Romantic Congratulations Card

Posted on September 17, 2024 by Yvonne van de Grijp

Hi everyone, Yvonne here with a tutorial on how to make this lovely Romantic Congratulations Card. This elegant card is fairly easy to create and I love how I custom created my accent with a simple step. Shall we get started?

Romantic Congratulations Card by Yvonne van de Grijp for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Top Card Panel

To create the top card panel for the Romantic Congratulations Card start by stamping some leaves onto white cardstock using a salmon ink pad. Next die-cut and emboss to a rectangle card panel.

Then use the Dual Tip Glue Pen to draw lines on the leaves. Next, sprinkle glitter upon it and let it dry. It’s that simple to give your stamp image a little extra touch!

Card Base

I first die-cut and embossed two nested dies from gold cardstock to create the Romantic Congratulations Card’s card base. Designer’s Tip: use washi tape to secure the dies to avoid shifting when die-cutting.

Adhere the stamped card panel to the gold card panel with 3D Foam Squares White Regular Size for dimension. Next, mat a salmon card panel using the E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips Refillable Dispenser. Lastly, place the layered panel on a white card base with the same adhesive.

Embellishing the Card

Stamp a sentiment onto white cardstock using a black ink pad. Then cut out the sentiment with scissors, and adhere to the card using 3D Foam Squares White Regular Size. Next, secure a flower and some leaves onto the card with Adhesive Dots Medium.

I randomly stamped some text onto the card using a soft grey ink pad for a finishing touch. And voilá, your Romantic Congratulations Card is ready. I hope you enjoyed this tutorial and wish you happy crafting!

Spooky Halloween Gift Tags

Posted on September 15, 2024 by Lara Scott

Hello, L ara here today! Fall is pretty much the only season I miss. Texas doesn’t have fall – just less hot. With fall in mind, I love to create Halloween tags! They’re great additions on gifts, tables as place cards, or an accent on a scrapbook page or mini album. Put them on sweet treats for all the Trick or Treaters.

These 3 x 6.5″ Spooky Halloween gift tags (well maybe not so spooky) are quick and easy to create. Using my Halloween stash, I created a couple of tags with random pieces of ephemera collected and what I had designed. Watch for a few more sets…it’s addicting! LOL!

Spooky Halloween Gift Tags by Lara Scott for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Gather Up Supplies for the Halloween Gift Tags

Here are the products I used to create the tags.

Black Spider Tag

For this tag, I used black cardstock which I cut about 2.25″ longer and scored to make a pocket. I stamped the spider web stamp with clear Versamark ink and heat embossed it with clear embossing powder. The black texture paper and the Halloween Banner were adhered with Crafty Power Tape Polybag 81ft, while the pocket was created using Extreme Double-Sided Tape 1/4in. To give the spider circle dimension I used the 3D Foam Squares White Regular stacked to add even more height. Add an extra tag and some butcher’s twine and you have Spooky Tag #1

Witch and Cat Tag

This spooky tag was created with black and white striped patterned paper. I used the 3D Foam Squares White Regular on October 31 to adhere it to the smaller witch tag. The gold half beads from Buttons Galore and the cat die cut were all attached with Adhesive Dots Small. I added some silky-ish black ribbon and you had the second spooky Halloween Gift Tag.

Happy Crafting!

Number Birthday Card

Posted on September 13, 2024 by Judy Hayes

Hi, Judy here today! The idea for this Number Birthday card came about when I was recently invited to a 70th birthday party. I stamped some recycled Kraft packing paper to make gift wrap. With the leftover paper, I made this card. Any number or greeting can be used to fit any birthday age.

Number Birthday Card by Judy Hayes for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Number Birthday Card Panel Background

Find a piece of Kraft packing paper and iron it. (Paper from a grocery bag or Kraft cardstock can be used instead.) Start by stamping the numbers randomly over the paper with Distress Oxide Tumbled Glass ink. Next lightly ink number stamp with Distress Oxide Broken China ink and stamp over previously stamped numbers.

