Here is my little tutorial for you.

Stephanie_springcard_2

1 – I collected a beautiful paper and I prepared some die cuts with my Big Shot.

2 – First I adhered my base, a small stripe of paper, with the E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips Refillable Dispenser onto a white background.

3 – I adhered a flower motive I cuted out with scissors with the E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips Refillable Dispenser. Some yarn left overs from my last sew session I adhered with some small 3D Foam Squares Mix – white by simple laying them behind the die cut flower. Then I put it onto my card.

4 – To adhere some petals I used also stripes of the E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips Refillable Dispenser

5 – I adhered the decorated card with the E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips Refillable Dispenser.

6 – I finished the card with a sentiment sticker and a half pearl.

My Dad is a Star Father’s Day Card!

Posted on June 19, 2016 by Christine Emberson

Hi everyone, Christine here today with a Father’s Day Card. This is the one I’ve made for my very special Dad.

CEmberson - Dad Card 1

I gathered together my brown card base, patterned paper and affixed to card front using using E-Z Runner® Ultra – this is an ultra strong, permanent, double-sided adhesive in a refillable dispenser. It dispenses a clear line of adhesive and is immediately tacky – perfect!

CEmberson - Dad Card 2

CEmberson - Dad Card 3

My die cuts need dimension and because the majority are dark coloured card I chose to use 3D Foam Squares both Regular and Small in black. You can purchase a mixed pack with both sizes – very handy!

Twine is secured in place around the star die cut with Crafty Power Tape.

How to Embellish a Father’s Day Home Decor Gift with Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Posted on June 17, 2016 by Margie Higuchi

I purchased this metal letter “H” and thought it would be fun to embellish it for my husband in honor of Father’s Day! Using a combination of different Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L® products, I ended up with this piece for his office 🙂

Embellished Fathers Day Metal Letter Home Decor by Margie Higuchi

Starting with an element that needs time to dry, I looped navy twine three times. To keep its shape, I covered it with Art Medium on a Teflon® non-stick craft sheet. Not only can it adhere but it can seal and stiffen materials. Truly one of my “Go To” mediums!

While the twine dries, I rolled some stars on the metal letter “H”. Then I pressed and rubbed Pigment Powder Gold into them. Use a small piece of baby wipe to clean the excess powder.

On the lower left side of the letter, I added two layers of ribbon for texture. Using Extreme Double-Sided Tape 1/2″ Permanent, I adhered White Burlap Ribbon to the metal and then Dark Denim Ribbon with white stars on top.

MargieHiguchi 500 EmbellishedFathersDayHomeDecor Jun1716 Step3

For the star embellishment, I used gold pigment powder and silver pigment powder to color the 3D Foam Stars. Set aside to add later.

Now to adhere my looped twine embellishment. Again, I used Art Medium by dipping the twine into the jar. Place on top of the layered ribbon and press down to secure. The medium will dry clear.

After the twine dries, I placed the embellished 3D Foam Star on top but at the top, I added a 3D Foam Square White, Regular to keep the star leveled, It was also a good place to push my memo pin in.

MargieHiguchi 500 EmbellishedFathersDayHomeDecor Jun1716 Step7

I trimmed a photo of my “boys” and slid in the memo pin. He can change out the picture and use magnets to hold small notes on the metal surface. Now it’s ready to give on Father’s Day 🙂

Glittered Thank You Card using Adhesive Sheets

Posted on June 15, 2016 by AJ Otto

Hiya! AJ here today to show one of my favorite ways to quickly add glitter to your die cuts. It’s wedding season, grad season, dad season; etc. With all those gifts going around, sometimes a thank you card is in need.
AJOtto-TY-002

Sometimes you just need to add glitter to a die cut. These things happen in our hobby. 😉

AJOtto-TY-2

The EASIEST way to make this happen is to use your Adhesives Sheets with your dies! Pull the yellow liner backing away and press your card stock in to place. I often will burnish it with a bone folder to smooth it all out, not necessary, but out of habit it’s what I do. 😉
AJOtto-TY-3

Lay your die, cutting side into the white side of the adhesive sheet and run through your die cutting machine.

AJOtto-TY-4 Gently peel back the white lining and you can start sprinkling glitter all over the exposed area. I usually try and leave a piece to hold onto, pulling it off section by section. Once covered set aside.
AJOtto-TY-5 To adhere my kraft colored layer, I used the E-Z Runner® Grand. To adhere the white die cut, I added small dots from the Dual Tip Glue Pen all around then placed onto the card.

