Birthday Shaker Card

Hi everyone and Happy Saturday! It’s Lisa with you today and I have a Birthday Shaker card that I’m sharing with you today. This card is super fun and easy to make using our Keepsake Envelopes.

LisaAdametz-BirthdayShaker-072015-1

To put this card together first create your card base. I used a standard A2 card base of 4¼” x 5½” scored on the horizontal edge.

Then using the new E-Z Runner® Grand Permanent Strips I adhered my first layer of patterned paper. Die-cut two more pieces of patterned paper and adhere those down using the E-Z Runner® Grand Permanent Strips, as well.

Stamp the sentiment and heat with embossing powder.

To create the flowers, I used scrap pieces of wool felt and die-cut the felt using flower dies. I rolled them up using tweezers and secured the bottoms using either a Dodz™ Medium or a Dodz™ 3D (depending on the size of the flower).

LisaAdametz-BirthdayShaker-072015-3

To keep the flower EXTRA secure I squeezed in a little of the glue from the Quick and Easy Dual Tip Glue Pen in between the petals of the flowers (photos 4 & 5).

To adhere flowers down I also used the Dual Tip Glue Pen liquid glue and allowed them to simply air dry.

Next, for the shaker part! I used one of the smaller envelopes from the Keepsake Envelopes – Mix.  I cut the ends of a straw to make sure that it would be easy to put the glass beads and sequins into the envelope. I also used the new Extreme Double-Sided Tape ¼” under the flap so that it would NOT be able to be opened. (I don’t want those beads flying everywhere!)

LisaAdametz-BirthdayShaker-072015-4

*Tip – Since the Keepsake Envelopes have a clear adhesive backing they’re perfect to apply on ANY surface and the flap is resealable!

I finished the card off by wrapping a little ribbon around the front and tying it in a bow. To keep it secure I added a dab of glue under the bow.

Here’s a little close-up:

Life is Good…

Howdy! Michele here with a card to share with you today! I have been on a water coloring kick lately and this is one of the finished cards.  The flower was cut using water color paper and given a water color wash in hues of pinks and purples.  I cut some leaves and adhered both to an inked panel using my Crafty Foam Tape.  I love that the flower pops off the card a bit.life is good

I adhered the panel to the card using my E-Z Squares®.  The sequins were added with the small DODZ™.  (Much easier than hassling with glue!)  It is a rather “simple” card for me, but sometimes, less is more.  😉

Thank you so much for popping on by today!

Frame it – Home Decoration with Stitching and Paper Flowers

Hi there,

today I want to show you a frame with some stitching, a paper flower and great adhesives by Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L®.

Frame_Stephanie1_1

I love to create my own home decorations and this one is one of a series with paper flower I want to hang on my wall.

And here is my tutorial how I made it.

Frame_Stephanie_2

1 – Use leftovers of paper scraps and make a collage. Choose scraps of a color family and use the E-Z Dots Permanent Refillable Dispenser.

2 – Cut out a flower with your Diecutting machine to use it as a shape for stitching. I used the Sizzix Bigz Native Florals.

3 – Adhere your shape with the E-Z Dots® Repositionable Refillable Dispenser.

TIP: It’s always a good idea to use non permanent adhesive if you unsure of a composition or if you want to remove something.

4 – Make little holes with a needle (every 4-5 mm) around your shape.

5 – Use the holes to stitch your flower.

6 – Choose your inner flowers and use the 3D Foam Squares – white mix to make it dimensional. I used the other flowers from the Sizzix Bigz Native Florals. And I added some pearls.

7 – Adhere some leaves with the E-Z Dots Permanent Refillable Dispenser.

8 – You can add a little butterfly with 3D Foam Squares – white mix as decoration for the flower and to give your composition a color highlight.

9 – You can now frame it. Use also for that the E-Z Dots® Repositionable Refillable Dispenser, then you can replace an other ensemble easily.

I hope you enjoyed the little home decoration tutorial. I would love to see yours.

Have a nice day!

Wedding Invitation – From Simple to Stunning!

Hello blog readers! It’s Angela here today….sharing a wedding invitation I created for my sister in law’s upcoming nuptials!

Wedding Invitation - From Simple to Stunning! by Angela Ploegman

The request was for simple, flat invitations with a western feel and a combination of fonts….the design process started with a few different iterations….one of my early favorites is used only card stock and Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L® Crafty Power Tape 20′ Roll and E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips Refillable.

Wedding Invitation - From Simple to Stunning! by Angela Ploegman

The bride requested a little more vintage detail and so I turned to lace ribbon and used some Extreme Double-Sided Tape 1/8″ to hold it down…

Wedding Invitation - From Simple to Stunning! by Angela Ploegman

She LOVED the end result and so do I….even the UPS clerk admired them and asked if I’d do her wedding invitations!

Thanks for stopping by today!

Precious Layout

Hi everyone Laurel here with a… wait for it… a layout!  They are few and far between these days 🙂  I love scrapping photos of my grand daughter but she spends so much time here, I don’t have the time for scrapping!

2015 07 03_0713For this layout I first gathered my supplies – pretty much always a runner and 3D Foam squares 😉

IMG_7066TIP:  I love using the E-Z Runner as a little goes a long way.  I always do a bit of stitching on my projects so I don’t need a lot of adhesive.  The stitching is only for decoration, the adhesive works wonders!