Next, gather assorted birthday stamps. Use Distress Oxide inks Chipped Sapphire, Broken China, Tumbled Glass, and Uncharted Mariner to stamp birthday greetings randomly. Stamp dots with Tumbled Glass ink. Mist lightly with water to activate the Distress Oxide inks. Then cut the background to 4.5 x 6.5 inches.

Card Base Assembly

Cut Kraft cardstock 10 x 5 inches and navy cardstock 4.625 x 6.625 inches. Fold Kraft cardstock to form a 5 x 7-inch card.

Apply Distress Oxide Tumbled Glass ink with a finger or applicator tool around the edges of the card front. Next, add random light applications of Broken China ink over that.

Apply adhesive to the back of the stamped background with E-Z Dots® Permanent Refillable Dispenser and fasten it to navy cardstock. Then use the E-Z Dots® Permanent Refillable Dispenser to apply adhesive to it and attach it to the card front.

Stamp Number

Cut a scrap of Kraft cardstock large enough for the number. Ink number stamp with Tumbled Glass ink and stamp onto Kraft cardstock. Lightly apply Distress Oxide Broken China ink to stamp and stamp over the first image. Mist lightly with water. Allow it to dry for a couple of minutes or use a heat gun to dry it.

Fussy Cut Number and Mat

Fussy cut around number leaving a narrow border. To cut inside of zero, use a craft knife to make a slit or hole and then use small scissors to cut out the center.

Cut a piece of navy cardstock large enough for the numbers. Use E-Z Dots® Permanent Refillable Dispenser to apply adhesive to the back of the numbers and secure them on the navy cardstock. Fussy cut around the number leaving a narrow border of navy.

Greeting

Use alphabet letter stamps to form words and stamp the greeting with Distress Oxide Chipped Sapphire ink on white cardstock, cover with clear embossing powder, remove excess and heat emboss. Trim to narrow strip. (Or use a computer and printer to print verse).

Apply adhesive with E-Z Dots® Permanent Refillable Dispenser to the back of the greeting strip and fasten on scrap on navy cardstock. Trim around the strip with scissors leaving a narrow border.

Final Assembly

Put pieces of Crafty Foam Tape 108f t on the back of the number. Cut narrow pieces to put on the back of the greeting.

Remove liners from the foam tape on the number and place it on the card front. Then peel off liners from the greeting and fasten across the number. Designer Tip: Crafty Foam Tape 108f t adds dimension yet is thin enough to layer and not add bulk to a card.

A Sparkling Hello

Posted on September 12, 2024 by Jennifer Ingle

Hi, Jingle here today with a super fun CAS card that sparkles and shines! We all need a little more glitter in our lives, don’t we? Well, let’s get to this sweet Sparkling Hello!

A Sparkling Hello Card by Jennifer Ingle for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Clean and Simple (CAS) design does not have to be boring! For this card, we explore how to create a multi-colored shaker with loads of glitter on a super clean design.

Sparkling Hello Card Panel

To begin, die-cut the Hello from a simple white panel of cardstock. This die is from MFT stamps and has all of your letters together, making it easy to keep it aligned. It also has plenty of room for our adhesives, allowing us to create individual compartments for each letter’s shaker filler.

Create a Shaker Feature

Next, you want to adhere a sheet of clear film for the shaker cover. I like to use the E-Z Runner® Permanent Fine Adhesive Dispenser (aka Vellum Runner) for this, as it has a strong hold for the plastic sheet and you don’t risk any visibility because it is clear.

To create the individual compartments for the shaker filler, I reached for the 3D Foam Strips. These are narrow and long, making it so simple to create these perfect spots for the glitter! I added two pieces of Crafty Foam Tape White 54ft to the top portion of the panel to make it simple to add to my card base later.

