It’s super easy to cut all the pieces of paper in advance, die-cut the mittens, and add the Liquid Applique’ to the bottom of the mittens. You can even add the 3D Foam Squares, Black, Small to the back of the mittens prior to getting everything together.

It’s also a good idea to pre-prep your twine by dipping it into Gel Medium and twisting into shape and laying it out to dry. This step is NOT necessary, but it is fun.

Once you’re in true mass production mode you’ll need 1) E-Z Dots® Permanent Refillable Dispenser (and a refill) and 2) Adhesive Dots Medium 3) Premium Double-Sided Tape ½” – Permanent.

An embossing ink was used to stamp the sentiment onto the vellum strip and it was heat set with an embossing glitter.

A fun and easy card to make for anyone that might need a little cuddle. 🙂

Happy Holidays Card

Posted on December 10, 2015 by Michele Kovack

Good morning! Michele here with a Happy Holidays card for you!

This card uses the negative space as a backdrop to create interest. The 3 snowflakes were die cut out and I water colored around it in various shades of blue. The panel was adhered to an additional white piece of card stock using the E-Z Squares® Refillable. I added the smaller snowflakes to the centers of the larger snowflakes using Adhesive Dots Small.

I added gems to the centers of the snowflakes using Adhesive Dots Small as well. The sentiment sticker was added.

I used Crafty Foam Tape to attach the panel to glittery silver card stock. As a final touch, I tied silk ribbon and jingle bells vertically. The bow was secured with Adhesive Dots Small, so it didn’t flop all over. 😉

Thanks so much for popping by!

Supplies: Adhesive Dots Small, E-Z Squares® Refillable, Crafty Foam Tape White, card stock, ribbon, gems, jingle bells, water colors, sentiment sticker

3D Foam Shapes Holiday Pillow Box Tutorial

Posted on December 3, 2015 by Margie Higuchi

Greetings and Happy December! Today I’d like to share a gift wrapping idea using Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L® 3D Foam Shapes! Using a couple of techniques, I embellished the shapes to decorate this cute pillow box…

Let me share how I created this box…after die cutting my pillow box shape out of this cute striped patterned paper, I assembled it with E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips tape runner and the box is done!

Now to the fun! I place my Gingerbread Man from the 3D Foam Christmas Shapes on a craft sheet and color it with Iced Chai Gelatos® stick. I speed the drying process by using a heating tool. YES, did you know you can?! Its high density foam allows it to be heat embossed!

I left the liner on his mouth as I wanted to keep that white 🙂 The berries were colored with Iced Currant Gelatos® stick and will be used as buttons. So cute!!

Next I wanted to give the Gingerbread Man a little sparkle so I covered him with Glass Bead Glitter Gel (I took off the liner beforehand). It goes on white but will dry clear and he held up through the whole process – still smiling. Set aside to dry.

For the tree, I wanted to add dimension so felt and 3D Foam Creative Sheets was a perfect combination for what I wanted to accomplish. I trim both enough for the die to fit. After removing the liner, the felt was placed on top and then the tree die. I die cut with my manual die cutting machine – about three or four passes (to get somewhat of a clean cut with felt fibers). Set aside to assemble later.

What’s a winter holiday without a snowflake?! I mixed just a little of the blue pigment powder with the Glass Bead Glitter Gel to create this amazing blue sparkly paste. Using a snowflake from the 3D Foam Snowflakes set, I covered it with the blue paste. Set aside to dry.

Just assemble as shown in the image and add a blue rhinestone in the snowflake center – it’s done! Here’s another look…

Supplies List:
Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L®: E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips, 3D Foam Christmas Shapes, 3D Foam Creative Sheets, 3D Foam Snowflakes