2015 07 03_0715Another way I like to add interest to my project is with layers and bits.

2015 07 03_0714After fussy cutting some flowers from a piece of the pattern paper, I mounted them with the 3D Foam Squares

Make Your 4th Sparkle with 3D Foam Stars

I am excited to share my FUN and simple card that I created with our 3D Foam Stars shapes. What a great way to celebrate America’s birthday 🙂

3DFoamStarBurst 6x6 Card by Margie Higuchi

Let’s start with the card panel. I used three different patterned papers to create my 6 x 6″ card. Loved the look and they were scraps left from my Wish You Were Here Travel Book project. I cut/embossed it using my 6 x 6 Matting Basics B Die #8 (the smallest size die is #1) with my Grand Calibur® Machine.

MargieHiguchi 3DFoamStarBurst6x6Cd Step 1
MargieHiguchi 3DFoamStarBurst6x6Cd Step 2

To give the edges a finished look, I inked them with a teal colored ink.

MargieHiguchi 3DFoamStarBurst6x6Cd Step 3

I cut/embossed 6 x 6 Matting Basics B Die #8 with teal cardstock. Adhere this layer with E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips on the card base.

MargieHiguchi 3DFoamStarBurst6x6Cd Step 4

Now for the fun part! Center the largest star from our 3D Foam Stars onto the card panel. Then place the second largest star by shifting it slightly to the right so that the top peak of the largest star is in between the peaks of the second star. This creates a star burst look. Repeat this shift for each star. TIP: use all five nesting star sizes for a FULL EFFECT – creates a spectacular focal piece!.

MargieHiguchi 3DFoamStarBurst6x6Cd Step 5

To finish, I sprinkled glitter on top of the entire center piece and brushed off the excess. Added a rhinestone in the center.

MargieHiguchi 3DFoamStarBurst6x6Cd Step 6

I adhered the embellished card panel with Thin 3D Foam Squares – Mix Black on top of the teal cardstock. Here’s another look at the finished card…

I then layered a smaller tag and attached this with 3D Foam Squares – White, Regular.CE With Love Tag 4

3D Foam Shapes Wedding Ensemble

This time of season we are into the wedding events. I just got back from watching my sweet friend’s daughter getting married last weekend! Congrats Ally & Jon!! With that in mind, I created a wedding ensemble using 3D Foam Shapes that I hope will help to inspire in an upcoming event.

3D Foam Shape Wedding Ensemble by Margie Higuchi for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

I am sharing some of the highlights with you in each of the pieces I created in this ensemble…

Wedding Shaped Card

I cut and embossed the pieces used for the card from various die templates. The smallest oval I stamped the sentiment onto patterned paper and then placed the die over to cut/emboss.

Scored 1″ from the top of the largest frame die cut (this will be the back of the card base).

MargieHiguchi 3DFoamShapeWeddingEnsemble Card Step 3

I applied E-Z Dots® Permanent in the scored area only. This will act as a hinge to create the shaped card. Placed the matching die cut over it to create one shape.

MargieHiguchi 3DFoamShapeWeddingEnsemble Card Step 2

I placed one Adhesive Dots Small on each corner and sprinkled glitter on top. Gently press down the glitter and shake off excess. You just created sparkly embellishments! Assemble card by stacking die cuts with 3D Foam Squares and tie a bow with organza ribbon.

MargieHiguchi 3DFoamShapeWeddingEnsemble Card Step 4

Wedding Gift Bag

Cover the front with patterned paper, using E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips.

Cut a piece of patterned paper to fit the largest 3D Foam Frames and place the frame on top of the paper. Take the liner off and sprinkle with glitter. Shake off excess and place a stamped circle die cut on the left side of frame with a 3D Foam Square Black Regular to balance.

Cut a piece of patterned paper to fit the top of bag (think border or band), punch a hole 1″ from the end on each side, thread organza ribbon through and tie a bow. Next, ink edges and adhere on top of bag with 3D Foam Square Black Regular. Add the embellished frame sentiment to finish.

Wedding Boxed Place Card

Assemble the box from die template with E-Z Dots® Permanent.

MargieHiguchi 3DFoamShapeWeddingEnsemble PlaceCard Step 1

Poke a hole in the center of the box top with a memo pin and stack two 3D Foam Squares Black Regular inside. Set aside.

MargieHiguchi 3DFoamShapeWeddingEnsemble PlaceCard Step 2

Sprinkle glitter on two bows from the 3D Foam Party Shapes and one small heart from the 3D Foam Hearts sets.

MargieHiguchi 3DFoamShapeWeddingEnsemble PlaceCard Step 3

Place the glittered heart on the name card.

MargieHiguchi 3DFoamShapeWeddingEnsemble PlaceCard Step 4

Match up the two glittered bow with the memo pin in between to create an accent.

MargieHiguchi 3DFoamShapeWeddingEnsemble PlaceCard Step 5

Cut/emboss a small circle doily and adhere on top of the box top with E-Z Dots® Permanent. Poke a hole with piercing tool and add the embellished memo pin. Add mints in the box and it’s ready!
