Fall Scrapbooking Layout

Posted on November 8, 2015 by Stephanie Schütze

Hi there,

it’s Stephanie here today and I want to show you a Autumn Scrapbooking Layout I made with the fabulous E-Z Dots® Permanent – Refillable.

The E-Z Dots Permanent is my fav adhesives to adhere paper layers in a flat way. I used a leaf on top made of thick cardboard to create a 3D view. And I also used the 3D Foam Squares – White Mix for my little sketch of a hazelnut you can see above the leaf to accentuate the wilderness in a forest.

Thanks for visiting us today!

Have a nice day!

Stephanie 🙂

Do Not Open ‘Til Christmas

Posted on November 6, 2015 by Laurel Seabrook

Hi everyone, Laurel here with a fun Christmas layout. Seems like only yesterday my grand daughter was this little. This year will be a little more interesting… she will be almost a year and a half 🙂

I really wanted to photos to be the focal point and if you know me at all… I love text print so it made the perfect background for my layout. I adhered the photos and the strips of paper along the side with the E-Z Runner Permanent Strips, so quick and easy to use and hold up very well.

I cut the title with my Silhouette and used the DODZ Medium to adhere it. I always stitch part of my layouts, titles and embellishments for added detail so the DODZ are perfect for holding it in place. The second photo from the top is mounted using the 3D Foam Squares as I wanted it to have a little more dimension.

I love these photos and am so happy to finally have them scrapped.

Harvest Embossed Card with 3D Designer Foam Shapes

Posted on November 4, 2015 by Margie Higuchi

Happy November~!! Just for the occasion, I created a “Harvest” card using our 3D Designer Foam Shapes, 3D Foam Leaves with Foil.

Harvest Embossed Card Using 3D Designer Foam Shapes by Margie Higuchi

I started off by cutting these die cuts (went through the machine twice) – the pennant was cut with a sheet of copy paper in between the die cut and denim to prevent shifting. Use scissors to cut away the stubborn uncut areas.

Now to the 3D Designer Foam Shapes! I used gold and brown Pigment Powders to color each of the leaves in the 3D Foam Leaves set. You only need a little bit of the powder to cover.

Tip: Use the powder stuck on the back of the lid. The maple leaf is the focal point so I covered it with red flock and then highlighted it with brown pigment powder. 🙂

The 6 x 6″ card base was embossed for more texture = LOVE!

Tip: Lghtly mist the card base with water to soften the fibers for a crisper embossed design.

I scored the top of the pennant (instead of ironing the edge – lol!) and added the Extreme Double-Sided Tape – ¼” in the scored area. Adhere on the back of the card. I added a small piece in the back of the pennant to keep in place on the card front.

For the wreath die cut, I placed adhesive on the back using Adhesive Sheets 6 x 12″. Then centered it on top of the pennant and add the embellished 3D Foam Leaves as pictured in the finished card.

Using a white canvas ribbon, I wrote “Harvest” and trimmed it to fit under the maple leaf which I adhere with Extreme Double-Sided Tape – ¼”.

Here’s another look at the card…

Spooky Halloween Card using Premium Double-Sided Tape

Posted on October 31, 2015 by AJ Otto

Hello! AJ here with a Not So Spooky card, my last Halloween card for the year. sigh. 😉

Spooky Halloween Card using Premium Double-Sided Tape by AJ Otto for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Isn’t this fun little witches boots image so cute? I sat down one day and stamped out a bunch of cute Halloween images to add to cards and bags, and treat sacks, and I am down to this last one finally! Lets add it to a card!

A Not So Spooky Tutorial

To make the main panel, I used my Premium Double-Sided Tape in 1/4″ size, and placed three strips across the panel as shown.

TIP: it’s best to snip the overhang ends off, and not tuck them behind the panel.

Remove all the liners, and generously apply glitter onto the exposed adhesive strips. Tap off the excess glitter.

Adhere the glittered panel to your card with Black Crafty Foam Tape. The black tape ‘disappears’ on dark backgrounds like this.

Add your tag, I hold the tag over where I want it to go on the card, and place the 3D Foam Squares there in the non glittered areas, then stick it down.

To finish, add a few fun sequins to brighten it up! 🙂 Paired with what’s left of my stash of candy, it’s ready for delivery! Happy Halloween!

🙂 AJ

Happy Halloween Card

Posted on October 29, 2015 by AJ Otto

It’s almost here, just a few days away! This is my favorite holiday to create for, I’m not sure why…might be the cute images, or fun colors.

Happy Halloween Card by AJ Otto For my project, I started with the background image stamped and then heat embossed. I wanted the focus to be on the sentiment/tag so I lightly washed over it with a shade of lighter purple watercolor.