Perfect to say thanks to Dad on Father’s Day!

enjoy! 🙂 AJ

Hello Friend

Posted on June 13, 2016 by Amy Tsuruta

Hey, it’s Amy and I’m here to share a card with a bit of texture:

Amy Tsuruta Hello Friend

I’ve haven’t used modeling paste with a stencil in awhile so I decided to feature that on my card for today. I first started with a quickly watercolored panel. It has been trimmed to an A2 card size.

Amy Tsuruta Hello Friend 1

I mixed up some modeling paste and combined it with Pigment Powder Blue. I added enough of the powder to get the shade of blue that I wanted for my card.

I placed my stencil on top of the watercolored panel and frosted the paste on top of it.

Amy Tsuruta Hello Friend 3

Here’s what it looked like after I was finished:

Amy Tsuruta Hello Friend 4

I set it aside to dry while I finished up the rest of my card. I love using premade embellishments on my projects. What I like to do is use more 3D Foam Squares White, Regular to even out the layers. The arrow is pointing to the area that came with adhesive, I added the additional foam squares.

All the panels were adhered using the E-Z Runner® Grand Dispenser!

I love the contrast in colors and all of the texture in this card. I’ve been smitten with gold glitter cardstock and seem to include it in all of my projects lately.

Thanks so much for stopping by! I hope you have a super week!

The cake plate and topper are also from 3D Foam Creative Sheets, and I rubbed Gold Pigment Powder into them.

Fourth of July Card Tutorial

Posted on June 10, 2016 by Michele Kovack

Howdy! Michele here with a patriotic card to celebrate the Fourth of July, which is right around the corner!

Fourth of July Card Tutorial

I cut the frames and left the dies in place. I sponged ink around the dies and spritzed it with water. I also flicked a bit of gold water color paint. I adhered a strip of Denim Ribbon down the center with Crafty Foam Tape in white.

Fourth of July Card Tutorial by Michele Kovack for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

I used the 3D Foam Creative Sheets to die cut a star. Then I sprinkled it with gold glitter and set it aside. I then used the 3D Foam Heart and sprinkled that with a reddish/gold glitter. Next I tied the twine into a bow and adhered everything, including the letter beads, with Dodz Adhesive Dots Medium and Dodz Adhesive Dots Mini.

For a finishing touch I scattered a few gold sequins around the star. Those were also attached with Dodz Adhesive Dots Mini.

With the 3D Foam Squares it’s so easy to create a 3D effect.

Here is my little tutorial for you.

1 – Use your die cutting machine and the Sizzix Thinlits Die Set – Elephant Duo to cut out two Elephants. The paper of the Baby Elephant is selfmade with Gelatos this gives a special look.

2 – Use the E-Z Dots® Permanent – Refillable to adhere the Mama Elephant on your white beackground.

3 – Then use the 3D Foam Squares Mix – white to create a 3 dimensional look.

4 – Put the little Elephant in front of the Mama Elephant.

Stephanie_Birthdaycard_3

6 – With a black pen you can draw some simple lines for the little heart balloons.

7 – Use the E-Z Dots® Permanent – Refillable to put your background card on a double card.

Honor Tag Tutorial

Posted on June 5, 2016 by Erica Houghton

It’s Erica and today I’m sharing a tag I created.

Honor Tag Tutorial

I started with a denim-colored panel. Then I placed Extreme Double-Sided Tape 1/8″ along the bottom of the pennant and folded the bottom up 1/4″. Next, I folded the pennant in half and marked the center with a pin.

Honor Tag Tutorial

After I marked the center I unfolded the pennant, placed Extreme Double-Sided Tape 1/8″ diagonally in both corners, and folded each corner towards the pin creating a pocket. I then placed Extreme Double-Sided Tape 1/8″ along both sides as well as the top and folded the sides in 1/4″ and the top down 1″.

Honor Tag Tutorial

Finally, I added machine stitching to my pocket to make it look similar to a denim pocket (I used a pencil and ruler to create my pattern and then stitched along the lines).

Honor Tag Tutorial

Once my pocket was ready I began creating my tag. I started by placing adhesive along the edges of a tag using the HomeHobby by 3L Double Sided Tape Runner and covered the tag with pattern paper. I then used a quatrefoil die cut to create a design to add to the background of my tag. Next, I adhered my die cut to my tag using Adhesive Sheets 4×6″.

Honor Tag Tutorial

I actually cut two die cuts and placed one at the top and bottom of the tag and trimmed the excess off. I covered the gap between the two die cut pieces with the denim-colored pocket I created. To give it dimension I adhered the pocket to my tag using a 3D Foam Creative Sheets Mix.