Glitter All The Things

And now we get to the fun bit! GLITTER! Choose the glitter colors you would like to use and then, carefully pour a good amount into each compartment. I use a small, soft paintbrush to push any that may have tried to get on the strips back into the spaces.

Once you have the glitter in place, gently remove the backing of each adhesive strip and adhere another white panel to the back of the design, sealing in the glitter. You can then adhere the shaker to a card base using the E-Z Runner® Grand Permanent Dots Refillable Dispenser.

Finally, add a finishing touch with some coordinating enamel dots from Doodlebug Designs.

And there you have it, folks! A super sparkly clean and simple design that is bound to bring a smile to your recipient’s face!

Thanks so much for stopping by today and Happy creating!

Photo Corner Border Card

Posted on September 9, 2024 by Tracy McLennon

Hello crafty friends! Tracy here and today I have a fun yet simple little tutorial to share on how to create this photo corner border. This layered border adds dimension without too much thickness to your project. Here are all of the crafty details.

Photo Corner Border Card by Tracy McLennon for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Photo Corner Border Layers and Design

Firstly, cut your layers to create this photo corner border slimline card. The card base is a piece of 7 x 8.5-inch white cardstock folded in half. The next layer is a piece of patterned paper cut to 3.25 x 8.25 inches. Then a layer of kraft cardstock was cut to 2.75 x 7.75 inches.

Cut additional layers of kraft cardstock that are 2.25 x 7.75 inches and 1.75 x 7.75 inches. Add Creative Photo Corners Kraft along the bottom edge of both larger pieces of kraft cardstock. Leaving the top smallest layer of kraft cardstock blank for now.

Add a nice little narrow strip of the blue patterned paper to that top layer of the photo corner border card using the E-Z Runner® Micro Refillable Dispenser. Adhere all the card layers so far together also using the E-Z Runner® Micro Refillable Dispenser. Add the foam sticker sentiment above the border strip.

Add a few more simple embellishments to the card. Stickers directly to the background and the “together” sentiment using Thin 3D Foam Squares Black Mix for a subtle dimension. The thin foam squares have a height of 1/32″ (half of 1/16″ which is the height of our regular foam squares).

I hope you enjoyed the Photo Corner Border ideas. Give it a try on your next card creation. Thanks so much for stopping by!

Warm Winter Wishes Penguin Card

Posted on September 7, 2024 by Teri Anderson

Hi, everyone! It’s never too early to get a jump start on your holiday cardmaking! Teri here to get your creative juices flowing for making some super cards for the season like this Warm Winter Wishes Penguin Card … a few months ahead!

Warm Winter Wishes Penguin Card by Teri Anderson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Warm Winter Wishes Card Base and Sentiments

Start by cutting some strips of patterned paper to go on a card. You’ll also want to stamp a large sentiment and a small one on a smaller strip of paper. Use your sentiments as a guide for lining up and adhering the strips of patterned paper onto a card. Be sure to adhere to that small sentiment strip on your card as well.

Add a Border and Snowballs

Take several 3D Foam Circles and cut them in half. Line them up along the sides of your card to make scalloped borders. Cover them with flock. (Not a flock fan? Try using our Metallic Transfer Foil Sheets in Nature to give them a sparkly finish!)

Take 3D Foam Strips and cut them up to fit on the back of your large sentiment. Be generous and use a lot of foam. This will keep your sentiment from getting crushed in the mail when you send out your card. (You can also use Crafty Foam Tape 54ft. for this. Just cut it up to fit the sentiment.) Adhere your sentiment to your card.

Stamp, color, and die-cut a couple of small Christmas or Winter images. Make sure they fit nicely over your large stamped sentiment. Adhere them to your card.

Complete the card by adding some snowballs to it. So, I used pompoms to mimic the look of snowballs. Just simply adhered them with Adhesive Dots Micro.

I hope you are inspired by today’s tutorial to get to work on your holiday cards!

