Start Each Day

Posted on August 29, 2014 by AJ Otto

Hello- Happy Labor Day weekend! AJ here sharing just how quickly a birthday card can come together with the right supplies.

The journal card caught my attention so I decided to make the card around it.

To start, I using E-Z Runner® Squares Refillable to adhere the patterned paper to my card front,

And again on my banner pieces,

and once more to adhere the banners onto my card front.I wanted to tie in a doily since there were doily images on the journal card, but it was a tad to small to really peek out from behind like I wanted it to. So I trimmed it in half, layer it onto my card front, and placed the journal card onto it so it would line up just right. Next, I wanted that focal piece popped up, so Black Crafty Foam Tape it is! (I keep a roll of both black and white on my desk at all times!) Done and ready to go in the mail!

Have a marvelous weekend!

My Resin Heart

Posted on August 28, 2014 by Asia King

Hello everyone! Asia King here and today I would like to share some bling with you!

This project was ‘born’ at a moment’s notice. I was working on another item and I had some jewellery resin left. I was keen not to waste a drop of this precious mixture, but I only had a few minutes of working time left before the resin would start to harden.

So I quickly grabbed a spare brass bezel from my stash, covered a small heart from the 3D Foam Hearts sheet with lovely gold glitter, adhered it to the base of the bezel and filled the bezel with resin.

And now I have a simple but beautiful pendant (or key ring?) ready. It would make a beautiful gift for someone or maybe just for me? 🙂

I can already see so many unique jewellery opportunities brewing with other fabulous 3D Designer Shapes!

Thanks for stopping by and have a fantastic day!

3D Foam Butterflies Card

Posted on August 27, 2014 by Lisa Adametz

Hi crafty friends! It’s Lisa here with a really fun and easy card using some super sweet 3D Foam Butterflies as my pop of color!

LisaAdametz-3DFoamButterflyCard-1

I had started off wanting an all black and white card, but as I was creating it, I knew that color was needed. So I glittered two of the 3D Foam Butterflies and used Wow! Fab Foil for the other. I used the MyStik® Repositionable Dots to assist in aligning my papers just right before permanently adhering them down with the E-Z Dots® Permanent Refillable.

LisaAdametz-3DFoamButterflyCard-2

Under the bow I used the DODZ™ small to keep it from shifting. The DODZ™ are super strong. Even the teeny ones!

I added just a small strip of patterned paper that matched my butterflies to the front of the card and a larger strip to the inside of the card to tie the front and inside together (which can be seen much better in the first photo).

Pretty!

This card came together really easily and I think that it’s just the perfect card to send to say, well…”hi”. 🙂

Enjoy the rest of your week!

With Sympathy

Posted on August 24, 2014 by Michele Kovack

Hi! Michele here! I have a sympathy card to share with you today. I found this beautiful flower cut at the Silhouette store. I love poppies and knew I had to create something with it. It has a lot of dimension and to be sure there were layers with various heights, I used the Crafty Foam Tape in black. I cut it in half lengthwise to make it skinnier. I didn’t want to be able to see it peeking out from the frame.

I adhered the flower petals using the DODZ™ small. I added a silver doily to the top and bottom using the E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips. I tied a bit of coordinating string and added my gem and sentiment with the DODZ™ small.

I like to make sympathy cards when there isn’t an immediate need for them. I have a little basket I keep them in until they are needed.

Thank you for popping by today!

Tissue Paper Card

Posted on August 23, 2014 by Tiffany Johnson

Hello Blogosphere! It’s Tiffany here today with a photo tutorial. I have absolutely fallen in love with all things Hazel & Ruby and found myself with a bunch of leftover tissue paper from another project, so I started thinking! Is there an easier way to adhere this tissue paper…. And, there is!

TiffTissuePaperMain

To begin, you need the following Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L®: Adhesive Sheets 4″ x 6″, E-Z Dots® Permanent- Refillable. I’m also using Hazel & Ruby’s Ephemera Collage Pass the Tissues & Chalk Art Stencil Masks, Colorbox Spray Ink (bubblegum), and Pebbles 6″ x 6″ patterned paper by Jen Hadfield.

