Easy Holiday Tags with Extreme Double-Sided Tape, Buttons and Glitter

Posted on December 7, 2016 by Judy Hayes

Hi everyone! It’s Judy here today with some fun and easy holiday tags with buttons, glitter and Extreme Double-Sided Tape! When I finally get to wrapping gifts, there’s no time for making tags, so it’s good to get these done now.

I started with tags that I die cut from card stock. The patterned papers that I used are from a holiday paper pad. Bits and pieces of scrap papers would work just as well.

For each tag, I used E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips Refillable Dispenser to fasten pattern paper. Then applied a strip of Extreme Double-Sided Tape ½ʺ and pressed it firmly onto the tag. Place an assortment of buttons with beads and sequins around.

Tip: a packaged collection of holiday colored buttons, sequins and beads made it easy!

Finally, I sprinkled red glitter over the buttons, etc. to fill in any space on the Extreme Double-Sided Tape ½ʺ. On the Merry & Bright tag, I added strips of Extreme Double-Sided Tape ⅛ʺ with a few sequins and glitter.

The verses were stamped with black ink and clear heat embossed. I added twine strings to these tags but they could simply be fastened to a gift with E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips Refillable Dispenser or Extreme Double-Sided Tape ½ʺ. Add the Extreme Double-Sided Tape ½ʺ now, then when it’s time to wrap gifts, simply remove tape backing and place on package!

These tags are fun to make! They’re kind of addicting! Let your imagination go and try your own combination of colors. Do you make your own tags?

Happy crafting!
Judy

Two Tips on How to Complete Holiday To-Do List Projects

Posted on December 5, 2016 by Erica Houghton

It’s December 5th, and Christmas is just 20 days away (eeekkk!). Got a LONG to-do list of holiday projects to finish? Two big projects to do this past weekend were co-worker gifts and Christmas cards, using a combination of Premium Double-Sided Tape 1/2″, Creative Photo Corners Silver, and a touch of twine.

Co-Worker GIft by Erica Houghton for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Co-worker Gifts: I bundled up coffee and hot chocolate k-cups with peppermint bark pieces and marshmallows in clear decorative bags. To tie up the bags, I used a 12″ piece of Twine to close…SO CUTE!

Christmas Cards: Each year I include a short, personal letter that summarizes our year. In previous years I’ve simply folded the letter and placed it inside the card, but Creative Photo Corners makes it super easy to include my letter. Did you know they come in Silver and Gold – perfect for the holidays!

I cut my letter down to size and then placed a small piece of Premium Double-Sided Tape 1/2″ near the top to keep my letter in place.

I added Creative Photo Corners Silver to all four corners, holding my personal letter in place with a decorative touch!

These projects are now complete and marked off my to-do list! I hope these ideas will help you quickly tackle items on your list!

Clear Shaker Ornament Tutorial

Posted on December 4, 2016 by Michele Kovack

Good morning! Michele here with a couple of festive shaker Christmas ornaments! I love using acetate for the base of the ornament because it is easy to fill with sequins and allows the Christmas lights to shine through! I made two for today’s post, one in a cool color scheme and the other in warm colors.

Clear Christmas shaker ornament tutorial by Michele Kovack

clear-ornament9

To make my ornaments I die cut 2 circles for each ornament.

clear-ornament7

White acrylic paint, dabbed on at the bottom of each circle made a “snowy” hill.

clear-ornament6

I sprinkled glitter over it while it was still wet.

clear-ornament-6

3D Creative Foam Sheets were used to die cut my evergreen trees. I also added in some smaller trees from the 3D Foam Trees.

clear-ornament5

They are sticky on both sides – I LOVE that! ….one side to stick to the acetate….

clear-ornament-4

….and the other for sprinkling glitter over!

clear-ornament3

I took silver twine to sew the ornament together. Right before closing it up, slip in a handful of sequins.

clear-ornament-2

This would be a perfect opening for those sequins!

To secure the jingle bells in place, I slipped a Dodz Adhesive Dots Small under each one. Here’s one last look!

Christmas Treats with Extreme Double-Sided Tape

Posted on December 1, 2016 by Amy Tsuruta

Hello and Happy December! It’s Amy here! Where have the days gone? I simply cannot believe that we’re already into December! I have a fun little giftie idea for you today using Extreme Double-Sided Tape 1/4″.

amytsuruta_cocoa1

I made Cocoa pockets! Here’s a peek at my supplies:

amytsuruta_cocoa2

I started off with an A2 card base that was top folded. I flipped it upside down so that the scoring was on the bottom. I trimmed the top panel down to 3 1/2 inches. The Extreme Double-Sided Tape 1/4″ is the perfect adhesive for this type of project. I constructed the pocket by adhering strips on either side of the pocket panel. I make sure to burnish the area with my bone folder.

amytsuruta_cocoa3

The cup/mug have been adhered with Thin 3D Foam Squares Mix White. All the other panels on my pocket front have been adhered with the E-Z Runner® Grand Dispenser .

amytsuruta_cocoa4

I finished off the fronts with wood veneer snowflakes. These will go postal to my kids who are in college.