Thanks so much for stopping by today!

Happy Creating!

Elegant Flower Card

Posted on September 5, 2024 by Yvonne van de Grijp

Hi everyone, Yvonne here with a super easy-to-create Elegant Flower Card. The best part? It is also suitable for beginner cardmakers!

Elegant Flower Card by Yvonne van de Grijp for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

I used the Wear Your Adhesive on the Outside concept for this card. It is a simple way to add a sparkle to your card without much effort. Let’s get started!

Card Base

Start by trimming a piece of patterned paper to a rectangular size. This will be the top card panel for your Elegant Flower Card.

Then adhere to a kraft card panel using the E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips Refillable Dispenser. Next, adhere to a white card base again with the E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips Refillable Dispenser.

Embellishing the card

First stack two off-white mulberry flowers and fasten them with a a pearl brad. Now what is an Elegant Flower Card without a chique bow. I used off white satin ribbon to make the large bow. Adhere the flower and the bow onto the Card using Adhesive Dots Medium.

Wear Your Adhesive on the Outside

Using the Dual Tip Glue Pen and glitter, I applied the Wear Your Adhesive on the Outside concept for a simple way to enhance the flower. Draw lines on the flower petals with the Dual Tip Glue Pen, and around the pearl brad. Then sprinkle white holographic glitter over the wet glue. Let dry thoroughly and tap off any excess.

Voilá your Elegant Flower Card is ready. I hope you enjoyed this simple tutorial and wish you happy crafting.

Best Friends Scrapbook Layout

Posted on September 4, 2024 by Ali Skifton

Hi, Ali here today! I am happy to share another layout with this Best Friends Scrapbook Layout! Featuring the E-Z Runner® Grand Refillable Dispenser, it secures those paper scraps for a fun background. Using Doodlebug Design’s adorable pet collection, Ollie and Dave, let me share my process with you.

Best Friends Scrapbook Layout by Ali Skifton for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Best Friends Layout Background

First, determine which patterned papers to use for the background design. Cut into strips and on a 12 x 12-inch white cardstock, I layered them using my trusty E-Z Runner® Grand Refillable Dispenser, which glides smoothly across my papers.

Design Details

So grateful for the Crafty Foam Tape in White 54ft.! It makes it so much easier to add dimension to bigger pieces like a photo. I used the roll to cut multiple strips to help pop the photo off the papers.

I used 3D Foam Squares White Mix to make my title stand out and placed it at the bottom of the photo.

Using the same foam squares pack, I added die-cut shapes like the tree, sign, bone, and ball around the title. The small 3D Foam Squares from the 3D Foam Squares White Mix pack worked perfectly for popping the hearts over the dog house.

Thank you for stopping to check out my Best Friends Scrapbook Layout. I will see you next time with more fun projects to share!

Beautiful Moments Traveler’s Notebook

Posted on September 1, 2024 by Lara Scott

Hello y’all, La ra here today and I am sharing my love of Traveler’s Notebooks. I wish I was more interested in them while in Japan a couple of years ago but C’est la vie! Using great patterned paper and a few embellishments, I created this Beautiful Moments Traveler’s Notebook! What a wonderful addition to my favorite leather notebook. Also a fun gift idea for anyone who loves notebooks or documenting things on paper.

Beautiful Moments Traveler's Notebook by Lara Scott for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L Pinterest

Beautiful Moment Traveler’s Notebook Start

To create the cover, I cut a piece of patterned paper to 8.25 x 9.75″ and scored it in half. Next, scored the ends just slightly smaller than 0.5″ so they would wrap around the cover in case, it needed to be removed in the future. I tend to get bored with covers frequently.

Designer’s Note: use the E-Z Runner® Grand Repositionable Dots Refill to secure it until you want to change it out. This adhesive will peel off and will not hurt the notebook surface…just rub off the adhesive dots.