TiffTissuePaperSupplies

First, take your cardstock (3 1/4″ x 5″) and apply the adhesive sheet adhesive. I removed the little bit on non-stick sheet on the side so that the entire thing could fit. Then, you burnish the cardstock by rubbing back and forth. This ensures that every bit of the cardstock is covered in adhesive.

TiffTissuePaper1

Then you apply the tissue paper, working one corner to the next. Burnish the tissue paper into the adhesive & cut excess.

TiffTissuePaper2

Now, you can apply your stencil mask & spray with any spray ink.

TiffTissuePaper3

Remove the stencil mask with a thumb tack & allow time to dry.

TiffTissuePaper4

Once dry, adhere it to your card base using the E-Z Dots® Permanent-Refillable.

TiffTissuePaper5

Then, you can add whatever embellishments you have!

Tag – This is my happy

Posted on August 22, 2014 by Stephanie Schütze

Hi there, it’s Stephanie here today.

I want to show you a tag I made using the 3D Foam Butterflies Designer Shapes as decoration embellishments.

The white flowers are simple drawings I cuted out. I adhered them with the E-Z Dots Permanent.

Then I added beautiful 3D Foam Butterflies decorated with red foil. I only added two of them to let the design simple and clear. I love how they pop up.

Some splashes with Gesso, a title and a Ribbon that’s it.

Make Your Own Background Stamp – Stamped Fabric Tag

Posted on August 21, 2014 by Angela Ploegman

Hello blog readers! It’s Angela here today, posting a tutorial on how to create your own background stamps and then use them to stamp the design onto a fabric tag!

Make Your Own Background Stamp - Stamped Fabric Tag by Angela Ploegman

To get started, gather up your favorite patterned die and your Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L® 3D Foam Creative Sheets.

angela ploegman custom fabric stamping 1

Position the 3D Foam Creative Sheet face down on the cutting surface of the die, using tape to keep in place if necessary.

angela ploegman custom fabric stamping 2

Diecut the image from the 3D Foam Creative Sheet. Remove the unprinted backing from the portion of the image you would like to stamp with. (If you are really feeling creative, you can create 2 stamps from a single sheet-one negative image stamp and one positive image stamp-this tutorial only covers the positive image technique).

angela ploegman custom fabric stamping 3

Press the entire 3D Foam Creative Sheet onto a heavy piece of acetate. The uncovered adhesive on the die cut image will stick to the acetate. Remove the negative portion of the die cut image (this part still has the backing and should remove easily).

Using some water soluble ink pads, ink up a craft sheet or a palette board with multiple ink colors. Spritz with some ClearSnap Smooch Spritz to blend the colors. Ink the stamp and place face up on a flat surface.

Press the fabric tag onto the surface of the stamp and smooth firmly with your hand to fully transfer the image to the fabric.

Dry the tag (a heat gun speeds up this process) and stamp your sentiment. Add embellishments of your choice and you are done!

Such a fun and easy technique (and it works equally well on watercolor paper)!

Thanks for stopping by today.

Altered Heart

Posted on August 19, 2014 by Christine Emberson

Hi everyone, it is Christine here today sharing with you an altered heart project.

I selected an MDF heart and some patterned paper – Fancy Pants, Memories Captured. Drew around the heart with a pencil and cut it out.

It was then simple to adhere the paper to the MDF using MyStik® Permanent Strips , as you can see because it dispenses in tiny adhesive strips and is therefore perfect for curves.

I sanded the edges of the heart gently, applied distress ink and stamped a script design to the bottom section.

I then selected a rectangle of patterned paper, distressed and inked the edges. I also raided my material box and found some hessian and frayed the edges, both of these will strongly adhere to my project with Crafty Power Tape.

Because this is a gift for my niece I placed a special photo of her inside a Keepsake Envelope, this will save it getting dusty and adds a nice touch. These come in a variety pack so there’s always a right size for whatever you place inside!I then added some lace, twine, a die cut Spellbinders® Create A Sunflower and a little brad to represent a closure on the Keepsake Envelope. The sunflower is firmly in place with 3D Foam Squares – White, Regular.

A completed gift and made speedy with the perfect adhesives.

Thank you for joining me today and remember to keep stopping by the Crafty Power Blog for lots of inspirational projects.