AJOtto-WitchHat-2

The background panel is popped up using Crafty Foam Tape in Black on the card base, as is tag, using 3D Foam Squares. I adhered the sequins and black string with our new Dual Tip Glue Pen. Place a small drop where a few pieces of strong intersect, and it holds in place, and dries clear.
Is anyone else enjoy creating for Halloween as much as me, or am I alone with my obsession of all things Halloween? 😉

enjoy!

Sleeping Woodland Fairy Mixed Media Wall Art

Posted on October 28, 2015 by Asia King

Hello everyone! Asia King here. I’m back today with a mixed media wall art. This is one of those (many) projects that evolved into something completely different to what it was meant to be at the outset :). But I am really happy with the end result and I hope you will like my Sleeping Woodland Fairy, too.

Woodland Fairy_Asia King1

At first, I was hoping to create a hanging with a mask decorated in a fancy Venetian style. I knew I wanted to focus on autumnal colours so I started off by painting the backing board with acrylic paints and stenciling some lovely texture with a mix of translucent embossing paste and Gold, Pink and Brown Pigment Powders. To ‘fancify’ my mask I stenciled a butterfly onto tissue paper and decoupaged it onto the mask using the Dual Tip Glue Pen. As I thought my mask looked more tribal than Venetian I decided to take a completely different take on the project. At least you can see what my Fairy looked like before the make-over :).

Woodland Fairy_Asia King4

My frame was heavily treated with layers of Texture Crackle and paints, as well as White Linen spray and a DIY Gold Pigment Powder mist. My backing board got mist-treated as well and I added some background stamping.

You might have noticed that originally my plaster mask had hollow eye sockets. To add the (closed) eyes I used no other than my trusty DODZ Adhesive Dots 3D! Cool, huh? 🙂

Woodland Fairy_Asia King2

After painting over the previous stenciling, the texture on the Fairy’s skin looked a bit like tree bark wrinkles, which I thought was quite fitting for my forest lady.

The head scarf was first inked with Color Wash sprays and when it dried, I soak it in a Fabric Stiffener. As I was arranging it around the face I started building up layers of faux moss, embellishments, fruits and flowers secured in place with lots of DODZ 3D, and the Dual Tip Glue Pen.

Woodland Fairy_Asia King3

I also soaked a fabric flower in the Fabric Stiffener and added some highlights with paints. When it was all dry I brushed it with glue from the Dual Tip Pen and sprinkled some micro beads over.

Supplies:

DODZ Adhesive Dots 3D; Adhesive Dots Large, Dual Tip Glue Pen

Media:

Color Wash ink sprays (Ranger) – Red Pepper, Butterscotch, Lettuce; Dylusions White Linen Ink Spray; Vermillion Archival Ink (Ranger)

DecoArt: Silver Sage, Oyster Pearl, Country Red, Muted Gold, Coffee Bean, Enchanted, Quinacridone Gold paints; DuraClear Ultra Matte Varnish, Texture Crackle, Fabric Stiffener

Dreamweaver Translucent Embossing Paste; wooden frame, resin-plaster mask

Stampendous – Cling Vintage Letter; The Crafters Workshop Mini Chickenwire Reversed stencil

I hope you enjoyed this little walk in the autumnal forest – I would LOVE to know what you think :). Please feel free to also visit my blog for additional close up photos.

Have a fabulous week!

Autumn Card

Posted on October 27, 2015 by Lisa Adametz

Happy Tuesday, my crafty friends. It’s Lisa here and I’d like to share with you a card I made in an Autumn theme.

I used pigment powders to totally make the organza ribbons ROCK!! And the gourd and pumpkin die-cuts have such beautiful shiny highlights that were painted on with the gold and brown pigment powders. A little water, a little pigment powder, and a brush…and you’re ready to go. So easy!

To get the ribbon to look so beautiful is very simple. Cut it to length (plus a bit extra), and mist the ribbon heavily with water. Tap out the desired colors of pigment powders onto a craft sheet. A little goes a long way! Then smoosh your damp ribbon VERY thoroughly into the pigment and into your hands so that it is fully coated with pigment. *Tip – your hands will get discolored, so it is important to use something like a craft sheet or something you don’t mind turning colors. Wash your hands right away.

Then, using a heat tool, dry the ribbon. It will start to shrivel and shrink as it MELTS! That is the key. You can get it super shrivelly or not, it’s entirely up to you and your preference. Tap off as much excess pigment as possible.

This entire card is so elegant and would be really pretty made into small tags for Thanksgiving. The pumpkin and gourd were water colored and die cut with Adhesive Sheets as backing for easy placement and maximum adhesion. (I love using the Adhesive Sheets with my dies. Perfect placement with those teeny pieces.)

All the card panels are adhered into place using my trusty E-Z Dots® Permanent Refillable Adhesive.

Thank you so much for joining me on the blog today for this Autumn Card. I hope you learned a few new tricks. 🙂 Have a wonderful week!
