foam Squares White Regular.  These magical squares come in a mixed pack too!

All ready for Christmas with the decoration in place and the little printed sentiment embellishment.

Now I just need to make a dozen more…

Embroidery Hoop Wreath Tutorial | Choosing the Best Adhesive for the Job

Posted on July 17, 2017 by Vicki Chrisman

Hello everyone! Vicki here today to share a fun Summer project using an embroidery hoop for your wall or front door. I’ll show you how I use specific Adhesives that I find work best for the job at hand.

I have been loving all the fun projects I have been seeing using these large wood embroidery hoops.  I have created projects with them before but this one is a big different.  It turned out really cute.

Summer Loving Embroidery Hoop Wreath Tutorial by Vicki Chrisman for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

How to Make the Embroidery Hoop Wreath

The HomeHobby Dual Tip Glue Pen worked great for this project. The wide tip worked around the back side of the hoops to add the paper backgrounds. For this, I painted my hoops white before I started. Once the glue was dry, all I had to do was trim away any excess paper.

I popped the lid on and flipped it around to use the fine tip on the other end. It worked perfectly for these smaller areas.

Flower and leaf pieces will be added around the edge of the inside hoop.  To make them look layered and have dimension, I used 3D Foam Squares White Regular.

For the ephemera pieces that I am placing directly down to the background, I used my E-Z Runner® Grand.

You can see in the photo below, that by layering and adding 3D Foam Squares to some pieces of ephemera, while leaving other pieces flat on the background sheet, really creates a dimensional look.

This project came together fairly quickly. You could create one for every season! I hope you are inspired to make one yourself.

Thank you so much for stopping by!

Rolled Magazine Cards with 3D Foam Creative Sheets and Frames

Posted on July 16, 2017 by Dana Tatar

Hello friends! I have had an amazing time as a Guest Designer the last 3 months. For my final project, I created a fun and colorful card set using rolled magazine pages and 3D Foam Frames + 3D Foam Creative Sheets.

Rolled Magazine Cards by GDT Dana Tatar for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

I took a break from the Summer heat and used up some of my stash to create these funky cards. The selection of dry adhesives is amazing and I used four different types here to create dimension all while keeping my hands clean and avoiding drying time.

I cut, folded, and layered cardstock for two card bases, securing the paper with an E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips Refillable Dispenser. Next, I added a 3D Foam Frame to the front of each card, which I then covered with glitter.

I rolled up magazine pages and secured them with a strip of Premium Double-Sided Tape 1/4″. Then, I die-cut a heart and butterfly from a 3D Foam Creative Sheet. I pressed the rolled magazine pages onto the 3D die cuts, trimmed the excess paper from the edges, and stuck them to the front of the cards. I finished each card with a layered cardstock sticker.

I hope I have inspired you today! If you’ve enjoyed my projects, you can find more of my work on my blog, They Call Me Tatar Salad.

30 Minute Birthday Card Set with HomeHobby Dual Tip Glue Pen

Posted on July 14, 2017 by Latrice Murphy

Happy Friday + Summer Break! It seems like we haven’t had time to slow down at all. With three kids always being invited to birthday parties, I needed to refill my stash quickly over the last couple weeks. I have an idea using Dual Tip Glue Pen to create a card set that only took about 30 minutes to complete. Perfect for boys or girls and easily customizable with what you have on hand.

First off I gathered my items. Here are all the adhesives plus the cards I wanted to use and washi tapes to coordinate and stickers. My go to adhesive for wood veneer is always the Home and Hobby Dual Tip Glue Pen. Also when using simple stickers I add 3D Foam Squares – White Regular to raise them up for some dimension.

Tip: When punching multiple items stack them so each one is the same. I did this for all four card bases.

Next I used four 3D Foam Squares – White Regular on the back of each circle “happy birthday” sticker.

After adding a simple strip of coordinating washi tape I then used the fine tip of the Dual Tip Glue Pen to adhere the wood veneer pieces.

I love anything rainbow and really am happy how this set turned out in the end. I’ll be making more to keep my stash full with other sentiments or break out some stamps to really have some fun.

Thanks for checking out my birthday card set in 30 minutes!

Altered Chest of Drawers with Premium Double-Sided Tape

Posted on July 13, 2017 by Erica Houghton

Today I’m sharing an altered back-to-school themed chest of drawers using Premium Double-Sided Tape 1/2″ with E-Z Runner® Ultra Refillable Dispenser and Adhesive Dots Small.

Altered Chest of Drawers with Premium Double-Sided Tape by Erica Houghton for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

I first started by forming the drawers. These were chipboard pieces that had to be folded and adhered into place. I used the Premium Double-Sided Tape 1/2″ to attached each side together.

Next, I traced, cut out, and adhered pattern paper to the front and back of the chest of drawers using the E-Z Runner® Ultra Refillable Dispenser.

Finally, I covered the front, back and inside of each drawer with pattern paper using the Premium Double-Sided Tape 1/2″. This durable double-sided tape ensures my pattern paper remains intact, even after a little wear and tear as the drawers are pulled out and pushed in.

Here are a few close-ups (note: I used Adhesive Dots Small to adhere some of the smaller embellishments, including the flowers and banners):

Glitter Feather Layout using Dual Tip Glue Pen

Posted on July 11, 2017 by Tracy McLennon

Hey there crafty friends! Today I have an easy glitter embellishment tutorial using our Dual Tip Glue Pen and some of my other favourites.

I don’t know about you, but I LOVE a little sparkle. Today I thought I would show you how easy it is to add sparkle using the Dual Tip Glue Pen.

First, I took my die cut feathers and inked the edges in gold ink.

Then I used the thick end of the Dual Tip Glue Pen and painted on the liquid adhesive where I wanted my gold glitter to be. Sprinkle with glitter and tap off the excess and let dry.

Once dry then I simply added the feathers to my layout using 3D Foam Squares Black Regular. I added my pearls, buttons and sequins using my Dodz Adhesive Dots Mini.

Another perfect golden accent came in the form of these Creative Photo Corners Mix.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Thinking Outside the Box in Creating Soccer Birthday Party Invites

Posted on July 9, 2017 by Christine Meyer

It’s birthday season in our house! What do you do with craft supplies and Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L® products? Think outside of the box by making ONE OF A KIND party invitations, of course! Christine joining you today to show how created these Soccer Birthday Party Invites using several of our fabulous adhesives!

Soccer Birthday Party Invites using Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Once I got the ideas in my head and started working these came together in a quick period of time! I started by cutting a couple of cardstock circles on my manual die cut machine.

Thin 3D Foam Squares went in between the green and blue layer to add some dimension.

Then I attached them to the clear tubes with Adhesive Lines. These were nice and long so I just needed one!

I punched out three coordinating stars and added those using Adhesive Dots Mini!

Last but not least I rolled up my invitations and sealed it with E-Z Dots® Repositionable Runner. These were perfect for little hands to unseal them and having seen a little boy open it, he thought that was pretty neat! Then he could roll it back up, seal it, and tuck it back in!

Want to check out how I made these? View Soccer Birthday Party Invites video below!

All in all this was a super fun project and watching my little guy deliver them to his neighborhood friends was the icing on the cake!
