Get Well Soon Card

Posted on October 12, 2014 by Latisha Yoast

Hello there, Latisha with you today. October is Breast Cancer Awareness month here in the United States. It is estimated that 1 out of 8 women, will be affected by this horrible disease. In honoring awareness. I created a simple Get Well Soon card with a pink heart.

I scored kraft cardstock, and layered it with another kraft panel. I added glitter to the Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L 3D Foam Hearts. This is a great technique when working with glitter, fast and simple, we call it Wear Your Adhesive on the Outside.

Posted on October 11, 2014 by Lisa Adametz

Hi there my crafty friends! It’s Lisa here with you today and I’m thrilled to bring you a super fun and PINK card in celebration of Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

You may think it’s weird to celebrate something as life-altering as breast cancer, but here is why they do WHAT they do to promote awareness during the month of October (sharing the info which was posted already by Beth Pingry):

“The National Breast Cancer Awareness Foundation’s mission is to help women now by providing help and inspiring hope to those affected by breast cancer through early detection, education and support services.

Breast cancer is one of the leading health crises for women in the United States. 1 in 8 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer in their lifetime. There is currently no known cure for breast cancer, and its early diagnosis is critical to survival.” source: NBCF Website

We will have our limited edition Pink Creative Photo Corners are available only during the month of October. When you purchase these, a portion of the sale is donated to the National Breast Cancer Foundation. How awesome is THAT?!!

Just ask for them at your favorite retailer.

Love and Support the Girls

Posted on October 10, 2014 by Michele Kovack

Good morning! Michele here! As you know, October is breast cancer awareness month, so I created a card honoring a friend of mine who is currently fighting this disease. I wanted to send her a card of encouragement. She has a tough spirit and I know she will get through this with the support of her family and friends. But even tough girls need reminders.

My card uses a stamp set from Crafty Secrets. It was colored with Copic Markers. The Pink Creative Photo Corners from Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L® were perfect for this card! I used a Spellbinders die for the image and background matte. The embossing folder was also by Spellbinders.

I added a bit of ribbon, pearls, and added layers of dimension. ( I love using the Dodz™ to adhere my little embellishments.)

Pink Creative Photo Corners are the best!

I started layering my pieces and incorporated those pretty Pink Creative Photo Corners.

I stamped and colored all of my pieces and laid them out so I could decide how to arrange them.

Since I am a fan of lumpy cards, I pulled out my favorite 3D Foam Squares to do the job!

I placed them behind my main image so my gal would be popped off the page a bit.

I embossed the back panel and needed to adhere it to the card, so the E-Z Squares® were perfect!

Here is a final peek at the finished product!

Thank you for stopping by! I am off to pop this card in the mail today!

Inspirations for Christmas Tags

Posted on October 8, 2014 by Stephanie Schütze

Hi there,

it’s Stephanie here today with some inspirations for christmas tags using the 3D Foam Wings, 3D Foam Hearts and Creative Photo Corners as decoration embellishments. The pink photo corners is a limited edition for the breast cancer awareness.

All tags have a background with acrylic paint on watercolor paper. For the first tag I drew a little angel and colored her with Neocolor II.

For the little heart in her hand I used the 3D Foam Hearts and red glitter foil.

The wings are from the 3D Foam Wings set on which I added beige embossing powder. This is such a great way to add a 3D effect, I use it often on my projects.

I added the wings and gave the angel some finishing touches with a black pen.

On the second tag I used the pink (limited edition) Creative Photo Corners and arranged them in a heart from.

I used also a 3D Foam Hearts and red glitter foil on top of it.

My third inspiration is a flying heart, a combination of the 3D Foam Wings and 3D Foam Hearts.

I hope I could give you some little inspirations for your christmas cards or tags.

Autumn Leaves Card

Posted on September 30, 2014 by Kelly Klapstein

Hello everyone! It’s Kelly Klapstein here today to share with you a card I created using some 3D Foam Leaves. I was inspired by the gorgeous changing foliage surrounding me here in Canada. Autumn is in full swing!

To adhere my card base layers, I used my E-Z Runner™ Permanent Strips, along with some Gold Creative Photo Corners.

Then I placed three 3D Foam Leaves and embroidery thread onto the card. One thing I really love about the 3D Foam Leaves package is that there is a variety of shapes and sizes of leaves….and you get 28 total, which is lots for all kinds of projects!

I added foil to create a copper effect.

I also added the foil to a 3D Foam Frame where my stamped sentiment would go.

To finish off my hanging leaves, I added little bows that are adhered with Small Dodz™.

I just love the metallic copper on these 3D Foam Shapes. Perfect for the Fall season!

Happy Crafting!

Hello- AJ here to share a fun little treat wrap for your Halloween goodies!

I love being able to make cute little treats for the holidays- whether its for the kids, or their friends, etc. This is a quick little treat wrap using two label dies.

Die cut the label of choice twice, and score at about an 1″. Trim the point off.
Stamp what ever background you are going to create, and place a few Adhesive Dots Small to hold your twine. Adhere focal images on top off twine using 3D Foam Squares.

To adhere the die cuts together, place Crafty Power Tape on both ends of the die cuts. I finished it off with orange ribbon and more black twine to hold it all together, and a cute little tag.

Enjoy!

Supplies:

Spellbinders dies; Paper Smooches stamps; card stock, inks, Sakura of North America Glaze pens & Koi watercolor paints; Studio Calico White paint.

Grunge Birthday Card Tutorial

Posted on September 28, 2014 by Asia King

Hello everyone and I hope you’re having a lovely Sunday! Asia here and today I am sharing a tutorial for this grunge birthday card I made for my hubby :). Masculine cards are always tricky, especially if you like adding flowers to your projects (which I so do!). I hope this project will show that you don’t have to give up floral accents in masculine projects – as long as you keep your overall design quite ‘manly’. So let’s get started!

Scrapbook Adhesives by 3l - Asia King

1. Prepare your 5″x7″ card blank, patterned papers, stamps, inks and your favourite adhesives. I will be using E-Z Squares® Refillable.

2. Trim your background paper slightly smaller than the card blank. Next cut out some alpha elements in a form of irregular blocks. Ink them up and distress the edges.

3. Adhere the background panel and the alpha blocks using E-Z Squares® Refillable. Add some more interest to the background with washi tapes.

4. Cut another smaller DP panel and add some stamping. Then ink and distress the edges.

5. Fussy cut a clock face and adhere to the panel.

6. Stamp the quote and the birthday sentiment onto cream card, ink the edges and mat onto chocolate cardstock using E-Z Squares® Refillable. Embellish the sentiment panels with kraft and black Creative Photo Corners – Mix Pack.
