Spring!

Posted on March 10, 2016 by Michele Kovack

Good morning to you! Michele here with a card all ready for spring! Easter is around the corner, we change our clocks forward this weekend, and the temps in Chicago have been in the balmy 60’s! I die cut the egg shape, stamped, embossed, and inked it. I cut the larger circle and adhered it to the egg with E-Z Squares®.

Spring! Egg Shaped Card by Michele Kovack

The smaller circle was cut, inked, and attached using Crafty Foam Tape in white. I alternated the smaller ovals using either E-Z Squares® or Crafty Foam Tape. I tied the bow around the top of the egg and secured everything in place using Dodz™-small.

I used Dodz™-small for the butterfly and sequins too! For a final touch I added a sentiment sticker.

Thank you for popping by today!

Scrapbooking Layout “Swan” with the E-Z Runner® Permanent Fine Adhesive Dispenser

Posted on March 8, 2016 by Stephanie Schütze

Hi there,

it’s Stephanie here today and I want to show you a simple Scrapbooking Layout “Swan” with my new favorite adhesive from Scrapbook Adhesives by 3l. I used the fabulous E-Z Runner® Permanent Fine Adhesive Dispenser.

Stephanie_LayoutSwan_1

As you can see it’s a very simple Scrapbooking Page with not much layering or different papers. But I have some complex cut outs I needed to adhere. For my sketched swan and the paper waves I used the E-Z Runner® Permanent Fine Adhesive Dispenser. This dispenser it’s a permanent, very sticky, double-sided adhesive that goes on slightly opaque and will dry clearer over time. And the important thing is, that the adhesives can be well applied, precisely at the points that are needed, even if your cut outs are round, wavy or with many corners.

Maybe you are wondering why there are so many swans on this layout. 😉 The page tells a beautiful day in a children’s area where there were many rides. Among other things, there was a swan carousel and my little girl couldn’t stop and wanted to go there again and again. She sat ultimately a few laps alone in the carousel because we had already dizzy. Definitely a memorable day.

Thanks for visiting us today!

I wish you a nice creative day!

Adore Scrapbook Page Using 3D Foam Hearts

Posted on March 6, 2016 by Laurel Seabrook

Hi everyone, Laurel here and I have a layout to share.

I don’t scrapbook nearly as much as I used to, nor as much as I want to…just hard to find the time.

This photo collage is from January of last year… where does the time go? I am normally the family photographer so I am not often in the pictures. I took these selfies of my granddaughter and I so of course I had to scrap them 🙂 Adhering all of my papers and photo is very easy using the E-Z Runner® Grand Permanent Strips (150′) Home & Hobby.

I then wanted to add some heart accents and the 3D Foam Hearts were the perfect accent as they have a bit of dimension for added interest. I adhered some glitter to the hearts then adhered them to the page, easy peesy! Finally, to be sure the title would stay in place I used some Dodz™ Small.

Easter Treat Boxes

Posted on March 5, 2016 by Erica Houghton

Who needs an Easter basket when you can make cute Easter boxes that are perfect for holding sweet treats. It’s Erica and today I’m sharing Easter treat boxes.

I started with a match box die and then scored the fold lines placing pieces of Extreme Double-Sided Tape 1/2″ along the top and bottom lines. I folded the match box and then tied a piece of Twine around the match box lid.

Using a DODZ I adhered the piece of twine in place. Finally, using Crafty Foam Tape White I added dimension to my embellishment and then centered and adhered it to the top of my box.

I then filled each box with yummy pastel candy corn!

Hi everyone, Christine here today with a simple cut out card made effective with Crafty Foam Tape. Can you tell I’m craving Spring here in the UK, it feels like a long Winter!

To make the cut out dimensional I turned to my trusty Crafty Foam Tape.

You Are Amazing Gift Pouch

Posted on February 29, 2016 by AJ Otto

Hello! It’s AJ sharing a sweet gift giving pouch idea.

You are Amazing Gift Pouch tutorial by AJ Otto for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

One of my newest faves is any cute new box/pouch/bag you can dress up and fill with treats, it’s sure to be a hit!

You are Amazing Gift Pouch tutorial by AJ Otto for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L And, to assemble boxes, you need really great strong adhesive! We recently released this fabby new one, E-Z Runner® Ultra Refillable Dispenser. This new adhesives is immediately tacky and strong enough to assemble your boxes, bags, etc.

You are Amazing Gift Pouch tutorial by AJ Otto for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L And, my favorite part- it’s clear! Here I added a strip to the tab that holds the sides together.

You are Amazing Gift Pouch tutorial by AJ Otto for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L Here’s my adorable much all assembled and just waiting to be dressed up. 🙂 I decided a few stripes of glitter down the front would be in order, so I used the Premium Double-Sided Tape in the 1/8″ and the 1/4″ sizes and covered each with a different color.

You are Amazing Gift Pouch tutorial by AJ Otto for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

I die cut some fun patterned paper that will contrast against the kraft color, and stamped a sentiment on to a circle. Popped the circle up with some 3D Foam Squares in black to add a little dimension. I adhered the die cuts to the front flap of the pouch with a little bit of thread peeking out from behind and am need to finish it off with a few sequins.

You are Amazing Gift Pouch tutorial by AJ Otto for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L This is HANDS down the MOST exciting thing ever!!! Adhesive Dots MINI!!!!!!!!!!!! Yes, I am totally shouting here, but these are the.perfect.size for sequins! Just a hair smaller in circumference from the average sequin size as you can see.

You are Amazing Gift Pouch tutorial by AJ Otto for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Here’s a close up of my finished pouch. I just love how that premium tape holds glitter, not only is it great for hold on cards/boxes etc, it is an awesome embellishment as well! I am constantly adding a strip of glitter here and there to projects now.

Who wouldn’t love a much filled with something a little sweet dressed up like this? 😉

enjoy! AJ

Feminine Sympathy Card Using New Adhesive Products

Posted on February 27, 2016 by Lisa Adametz

Hi everyone! It’s Lisa on the blog today sharing a sympathy card I made. These are super tough for me to make (are they for you, too). I always want to convey the right emotion and really want it to be from the heart and not generic. I guess that’s why they are the hardest card for me to make.

LisaAdametz-ThinkingofYou-02272015-1

I stamped the flower onto watercolor paper and heat embossed it, then used watercolor pencils to color it in. Using the Pigment Powder in Wine , mix a tiny amount of pigment and water together. Then you’re able paint with it. I added mine to the center and darker areas simply with a very small, fine-tipped paintbrush.

Using the brand new Adhesive Dots Mini on the back of small embellishments is a breeze! I love these!! You can’t tell they’re even there and they won’t budge. (Ask me how I know. 😉 )

LisaAdametz-ThinkingofYou-02272015-3

All pieces were adhered using the brand-new E-Z Runner® Ultra Refillable Dispenser. This adhesive is super strong and just glides across your paper. I also die-cut and popped up my floral piece using 3D Foam Squares – Black Mix.

LisaAdametz-ThinkingofYou-02272015-2

Making a Sympathy Card is never fun, but it should reflect you and your personality and your love for the person you made it for. I hope my dear friend, Holly, knows how much I love her and how sorry I am for her loss.
