CAS Sparkling Birthday Banner Card

Posted on November 26, 2023 by Margie Higuchi

Hi, Margie here today! This super fun clean and simple (CAS) style Sparkling Birthday Banner Card is packed full of different cardmaking ideas that you can use in your cards. From foiling (no tools needed by the way), layering, and dimension, it will inspire you to try them too! Let me show you how.

CAS Sparkling Birthday Banner Card by Margie Higuchi for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Birthday Banner Layers + Card Base

Card Front Panel: 5 x 3-inch white cardstock (missing in the photo below).
Panel Mat: 5.25 x 3.25-inch green cardstock.
Panel Layer: 5.5 x 3.5-inch patterned paper.
Card Base: 5.75 x 7.5-inch green cardstock and fold in half for a 5.5 x 3.75-inch top-fold card.

Prep the Card Front Panel

Stamp a sentiment on the lower right corner of the panel. Place five fishtail 3D Foam Pennants (or six triangle pennants) across the top of the panel (approx.. 0.75-inch from the top).

Adhere the white card front, green cardstock panel mat, and the patterned paper panel layers together with the E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips Refillable Dispenser.

Wear Your Adhesive on the Outside with 3D Foam Pennants + Foil

Remove the top liner of one of the 3D Foam Pennants. Apply a piece of the Metallic Transfer Foil Sheets Celebrate Colors on top of the exposed adhesive color side UP – the foil color is facing you. Gently rub the foil with your fingertips to transfer the color to the 3D Foam Pennants. Repeat the foiling step with the rest of the pennants.

I used all the color combinations in the Metallic Transfer Foil Sheets Celebrate Colors but you can use whatever color you like.

The Finishing Touches

Pull an E-Z Runner® Stars Shape with your tweezers or fingers and center on each of the foiled 3D Foam Pennant. Foil with a contrasting color for interest. I used beautiful gold from the Metallic Transfer Foil Sheets Celebrate Colors.

Assembling the Birthday Banner Card

Place strips of Crafty Foam Tape Black 108ft. on the back of the layered card front panel and secure it on the green card base. This gives the layers a subtle lift (1/32 inch which is half of 1/16 inch).

Design Option: depending on the design, add a piece of twine across the pennant tops and secure it with the Adhesive Lines. Stamp a word or personalize it with a name using a small letter stamp (or letter dies + Adhesive Sheets) on top of the foil pennants.

Hope you give this a try. Thanks for stopping in!

Masking Strips for Inking Technique

Posted on November 23, 2023 by Teri Anderson

Hi, everyone! Do you like to make your own backgrounds? Teri here with an easy masking technique to try next time you make an inked background for a card.

Masking Strips for Inking Technique by Teri Anderson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Cut Strips of Paper, Add Adhesive and Mask

Start by cutting several strips of lightweight printer paper. Make all of them the same height. The length does not matter. Apply E-Z Dots® Repositionable adhesive on the back of them.

Adhere them to a panel of cardstock to create a frame of sorts, leaving the middle of the panel open. Blend ink onto the panel. Remove the strips. Designer’s Tip: Create several inked panels at one time by cutting several strips and using them to mask off several panels before inking!)

Use a gum eraser to remove any adhesive left on your paper panels. Be sure not to touch the inked up parts, in case your ink is not dry!

Turn Those Inked Panels Into Cards

Turn the panels into cards by stamping images with black ink onto the panels. Take part of an Adhesive Sheet 4 x 6in. and randomly apply adhesive onto your inked panels.

Cover the adhesive with glitter! (Creative tip! Not feeling like using glitter? Use Metallic Transfer Foil instead!)

Stamp sentiments on strips of cardstock. Adhere them to your panels with Crafty Foam Tape. Mount your panels onto card bases as well.

Complete your cards by adding some 3D Foam Stars on them. Cover them with flock.

I hope might try making your own masking strips to create inked backgrounds next time you make some cards!

Happy Creating!

Embellishment Tree Layout

Posted on November 21, 2023 by Tracy McLennon

Hello crafty friends! Tracy here, and today I have a pretty little festive layout to share that is a great way to use up your leftover bits and pieces of your favourite collections. Here are all of the details on how I created this Embellishment Tree Layout.

Embellishment Tree Layout by Tracy McLennon for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Let’s Get Festive!

Do you ever have a collection that you absolutely love? But have just bits and pieces left. I had 1 full sheet of patterned paper left, that is my 12×12 background. Then cut a piece of white cardstock to 11×11. Adhere the layers together using the E-Z Runner® Grand Refillable Dispenser.

I added the gift foam stickers to the bottom of the layout to create the base of the tree. Use a scrap piece of cardstock to create a triangular template with the remaining space that will then be the tree.

The next step to creating the Embellishment Tree Layout is to adhere the foam sticker embellishments to create the bottom layer of the tree, and the star foam sticker for the top of the tree.

Mat the mini photos in white cardstock, adhering them with the E-Z Runner® Grand Refillable Dispenser. I ended up only using 2 of the mini photos that I matted.