How Dodz Adhesive Dots Help with Home Decor Projects

Posted on November 29, 2016 by AJ Otto

Hello! AJ here to share how you can use your Dodz Adhesive Dots anywhere in your home, including helping with your home decor projects.

ajotto-dodz3d-1

My daughter recently turned 13, and with that came the need for a room refresh. She has been asking for pictures of her friends to hang on her walls, so we did just that.

ajotto-dodz3d-2

I got these shadow boxes on clearance a while back and while the pictures aren’t square, I opted to use them for these prints anyways.

ajotto-dodz3d-3

As you can see, the back has black dots where the hardware is attached that can be seen through the glass, so I had to cover each one with a piece of white cardstock. I used the Dodz Adhesive Dots Small here.

ajotto-dodz3d-4

I thought the look of a floating picture would be fun to try, so I used the Dodz Adhesive Dots 3D and doubled them up.

ajotto-dodz3d-5

Here’s a close up of the final three all hung on her wall. Sorry for the side angle shot, best way to avoid glare and reflection on the pictures. You can easily swap the pics out with new ones, and or make them seasonal as well.

Enjoy!

Glitter Band Card with Premium Double-Sided Tape

Posted on November 28, 2016 by Judy Hayes

Hello everyone! Today, I’m sharing a card with a patterned glittery band that I created with Premium Double-Sided Tape 1ʺ, glitter and a stencil. I love how well the pattern shows!

judy_hayes_glitterbandcard-1

A word of caution if you try this technique. Use a heavy plastic stencil. Avoid any patterns with fine stencil cuts as they may not remove easily from the Premium Double-Sided Tape and could be damaged. I didn’t have any trouble with this stencil by peeling it slowly from the tape.

To make the glitter band, I started with a strip of Premium Double-Sided Tape 1ʺ applied to sage cardstock. Along each side I added Premium Double-Sided Tape ¼ʺ about ⅛ʺ from 1ʺ tape. Then I trimmed the cardstock close to tape and 5½ʺ long.

judy_hayes_glitterbandcard-2

Remove the backing from Premium Double-Sided Tape 1ʺ and center the stencil over it. I covered it with brown glitter, pressed it into the tape and then removed excess.

judy_hayes_glitterbandcard-3

Next I carefully removed the stencil.

judy_hayes_glitterbandcard-4

Sprinkle turquoise glitter over it, press it into the tape and remove excess.

judy_hayes_glitterbandcard-5

To make the pattern on the narrow tapes, I used the center of the stencil pattern. I used the same glitter process to apply brown glitter through stencil, remove stencil and apply turquoise glitter on each tape strip.

judy_hayes_glitterbandcard-6

My card is 4¼ x 5½ʺ. I made a score line along the bottom edge on the inside of the card. I fastened a narrow strip of sage cardstock along lower edge with E-Z Dots® Permanent Refillable Dispenser.

Then I fastened the glitter band with E-Z Dots® Permanent Refillable Dispenser.

I applied Premium Double-Sided Tape 1ʺ to back of sage cardstock. I die cut the greeting, removed the tape backing and fastened it to the card.

Add 3 score lines on each side of the greeting. These were scored from inside of card to make ridges on card front.

I hope I’ve inspired you today! Thanks for visiting!

Pink Christmas Card using Adhesive Dots Mini

Posted on November 27, 2016 by Lisa Adametz

Hi there! It’s Lisa on the blog today and I have a pretty in pink Christmas card to share with you using Adhesive Dots Mini to hold those sparkly sequins.

Pink Christmas Card by Lisa Adametz

To really bring out the color pink (which is what I wanted) I simply used a larger panel of pink cardstock and embossed it with an interesting pattern. Also in my wreath, the colors are in the red family, with touches of teal and blue. And green for the leaves.

I really didn’t want the card to look overly Christmas-y. So I used this soft plaid paper from Lawn Fawn in soft blue and pink.

Glittery stripes were added on top of the vellum using the HomeHobby Premium Double Sided 1″ Tape with a pretty clear glitter burnished in.

I added 3D Foam Squares White Regular to the back of my wreath and mounted it to the vellum square. Stamping the sentiment and embossing the vellum with your favorite embossing powder is next.

To adhere the vellum square AND to add interest? I added a bunch of fun sequins using the Adhesive Dots Mini. Some were really small and some are in the shape of snowflakes, but this size is perfect for all of them. I tucked a few of the Dodz under the vellum where the sequins were so they wouldn’t show. Works like a charm.

Twine was wrapped on the left side of the pink panel a few times before tying in a bow and Art Medium was added to stiffen the bow.

Here are a few alternate views for you to check out!

Hopefully in this photo you can see the glittery stripes and can tell that the Dodz Adhesive Dots Mini’s really ARE mini!! 😉
