Happy Birthday Card with Adhesive Dots Flower Centers

Posted on March 4, 2017 by Margie Higuchi

Today I made a very special card for a special lady – my mom! Happy Birthday!! Along with loads of dimension, I used Adhesive Dots Small and glitter to create a sparkly flower center. Would you use this technique? Give it a try!

Happy Birthday Card w Glitterly Adhesive Dot Flower Center by Margie Higuchi for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Let’s start with the flower die cuts. I die-cut, embossed and then stencil through the die with ink to highlight its embossed design.

MargieHiguchi 500 HappyBirthdayMomCd 030417 Step1

Next I embossed a 4.0 x 5.25 inch piece of dark pink cardstock with an embossing folder to make my A2-sized (4.25 x 5.50 inch) card panel. Cut and embossed a leafy vine in green cardstock.

MargieHiguchi 500 HappyBirthdayMomCd 030417 Step2

I wanted a different kind of dimension so I cut the dark pink card panel one third from the bottom to leave space in between to stamp my sentiment. Using Crafty Foam Tape – Black, it give the panels a lift.

Using the two piece card panel as my guide, I lined up the sentiment in my stamp placement tool for a perfect imprint.

Now my favorite part! Making those glittery flower centers 🙂 I placed an Adhesive Dots Small in the center, rub and lift off liner gently. Then pour on the glitter over the adhesive dot, press and shake off excess. SUPER EASY + FAST!

Next I trimmed the leafy vine and adhered with the Adhesive Dots Small (behind the leaves), then adhered flowers with 3D Foam Squares Regular White on top for extra dimension.

Multilayered Card with E-Z Runner

Posted on March 1, 2017 by Amy Tsuruta

Hello, it’s Amy here, Happy March!  Whether you like to design clean and simple or multilayers, a combination of E-Z Runner Permanent and 3D Foam Squares will work for you.

Amy Tsuruta-Otter Chaos

This looks like a relatively clean and simple design but the portal window actually consists of 4 layers.  The E-Z Runner Permanent is easy to control in small spaces, like the rim of the window.

Here’s a peek at my supplies:

Amy Tsuruta-Otter Chaos2

The base of my window is the panel with the sailboat and waves.  I started with that first and then die cut it into a circle.  My second layer are the otters.  I adhered them with the E-Z Runner Permanent onto the sailboat layer.

I used the E-Z Runner Permanent to adhere the front of the portal window (the one with the circles) to the back of the portal window which is a white panel to coordinate with my card base.  When those were attached to each other I used the E-Z Runner Permanent to adhere it to the stamped panels

Amy Tsuruta-Otter Chaos3

The window was then adhered to the cardbase with 3D Foam Squares.

That’s it for me today.  I hope you have a great rest of the week!

A Flower and Lace Birthday Card

Posted on February 27, 2017 by Judy Hayes

Hello everyone!  Judy here today with a vintage looking birthday card that features twine, lace and texture ribbons. Adhesive products I used are Adhesive Dots Medium, Adhesive Dots 3D, E-Z Runner® Ultra Refillable Dispenser, Thin 3D Foam Squares Mix White, Premium Double-Sided Tape ¼ʺ.

judy_hayes-Flower_Birthday_Card2

I’ve used  Adhesive Dots Medium to assemble the flower and also to hold the greenery in place. The flower is die cut from the same color cardstock as the greenery and colored with inks! The blue strips peaking from behind the texture ribbon is same sage paper inked with blue. An Adhesive Dots 3D pops up the flower.  It’s layered over a piece of lace ribbon and texture ribbons plus loops of twine.  I’ve inked the texture ribbon to add color. Several  Adhesive Dots Medium hidden behind the flower and one at the end hold the lace ribbon onto the texture ribbon. I’ve used Premium Double-Sided Tape ¼ʺ to fasten the texture ribbon to strips of inked cardstock on each edge.  It holds well on the fabric.  I’ve created the background paper with inks, stencils and script stamp.  It’s fastened to the top fold card with E-Z Runner® Ultra Refillable Dispenser.  My favorite adhesive!  It goes on so easy and holds great!  The greeting and verse are popped up with Thin 3D Foam Squares Mix White.

I adhered my circular clover embellishments with Adhesive Dots 3D. These gave them dimension so they didn’t blend in with the pattern paper. I then adhered a few sequins and my title with Adhesive Dots Mini – I love the size of these, they’re perfect for sequins!