Lay the matted photos where you would like them to be within the Embellishment Tree. Add embellishments around the matted photos creating the rest of the tree image using the E-Z Runner® Grand Refillable Dispenser and 3D Foam Squares White Mix to create lots of dimension. Then add the matted mini photos to the layout using 3D Foam Squares White Mix.

Finally, I added lots of gems in and around the Embellishment Tree for a little extra sparkle.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Amazing Kind of Day Fall Tag

Posted on November 19, 2023 by Connie Mercer

Hi, Connie here with an Amazing Kind of Day fall tag that would look super cute on a loaf of homemade bread. I started with Metallic Transfer Foil Sheets, Adhesive Sheets 4×6, and Distress Oxide ink. This will give you a pretty cool background to start building the tag on.

Amazing Kind of Day Fall Tag by Connie Mercer for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Building the Tag Background

1. Gather inks along with a tag and make a cool mixture for the tag background.
2. Gather the copper foil from the Metallic Transfer Foil Sheets in Nature Color and Adhesive Sheets 4×6.
3. Crinkle the Adhesive Sheet and the copper foil sheet.
4. Dab the Adhesive Sheet in random spots on the tag. Take the copper foil, lay it over the sticky adhesive, and pull it up. Repeat the process until you get the look you want.

1. Stamp focal images, color, and trim out. Add background stamps, to the tag, to enhance and add interest to the tag. Be creative with the stamps and ink, that’s the fun part.
2. Add color to the tag using acrylic paint. All images are colored with Distress Oxide inks watered down. It gives a distressed watercolor look.

Assembling the Tag

1. Adhere the Pumpkin focal to the tag front using the 3D Foam Square White Mix.
2. To make a fun border at the bottom of the tag, adhere the Creative Photo Corners/Black with the Extreme Double-Sided Tape 1/2″.
3. To adhere the words, the 3D Foam Strips worked perfectly!
4. The letters were adhered with the fabulous Dual Tip Glue Pen. To complete the tag add twine or fabric for the tie.

Christmas Shaker Card

Posted on November 17, 2023 by Yvonne van de Grijp

Hi everyone! With Christmas a little over a month away I made a Christmas Shaker Card. This card is all about fuzzy cutting, layering, and of course a shaker doom. I would love to share how I made my card. Wanna join me?

Christmas Shaker Card by Yvonne van de Grijp for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Shaker Panel

Die-cut an oval from white cardstock. Then trim a white cardstock into a rectangle-sized top card panel. Use the cut oval as a guide to cut out a larger oval from a piece of white cardstock with scissors. This will become the shaker’s background.

Cut a piece of acetate to fit the oval shaker window and adhere it to the back of the card panel using Crafty Power Tape Dispenser 81ft.

Place strips of Crafty Foam Tape White around the back of the card panel and around the oval window. This will be the shaker window panel.

Designer’s Tip: I used scissors to make tiny incisions on the Crafty Foam Tape White around the oval shaper window to make it easy to “bend” around the window (as pictured).

Shaker Filling

To add a fun element to the Christmas Shaker card, I mixed a couple of wonderful shaker mixes from Buttons Galore More into the shaker feature.

Remove the liner from Crafty Foam Tape White and cover the window with the hand-cut larger white oval. Make sure no shaker material can escape. Adhere the shaker card panel onto a patterned paper mat, and place it onto a white card base using the E-Z Runner® Grand Refillable Dispenser.

Fuzzy Cut Elements

To add scenery to the Christmas Shaker card front, I fuzzy cut images from patterned paper and layered them with a combination of Thin 3D Foam Squares White Mix and 3D Foam Squares White Small Size. This helps to create a lovely dimensional interest. For a final touch, stamp a sentiment on white cardstock, cut it to a banner, and adhere it with 3D Foam Squares White Small Size. Voilá, your card is ready!

I hope you enjoyed this tutorial and wish you happy crafting!

Fun Fold Believe Card

Posted on November 15, 2023 by Jamie Martin

Hi, Jamie here today with a Fun Fold Believe Card, made with a combination of craft dies and decorative paper. Send a card with a unique twist this holiday season!

Fun Fold Believe Holiday Card by Jamie Martin for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Create the Fun Fold

Cut a sheet of 8 1/2″ x 11″ periwinkle cardstock diagonally. Then scored to create the fold. Next, cut a 4″ x 5 1/4″ piece of decorative paper diagonally (this will make two cards). Adhere one piece to the bottom fold using the E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips Refillable Dispenser.

Decorate the Top Panel

Die-cut snowflakes from white cardstock and secure them to the top fold of the card using the Dual Tip Glue Pen. Trim off the snowflakes that are hanging over the edge to give random placement.

Making the Frame

Use a scalloped rectangle to die-cut from a piece of white cardstock. Die-cut a stitched rectangle that’s slightly smaller than the scalloped rectangle in periwinkle cardstock. Stack them together and attach with the E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips Refillable Dispenser

Finishing Up

Center the frame on the card front and apply the Dual Tip Glue Pen to the left top fold of the card. Believe was die-cut from the same cardstock colors, layered together using the Dual Tip Glue Pen. Randomly place the hearts from the E-Z Runner® Hearts Refillable Dispenser around the sentiment. Sprinkle crystal microfine glitter over the hearts and secure the glitter by pressing it into the hearts. Tap off the excess.

