The Keepsake Envelopes are perfect for slipping a handful of sequins and beads into.  I also used the 3D Foam Creative Sheets to create a focal point for my sentiment.

I used the die with my 3D Foam Creative Sheet to create my dimensional frame.  I adhered it directly to my Keepsake Envelope.  ( I love that it is sticky on both sides!)

I wanted a bit of subtle sparkle, so I sprinkled a bit of glitter.  No glue, no hassles, just peel the top off and you have this wonderfully sticky die cut!

Happy Birthday Card Using Adhesive Sheets With Stencils

Posted on April 7, 2015 by Angela Ploegman

Hello blog readers! It’s Angela today, making the most of supplies I have on hand. For this project, I got out my stencils and figured out how to use them successfully with the Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L® Adhesive Sheets – 12 x 12″. I used this new technique to create the background for the following card:

Happy Birthday Card Using Adhesive Sheets With Stencils by Angela Ploegman

The trick for using stencils with the Adhesive Sheets – 12 x 12″ is to ‘dust’ the stencil before applying the adhesive through the stencil gaps. This prevents the excess adhesive from sticking to the stencil, allowing it to be easily rubbed off in the occasional spot that it transfers to the stencil. I used my embossing powder duster (usually used to prevent stray embossing powder mishaps) to dust my stencil, but expect that other powders used for the same purpose would work similarly.

Here’s a close up photo of the (stenciled) striped background:

I quite like the tone on tone appearance achieved with the clear embossing powder….it adds just a little bit of texture to the background and keeps things visually interesting. Give it try! Stretch those supplies!

3D Foam Easter Shape Bunny Tag Tutorial

Posted on April 4, 2015 by Margie Higuchi

Since it’s the day before Easter, I thought I would share a QUICK & EASY 3D Foam Easter Shape Tag. So for those last minute folks (COUGHmeCOUGH), this is for you – LOL!

3D Easter Foam Shape Bunny Tag by Margie Higuchi

Did you know you can use many different kinds of mediums to apply ON TOP of your 3D Foam Shapes? Mediums such as glitter, foil, pigment powder, flock and more. Today I wanted to try Pigment Powder in Brown (for chocolate eggs = YUM!) and purple micro beads.

MargieHiguchi 3DEasterFoamTag Step1A

I was impressed with how the micro beads stuck on the bunny shape and love the texture it created.

MargieHiguchi 3DEasterFoamTag Step2

The tag also was textured using the Basket Weave Sculpted Embossing Folder. I cut/embossed Medallion Three die to frame the 3D Easter Foam Bunny Shape.

To finish off, I tied a knot with Organza Ribbon and it’s ready to go!

Springtime Gift Box

Posted on April 2, 2015 by Christine Emberson

Looking for a springtime project to be inspired by? Hi everyone, Christine here today with a spring themed mini gift box to share.  It’s speedily and easily created with Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L® products.

Springtime Gift Box by Christine Emberson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Springtime Gift Box Tutorial

First I created my box using a box die.  Onto each flap, I applied MyStik® Permanent Strips. It’s ideal, as you can dispense as much or as little as you need.  If you prefer to use double-sided tape, then Crafty Power Tape is a superb choice.

CEmberson - Spring Box 1

For my box decoration, I chose a flower die set. Simply die-cut each flower, layered and attached with 3D Foam Squares White, Small on the reverse side, as double-sided adhesive and for dimension.

CEmberson - Spring Box 2

I clustered the flowers onto the box lid along with its leaves and added a pearl to the center of each one.

CEmberson - Spring Box 3

I created a tag and embellished it with a smaller flower and leaf. Tie it with twine and tuck it inside the box to affix it. Perfect for a little message.

These would make ideal table favors for your Easter table or as gifts for your guests – pop some chocolate mini eggs inside! More uses are as bridal shower favors, Mother’s Day tea party favors and so much more.

Easter Bunny Card

Posted on April 1, 2015 by Beth Pingry

Wishing you and yours a very happy Spring and a wonderful Easter! It’s Beth, and I’m sharing an Easter Bunny card I made from our 3D Foam Easter Shapes.

Beth Pingry - Easter Bunny Card

I created a background with stencils and ink, then added Mr. Bunny, once I had him covered in Brown Pigment Powder. The 3D Foam Frames and White Creative Photo Corners frame him nicely.  I stamped the banner and added the word HAPPY and covered it with glitter. The banner is adhered with 3D Foam Squares.

BethPingry-EasterBunnyCard2

This was easy and fun! If you’re not up to creating the background, patterned paper will do too.

Thanks for visiting! You’ll see how I created the background soon on my blog, Cookies For Breakfast!

Spring Mixed Media Canvas with 3D Foam Shapes

Posted on March 30, 2015 by Kelly Klapstein

Happy Spring everyone!  It’s Kelly Klapstein here, and I’m excited to share a different kind of project than I usually make.  Here is a mixed media canvas I designed using lots of pretty 3D Foam Designer Shapes.

kellyklapstein-spring-1

Here are some close ups and details about how I altered all the different 3D Foam Shapes.

kellyklapstein-spring-2

I added blue and yellow glitter to the 3D Foam Butterfly, and I heat embossed the 3D Foam Pennants with pink and white glitter embossing powder.

kellyklapstein-spring-4

The 3D Foam Leaves are covered with green flocking.  After fussy cutting the floral patterned paper, I pressed Adhesive Sheets on top and then adhered clear microbeads.All of the floral paper pieces are layered with Crafty Foam Tape and 3D Foam Squares.

kellyklapstein-spring-5

My ‘Spring’ title was cut with my electric die cut machine.  I put an Adhesive Sheet onto my patterned paper before cutting, and then removed the backing afterwards and applied clear glitter.   This made my title sparkle!

kellyklapstein-spring-6

The little flower with flocking that is dotting the ‘i’ in ‘Spring’ is from the 3D Garden Shapes.

It’s always nice to have some spring home decor on display to celebrate the end of winter!

Elements of a Kooky Easter Owl

Posted on March 28, 2015 by Michele Kovack

Changing it up a little with a fun Easter owl! Yep, a bit kooky I know, but why not? I found this really adorable owl die on clearance at a big box store and knew I wanted to do something cute with it.

Happy Saturday! Michele here. A few oval punches and some eggs cut from my electronic cutting machine, and voila!

Owl Elements in Details

For his ears, I adhered them using E-Z Squares® Refillable Dispenser and for the pink inner ear portion, popped up with Crafty Foam Tape in white.

I also wanted the glittered eggs to have some depth so I also adhered them using E-Z Squares® Refillable Dispenser and Crafty Foam Tape.

The banner, ribbon, and flower were adhered using Adhesive Dots Small.

Sometimes with a bit of creativity, you can stretch those dies a bit further!  🙂

Have a great weekend, friends!
