Easy Happy Birthday Place Card Created with Adhesive Sheets

Posted on June 2, 2017 by Christine Emberson

Hi everyone, Christine here today with a pop up Happy Birthday place card. You could adorn a birthday table with these or affix to a gift box, either way they are simple to make with Adhesive Sheet 4 x 6″ and add a lovely touch to festivities.

CEmberson - Happy Birthday Placecard

I first selected an Adhesive Sheet 4 x 6″. Lifted the yellow release paper and placed my spotty patterned paper inside.

I smoothed it back down and positioned my die. Run this through my die cutting machine

CEmberson - Happy Birthday Placecard 2

I peeled away the backing to reveal that the adhesive from the sheet has transferred onto the back of my die cut.

Because this was a place card and it needed to stand, I cut two. They affix together perfectly because the adhesive is already in place, no messy glue!

I die cut some flowers to decorate the place card.

I assembled the flowers, positioned some mini stamens to the middle. Everything held in place on the reverse with Dodz Adhesive Dots 3D.

Summer Vacation Layout with E-Z Runner Grand Dispenser

Posted on June 1, 2017 by Latrice Murphy

Latrice here today with a summer vacation layout as we wind down to a couple of school days in Illinois. I am busy prepping activities for my three kids to stay busy from swimming, soccer, dance and such. No big vacation planned this time like last year’s (their first) cruise to the Bahamas. I wanted to scrapbook a few of my favorite photos from that trip of my daughter. She really soaked it all in and enjoyed herself. Learning about the culture really sparked something inside her. Here is the 12 x 12″ page I’ve created using the E-Z Runner® Grand Dispenser and a couple of the Dodz Adhesive Dots.

LatriceMurphy-Vacation Layout-6

I always try to get multiple photos on a page so I printed the images a little smaller at 4 x 4″ to get three photos on there vertically. To add more pictures without really filling up the page, you can print 3 x 3″ or 2 x 2″. How about trying those Fuji Instax pictures?

I used Paradise Found Beach Collection from Paper House Productions, as well as some coordinating cardstock I found from other companies in my stash.

LatriceMurphy-Vacation Layout-1

I chose a little beach paper, the gorgeous gold seashell overlay and a bracket shaped piece of cardstock to create my background.

LatriceMurphy-Vacation Layout-3

I love layers, but I do keep them simple. I ended up moving the kraft bracket cardstock over once the photos were added. Below you can see the Dodz Adhesive Dots are perfect to adhere the overlay piece because they are clear and double-sided. I used the Adhesive Dots Ultra Thin.

LatriceMurphy-Vacation Layout-2

I also use one of the Adhesive Dots Ultra Thin to hold a knot in place.

LatriceMurphy-Vacation Layout-4

Sometime I love using the Dodz Adhesive Dots 3D to raise up cards and such. They are sturdy and keep things in place perfectly. I just place one on each corner of the 3 x 4″ card.

LatriceMurphy-Vacation Layout-5

To finish the layout I added some letter stickers and more items from the Paper House Productions kit for my title, some hand written journaling and machine stitching.

LatriceMurphy-Vacation Layout-7

Can’t wait to snap some summer photos for this year. We still have one more day of school left! Kids are hanging in there.

Beach Day Scrapbook Layout featuring Creative Photo Corners

Posted on May 30, 2017 by Christine Meyer

With the unofficial start of summer well under way, it seemed time to dive into some beach photos and capture those memories on a scrapbook layout. It’s Christine, joining you today to showcase how I use a wide variety of adhesives on a layout.

Beach Day crapbook Layout & Tutorial by Christine Meyer for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Creating the Beach Day Layout

I love how a layout comes together when you combine a variety of adhesives. My first go to the E-Z Runner® Grand Refillable Dispenser. I use this ALL the time for just simple things like matting my photos.

ChristineMeyer-BeachDay4

Then comes adding dimension. A lot of the stickers I was working with already had dimension so I knew I needed to add it to my title. But I didn’t want too much dimension – because I thought that would just make things too bulky. Here’s the answer to that dilemma: Thin 3D Foam Squares!

ChristineMeyer-BeachDay5

These were absolutely perfect because they are thinner – 1 mm -than other foam adhesives, which are 2mm. They added just enough to make things work!

ChristineMeyer-BeachDay7

Working with a sand color left me craving a little more for my photographs. I knew i didn’t want to mat them further and I knew i didn’t want to add stickers. In come the Creative Photo Corners Mix Pack to jazz things up!

ChristineMeyer-BeachDay6

There are several color options and this kraft color was a great match for my sandy background!

ChristineMeyer-BeachDay3

So there you have it, all the adhesives you need to create a basic layout! Although let’s be honest there’s about a dozen more that you need for all the other embellishments and products out there right!?!

Gift Inspiration Cards with Self-Laminating Pouches

Posted on May 28, 2017 by Judy Hayes

Hello friends! Today, I’m sharing some gift inspiration cards that are made with Self-Laminating Pouches – Cards Small. I made these as a little gift to tuck in a graduation card. I also made simple coordinating graduate cards. I had so much fun putting these together that I plan to make a few for other occasions.

