2016 Momentos Envelope

Posted on January 2, 2016 by Christine Emberson

Hi everyone, Christine here today with a crafty envelope idea to keep special momentos for the forthcoming year. This could be a handy place to keep souvenir tickets, notes, photos, memories and more.

I gathered the essential items, a tie kraft envelope, E-Z Runner Permanent Strips Refilliable, 3D Foam Squares – White, Regular and Crafty Foam Tape and Crafty Power Tape.

I die cut a label shape frame and placed patterned paper behind affixed with E-Z Runner Permanent Strips Refilliable. I then attached Crafty Foam Tape to the reverse.

This was placed onto the front of the kraft envelope. To add further dimension I used 3D Foam Squares – White, Regular for my flower.

To decorate I added further assorted die cuts and my printed label.

I am going to keep this to hand and then I will remember to pop special things inside!

Celebrate Shaped Card and Adhesive Sheets Tutorial

Posted on December 29, 2015 by Margie Higuchi

Hello~! With the new year approaching, I thought I’d share a sparkly and glittery new year card with you. I created a shaped card mainly put together with Adhesive Sheets – 6 x 12″ and touches of GOLD to welcome 2016 in style!

To be mail-friendly, I made it into one dimension – meaning that I did not add any of my favorite 3D Foam Squares to “pop up” the layers. It is a simple yet elegant card using the beautiful design of the die set and the stunning metallic foil and glitter cardstock, along with clear rhinestones.

To create the shaped card base, I cut and embossed two of the border dies (Flourish Frame Die) with white glitter cardstock. Score ½” on the short side of one die cut.

Apply Extreme Double-Sided Tape ¼” Permanent on the scored area, take liner off and match with the other die cut to form one shape. This is your card base. Set aside.

Nest the border die and the insert die (Decorative Frame Insert Die) together and secured with washi tape on top of metallic gold foil cardstock. Cut/emboss through the manual die cutting machine. Repeat with the other dies (Frame Insert and Large Tag Dies) in the set, using a combination of white cardstock and the gold foil cardstock.

To cover the entire intricate die cut, I used the Adhesive Sheets – 6 x 12″. Gently burnish the back with a bone folder and remove from liner. Place on top of the shaped card base for perfect placement. Apply Adhesive Sheets on the other die cuts with the same sheet.

Using the same Adhesive Sheets – 6 x 12″, place a piece of black glitter cardstock (enough to fit the Celebrate Die). Cut/emboss with the manual die cutting machine. It will not leave any residue on the plates or the machine. LOVE!! Place across the card panel.

For the finishing touch, add clear rhinestones to the card panel and it’s ready to be given…

Wishing you a wonderful & creative 2016! Celebrate the new year with some inspiration by clicking New Year Projects and check it out!

Happy New Year!

Glitter Ice Skates Ornament Tutorial With Adhesive Sheets

Posted on December 28, 2015 by Asia King

Hello everyone! Asia King here :). Did you all have a nice Christmas? Christmas may be over but winter is still here and what a better way to make the most of it than go ice skating! Sadly, there’s no snow around where I live so DIY ornaments with stamped Ice Skates will have to do for now :). I prepared a short ‘pin-torial’ for you for this fun and easy project.

Glitter Ice skates_Asia King 1

You will need:

Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L®: Adhesive Sheets 4×6″

Other supplies: Ice Skates and Snowflake Sky rubber stamps , Crystal Micro Glitter (Stampendous); DecoArt Chalky Finish Paint – Everlasting; Brilliance Pearlescent Poppy ink; water brush; wooden flat coasters; baker’s twine

Glitter Ice skates_Asia King 2

Here are the steps explained:

Paint your wooden coasters both sides with white chalky finish paint and allow to dry. Chalky finish paint will take the adhesive better that ordinary acrylic or poster paint.
Cover the coasters with adhesive using Adhesive Sheets 4×6″. Use a wooden spoon or spatula to burnish over the protective sheet to make sure the adhesive transfers fully.
Sprinkle the glitter over the adhesive, press to cover fully and shake off the excess. No need to wait for the adhesive to dry! 🙂
Stamp the ice skates and snowflake images directly onto the glittered surfaces and heat set with a heat tool.
Pick up some ink from a craft mat with a water brush and add some shading to the ice skates. Swipe the ink pad around the edges to add a finishing touch. Allow the ink to dry.

And that’s it – you’ve got yourself a nice glittery set of ice skate ornaments. I’m going to use mine as tree ornaments so after drilling a small whole I added a twine for hanging. But you can use yours as mulled wine coasters after a chilly day of ice skating! If you do, be sure to cover them with a proper varnish for a waterproof finish.

This is my last post this year so I’d like to wish you all a wonderful New Year 2016, full of accomplished dreams and crafty goodness!

Big hugs

Mixed Media Board

Posted on December 22, 2015 by Stephanie Schütze

Hi there,

it’s Stephanie here today and I want to show you a fairy tale mixed media gesso board I made with awesome products from Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L®.

Some weeks ago I made a little princess mixed media canvas for my little girl. So my older daughter was sad and I made another one for her room.

I used a Gesso board (wood panel) and the pigment powder. My first layer is a collage with paper transfers (from La Blanche). In many layers I used the pigment powders dissolved in water and rubbed with my fingers. I also used Gesso and white acrylic paint between and also some stamps to get texture.