Lunchbox Cards with Crafty Foam Tape

Posted on February 24, 2017 by Michele Kovack

Good morning! Michele here with some cute little stampy  cards that I popped up with Crafty Foam Tape – aren’t they adorable?

When my kids were younger, I slipped these babies into their lunch bags as a reminder of how much I love them. Now I send them to my college son and occasionally leave one for my husband! Small in size of just 3 x 3″, stamped in black ink and colored with Copic Markers.

love you notecards

I created a simple water colored background for each image using water color markers. The image was cut using a die and then I threaded some black twine through it and tied it in a bow.

love cards4

Each piece was layered using Crafty Foam Tape. I used the Dual Tip Glue Pen to adhere each of my sequins and my little felt heart.

love cards5

The sentiment was stamped on black paper with Versamark and embossed in white.  I used Crafty Foam Tape to adhere that as well.

love you cards3

Everyone loves a little sunshine in their day….and this is such an easy way to do it!

How to Create a Tattered Florals Gift Box

Posted on February 23, 2017 by Guest Blogger

Hi all! Tami Mayberry here with you to share another quick and easy project you can create using Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L® products.  More than once I have had a small gift or gift card to give but no small bag or box on hand. Sometimes I was also unable to find one in the store. That dilemma, paired with the fact that the closest store is a 20-30 minute drive lead me to learn that I can quickly, easily and inexpensively create my own custom box.  Today, I’m going to show you how!

How to Create a Tattered Florals Gift Box by Tami Mayberry for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

First we will create the box lid. I wanted to add some extra interest and coordinate my box to the gold thread I was using so I added some gold foil to the stripes of my patterned paper (Steps 1-4). This technique is a fun and easy way to dress up your favorite patterned papers and can be used to add accents to any project. No patterned paper? No problem. You can even use the same basic principle to make your own patterned paper from plain cardstock; simply use the process outlined below with one or more colors of foil to create the desired pattern.

  1. Cut patterned paper into a 5 1/8-inch square.

Tami_Feb23_Photo1

  1. Line chosen stripes with Extreme Double-Sided Tape ⅛ʺ.

Tami_Feb23_Photo2

  1. Remove tape backing; place foil onto exposed surface. Burnish and remove sheet to expose foiled surface.

Tami_Feb23_Photo3

  1. Continue Step 3 until all exposed areas are covered with foil.

Tami_Feb23_Photo4

  1. Score square 1-inch from each edge. Cut along score line from top edge to where vertical and horizontal score lines meet. Repeat in the same manner from bottom edge.

Tami_Feb23_Photo5

  1. Fold along score lines adhering flaps with E-Z Runner® Ultra Refillable Dispenser.

Tami_Feb23_Photo6

  1. For box bottom, cut a 7-inch square from patterned paper. Repeat steps 5 and 6 scoring 2-inches from each edge.

Tami_Feb23_Photo7

  1. Place lid onto base and you have the completed box ready to embellish.

Tami_Feb23_Photo8

  1. Die-cut two flowers from patterned paper; layer together using 3D Foam Squares White Small.

  1. Thread button with string; attach to center of flower using Dodz Adhesive Dots Medium.
  1. Wrap box with gold string; attach flower to top of box using Dodz Adhesive Dots Medium.

Keepsake Box

Posted on February 19, 2017 by Christine Emberson

Hi everyone, Christine here today with a keepsake box. I’ve decorated this using  Art Medium.

CEmberson - Heart Box 1

Art medium is a liquid glue, sealer and varnish all in one and can be used on many surfaces.

I first of all applied it to a chipboard heart, positioned patterned paper and it affixed perfectly.

CEmberson - Heart Box 3

Once dry I used an emery board to sand the edges of the heart.

CEmberson - Heart Box 4

I applied another coat to act as a varnish.  I just used a regular paintbrush and it went on smoothly and effortlessly.

CEmberson - Heart Box 5

I selected a papier-mache box, applied white paint to the lid in a distressed fashion.

CEmberson - Heart Box 6

Once dry I attached the heart to the box lid with Premium Double-Sided Tape 1/2″.

CEmberson - Heart Box 7

Finishing touch, a die cut heard and flower affixed with 3D Foam Squares, White Small.  Tied twine around the lower section of the box.