JudyHayes_LaminatedInspirationCards_Main1

Here you can see one side of each of the inspiration cards in front of a coordinating graduate card. I used a collection of papers and stickers from Bella Blvd™ called Make Your Mark. Fun bright colors!

JudyHayes_LaminatedInspirationCards1

I started by cutting patterned paper to the insert size for Self-Laminating Pouches – Cards Small (2¼ x 3½ʺ). The photo shows the front and back sides. (I made 2 to show both sides at the same time.) I stamped a verse on one side. On the other side, I used a verse from the paper collection. I used E-Z Runner® Ultra Refillable Dispenser to fasten it to the insert paper and added a tiny heart sticker. The edge is colored with a permanent red marker.

JudyHayes_LaminatedInspirationCards2

When both sides were finished, I placed it in one of Self-Laminating Pouches – Cards Small. It’s so easy! Place it between the layers, start peeling protective sheet from hinge side, press and smooth it over the insert. I rubbed it with my fingers to seal it well.

JudyHayes_LaminatedInspirationCards3

Here are both sides of this inspiration card once laminated.

JudyHayes_LaminatedInspirationCards_Main2b

This photo shows the other side of each of the inspiration cards.

The graduate cards are 3½ x 6¼ʺ and made from white cardstock. I fastened a patterned paper to front of each one using E-Z Runner® Ultra Refillable Dispenser. The greeting is stamped with black ink on white card stock and fastened with E-Z Runner® Ultra Refillable Dispenser. Very quick and simple design!

Thanks for visiting today!

Gift Cookie Jar using Adhesive Sheets

Posted on May 27, 2017 by Vicki Chrisman

Hello! Vicki here! I love to bake, and I love to share baked goodies with friends and family. I also love thrift store and flea market finds, so in this case they all came together. I recently found this glass container with a lid that caught my eye, ( and was a great price, which is always a bonus). I baked up some of my famous Chocolate Chip cookies and while they were cooling, I got busy dressing up my container.

Get your happy on cookie jar

When I give someone something homemade I really like to share the recipe with them. I added the recipe and the “Get your Happy on” title to the jar with Adhesive Sheets 4×6″. The 4 x 6″ size was great for this project. The do such a great job of adhering right to the edge all the way around.

Get your happy on cookie jar recipe

These are great for die cut pieces but are also great for pieces like this, that are being added to something with a curve.

Get your happy on cookie jar 2

It’s a easy way to dress up a jar, or even repurpose a can.

Once I have the paper pieces added, I tied a piece of ribbon around the opening of the jar and added a few flowers. Adhesive Dots Large Repositionable worked great for adding these.

I think I know just who will be getting a little something for their sweet tooth. I hope this easy to put together container makes them smile.

Thank You Notebook with Extreme Double-Sided Tape

Posted on May 25, 2017 by Erica Houghton

Hello there! It’s Erica here today to share a ‘thank you’ notebook featuring Extreme Double-Sided Tape 1/4″ and Extreme Double-Sided Tape 1/2″.

With the end of the school year drawing near you may find yourself shopping for the perfect end-of-the-year teacher gift. How about a pretty, handmade gift to say ‘thank you’?

Thank You Notebook by Erica Houghton for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

I started by altering a 4 x 6″ brag book. It was originally an album and I removed the page protectors.

Next I cut a 4.5 x 6.5″ rectangle from pattern paper and adhered it to the front of the album using Extreme Double-Sided Tape 1/4″.

To decorate the front I started by adhering two tags to the front of the album using Extreme Double-Sided Tape 1/4″.

On one of the tag I stamped ‘thank you’.

Finally, using Extreme Double-Sided Tape 1/2″ I adhered more pattern paper, flowers, and flair. I adhered a ‘to-do list’ notepad inside the album to create a notebook and then added a colorful pen to complete the project!

Here are a few close-ups:

Camper Card Using Dodz and Crafty Foam Tape!

Posted on May 24, 2017 by Michele Kovack

Good morning! Michele here with a fun shaped camper card!

Road Trip Camper Card by Michele Kovack for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Making the Camper Card

To cut the camper shape, I used my Silhouette. Depth was added to the windows and door using Crafty Foam Tape White. I wanted to add a bit of sparkle, so I placed a thin layer of glue using the Dual Tip Glue Pen and then sprinkled glitter over it.

Next I added pearls to the pennant using Adhesive Dots Micro. then I adhered the pennants using Dodz Adhesive Dots Mini. For the layers of the camper, to make the window pop a bit, I added Crafty Foam Tape White.

Memory Keeping in a Traveller’s Notebook

Posted on May 22, 2017 by Stephanie Schütze

Hi there, it’s Stephanie here today with a new Smash Page in my Traveller’s Notebook using E-Z Runner® Ultra Refillable Dispenser and 3D Foam Squares Mix White from Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L®.

notebook_0

This page is about my love for special sea food from “Gosch” Germany. It’s a native company known for delicious dishes with fish from North Sea.

notebook_1

My first step was to choose some paper scraps, ephemeras and a photo. I adhered a paper base for my photo with the E-Z Runner® Ultra Refillable Dispenser onto my right page of the Traveller’s Notebook. The I added my photo and some paper scraps and washi tapes on the left page. I added some flowers with the 3D Foam Squares Mix White for decoration and of course my title and journaling.