Gather Up Supplies to Finish Up

I used a fun stamp set, along with the Versafine black ink and clear embossing powder to bring out the fine details of the images. For dimension, I grabbed the Crafty Foam Tape Black 108ft. and the 3D Foam Strips. To secure part of the sentiment, I will use the Adhesive Dots Small.

First, I stamped the camera design on a piece of white cardstock with Versafine black ink. Next, sprinkle clear embossing powder over the camera and tap off the excess. Then melt the clear embossing powder with a heating tool. Designer’s Note: Use the heating tool under the paper to prevent the powder from blowing away. Once it starts to melt you can directly heat until it’s completely melted. Fussy cut the camera image once cooled.

For impact, I stacked two layers of the Crafty Foam Tape Black 108ft. behind the camera and adhered it to the upper half of the patterned paper cover. Next, pop up the small stamped sentiment strip with the 3D Foam Strips and place it underneath the camera. Lastly, adhere the vellum word with the Adhesive Dots Small. I added the adhesive dots behind the colored letters to hide but if you have the E-Z Runner Permanent Fine, it is designed to work with vellum.

Here is a close of the Beautiful Moments Traveler’s Notebook cover elements.

Time to Celebrate Birthday Card

Posted on August 29, 2024 by Judy Hayes

Hi, Judy here today! Here’s a Time to Celebrate Birthday Card using PhotoPlay Paper’s Birthday Bash Collection featuring the 3D Foam Stars. So fun to add color to the 3D Foam Stars with embossing glaze!

Time to Celebrate Birthday Card by Judy Hayes for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Time to Celebrate Birthday Card Layers

Let’s cut the paper pieces for the card. For the card base, fold a piece of 9.5 x 6.5-inch white cardstock in half to make a 4.75 x 6.5-inch top fold card.

Cut the following patterned papers: Navy Looking Good paper – 2.5 x 3 inches, and 1.75 x 6.5 inches; 1 x 6.5 inches; Plaid You’re a Classic paper – 3.25 x 6.5 inches; and Stripe Get Your Party On paper – 1 x 6.5 inches. Lastly, cut the yellow cardstock to 2.625 x 3.125 inches and 0.5 x 6.5 inches.

Assemble the Card

On the white cardstock card base, apply the E-Z Dots® Permanent Refillable Dispenser to the back of the navy 1.75 x 6.5-inch piece and secure it across the bottom.

Use E-Z Dots® Permanent Refillable Dispenser to apply adhesive to the bottom back edge of the plaid piece and attach it to the yellow cardstock strip leaving a narrow edge to show. Continue with the E-Z Dots® Permanent Refillable Dispenser to use it to adhere the stripe piece with a 0.25-inch reveal. Then add the piece to the card front overlapping the navy piece.

Attach the 1 x 6.5-inch navy piece with the E-Z Dots® Permanent Refillable Dispenser about 0.375 inches above the bottom edge of the plaid paper.

Mat the Sticker Sentiment

Peel sticker from Photo Play Birthday Bash Element Stickers sheet and attach to navy paper. Use E-Z Dots® Permanent Refillable Dispenser to apply adhesive to back and fasten on yellow cardstock. Place Thin 3D Foam Squares White Mix on the back of the matted sentiment, peel liners, and place on the card front.

Wear Your Adhesive on the Outside with 3D Foam Stars

Let’s make embellishments! Remove the small star from 3D Foam Stars and place on non stick craft sheet. Remove the liner, cover with Distress Glaze (press down the powder to secure it into the adhesive), and tap off the excess.

Melt the powder with a heating tool. Although heat resistant, if too much heat is used the small star will curl and at times, shrink. While the star is still warm, cover it with another coat of glaze, remove excess and heat. Repeat this step with six small stars and one medium star. Allow to cool before moving each star.

For the medium glazed star, use a needle tool or tweezer to pick it up and place it over the star on the matted sticker sentiment. Continue to place small stars on the navy border with three on each side. Done!