I painted the flowers and decorated them with some stars and a metal charm. I also used a star for her magic wand.

Another decoration is this cute little fabric flower I made with Ribbons. I used lace ribbon and burlap. To adhere the flower I used the Dodz Adhesive Dots.

To adhere my Photo I used the E-Z Dots® Permanent. For the leaves the 3D Foam Squares White Mix.

It was a fun project and I enjoyed every minute on it. I hope you like it too and will try out the awesome Pigment Powders!

Thanks for visiting us today!

Have a nice day!

Stephanie 🙂

Poinsettia Tag with Dodz Tutorial

Posted on December 21, 2015 by Judy Hayes

Hello everyone! It’s Judy here today to share a Poinsettia tag. At this time of year, I use tags to dress up cellophane bags or even brown lunch bags filled with homemade cookies to give to friends and coworkers. The assembly of this tag can easily be broken into little steps to fit into a busy schedule! It would be just as pretty on a package, especially one wrapped in brown paper and tied with string.

Poinsettia Tag tutorial by Judy Hayes for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

To make this tag, I cut 2 tags with Spellbinders Tag, You’re It die – one cut from music paper and one from cream card stock along with circle to fit around hole. I used Adhesive Sheets on back of circle to fasten it to tag. Distress inks were rubbed onto the music tag and lightly onto cream tag. The verse was stamped with black ink. Crinkled seam binding ties the tags together. A piece of Lace Ribbon is fastened with Premium Double-Sided Tape. I placed the tape where it would be covered by the poinsettia.

JudyHayesPoinsettiaTag-2

The poinsettia pieces were cut from red patterned paper and the leaf from green patterned paper. All pieces were inked along edges and sanded to expose white on veins. The poinsettia layers are assembled with DODZ™ Small.
I made the poinsettia center by rolling 6 DODZ™ Medium into balls. Once these were in place on poinsettia, they were dusted with gold Pigment Powder.

To complete the tag, I used DODZ™ Medium to fasten a loose bow of twine under the poinsettia and fastened both to the tag with another DODZ™ Medium.

Thanks for visiting today!
Wishing you a joyous holiday season!

Christmas Heart Card

Posted on December 19, 2015 by Christine Emberson

Hi everyone, Christine here today with a Christmas card idea for that special someone in your life.

My idea is to use a map image of a memorable place, this is placed behind a heart aperture. Firstly, source your map and affix this onto a piece of card using E-Z Runner Permanent Strips Refilliable.

Create your aperture by die cutting a heart, to create a more 3D effect affix 3D Foam Squares – White, Regular and Crafty Foam Tape to the reverse.

Mount this onto the map and then affix to a card front, again using E-Z Runner Permanent Strips Refilliable.

To decorate I added some assorted die cuts.

By featuring a memorable location it makes the card that little bit more special and definitely personal.

Thanks for stopping by today and don’t forget to check out all the great products on the website.

Products used:

Crafty Foam Tape, E-Z Runner Permanent Strips Refilliable, 3D Foam Squares – White, Regular

Spellbinders dies: Reindeer and Sleigh, 5 x 7 Holly Frame, Create A Flake Six

Map, sentiment stamp, kraft, gold, white, green and brown cardstock and gold mirror card.

Gingerbread House Shaped Card Tutorial

Posted on December 17, 2015 by Margie Higuchi

Hello everyone! Today I am very excited to share with you a shaped card that I’ve wanting to do for several weeks…needed the time to just sit down and do it. All these pieces were put together with Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L® products 🙂 What do you think?!

Let’s start with the card base. I die cut two of the Gingerbread House Border die (the silhouette of the house) with Kraft cardstock. One of the die cuts, I nested the Border die and the House die together on top and embossed only. Now it becomes the front of the card and it will embed another die cut.

Scored part of the roof and chimney (about 1/2″ from top) of plain die cut. This will become the back of the card.

Cut and emboss the House die with white cardstock using my manual die cutting machine and taking out the die cut with my Tool ‘n One.

You will end up with these three house die cuts…

Apply Dual Tip Glue in the scored area and then marry the two die cuts until they become one shape.

Put the white house die cut back into the House die template and use as a stencil. Color through the die with Gelatos®. Then cover with Glass Bead Glitter Gel for sparkle and dimension. Repeat the same process with the candy dies.

After drying (don’t forget to clean your die!), I applied Dual Tip Glue on the back and fitted into the embossed design which creates an embedded look – I love this technique! Then add the candy die cuts using a combination of Dual Tip Glue and 3D Foam Squares – Black, Small.

The front door needed something – it has an embossed bow design but I wanted something BOLD so I took the Star from the 3D Foam Christmas Shapes set and colored it with Red Cherry Gelatos®. After it dried, I covered it with Glass Bead Glitter Gel. Let dry.

Here’s another look…

Supplies List:
Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L®: Dual Tip Glue Pen, 3D Foam Squares – Black, Small and 3D Foam Christmas Shapes
Die: Spellbinders® Creative Arts (Gingerbread House); Coloring: Faber-Castell® Design Memory Craft® (15 ct. Gelatos® Bright Set and Glass Bead Glitter Gel); Other: Kraft Cardstock and White Cardstock