I hope you try this fun fold technique in your next card creation! Thanks for stopping by!

JOY Wreath Mini Slimline Card

Posted on November 13, 2023 by Margie Higuchi

Are you familiar with the Creative Photo Corners? I love them because they’re classic in style with their embossed edges BUT I wanted to have fun with them by making a JOY Wreath mini slimline card. What do you think? Let me show you how!

JOY Wreath Mini Slimline Card by Margie Higuchi for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Create the JOY Wreath

Grab a sheet of Creative Photo Corners in White and ink with a combination of Distress Oxide Ink in Shabby Shutters + Peeled Paint with an ink blending tool. When you get your desired look, cut off the bottom liner of the inked corners.

On a piece of 3.5 x 3-inch wax paper, place it on a 1.75-inch paper ring to use as a wreath guide. Start with two Creative Photo Corners in White by tucking one corner loosely into the other to create a circle chain around the paper ring as a guide. When the circle is complete, adjust and press the wreath down onto the ring to secure.

Embellish the Wreath

Adhere the vellum wreath die cut on top of the photo corner wreath with the E-Z Runner® Permanent Fine. The vellum photographed is different…this is to show placement. Carefully apply the adhesive to the vellum as it is delicate.

Add Holly Leaf and Berry Shapes from the 3D Foam Christmas Shapes on the wreath. Remove top liner from each holly leaf and apply green foil from the Metallic Transfer Foil Sheets in Celebrate Colors (color side up) by rubbing gently. Repeat the same process with the berries but in red foil as well as the foam circle shapes around the wreath.

Assemble the Card

Fold a 6 x 6-inch square white cardstock in half to create a 6 x 3-inch top fold mini slimline card base. Cut a piece of 5 7/8 x 2 7/8-inch Aspen green cardstock layer and a piece of 5 5/8 x 2 5/8-inch patterned paper. Adhere all both layers to the card base with the E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips Refillable Dispenser.

Place the sixth-largest 3D Foam Circle Frame on the back of the embellished wreath and center it on the card front. Die-cut the letter J and Y with 3D Foam Creative Sheet and place them to spell out JOY. Remove the top liners of both and apply the gold foil from the Metallic Transfer Foil Sheets in Celebrate Colors using the foiling steps.

I hope my JOY Wreath Mini Slimline Card tutorial inspires you to look at our Creative Photo Corners in a different way! Thanks for stopping in and have a Crafty Day!

Festive Shaker Card

Posted on November 11, 2023 by Tracy McLennon

Hello, holiday-loving friends! Tracy here, and today I have a fun and festive little shaker card to share. Here are all of the details on how I created it.

Festive Shaker Card by Tracy McLennon for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Let’s Get Crafty!

First I cut a white cardstock card base. Then cut the patterned paper and yellow cardstock card front layers. I adhered the layers together using the E-Z Runner® Grand Refillable Dispenser and Creative Photo Corners White for the top layer of this festive shaker card.

Add the sentiment to the bottom of the card front using Thin 3D Foam Squares Black Mix. This just adds the perfect amount of dimension for cardmaking.

Die cut the pieces for the shaker piece from white cardstock, green glitter paper and the acetate piece. Adhere the acetate piece to the back of the decorative white die cut piece using the Dual Tip Glue Pen. Next, add the glitter ring, again using the Dual Tip Glue Pen.

To create the festive shaker card shaker section. Cut small sections of 3D Foam Strips, and adhere around the back side of the shaker front. Add all of the cute shaker bits, and then add the white cardstock shaker back. Adhere the shaker piece to the card front using the E-Z Runner® Grand Refillable Dispenser.

I stamped the Elf image onto white cardstock using black ink. Then added color to the image using Zig Clean Color Markers. Fussy cut out the image and add to the card front using the Dual Tip Glue Pen.

Fall Feeling Layered Card

Posted on November 9, 2023 by Margie Higuchi

Hi, Margie here today with a sweet pastel-themed Fall Feeling Layered Card! I saw this paper pack from Emily Moore Designs and had some PinkFresh ephemera from a charity crop so I decided to put them together to see what I came up with. What do you think?

Fall Feeling Layered Card by Margie Higuchi for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Fall Feeling Card Base

Fold in half a piece of 8.5 x 11-inch white cardstock to create a side-fold A2 size card base. Cut a piece of 4.25 x 5.5-inch patterned paper and adhere with the E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips Refillable Dispenser to cover the front.

Building Card Layers

Let’s get the layers together to create the card panel! First, die-cut the Gift Card Holder with white cardstock and cut a piece of 2.25 x 3.5-inch patterned paper. Apply E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips Refillable Dispenser on the back of the patterned paper and slide in between the notches of the gift card holder. Then adhere the sentiment strip from the ephemera pack.

Wear Your Adhesive on the Outside with Foils

Grab one of the smaller leaves from the 3D Foam Leaves and place it on the lower right corner notch. Cut a piece of lavender foil from the Metallic Transfer Foil Sheets Pastel Colors and wrinkle the piece with your hands to achieve a distressed look as pictured in the middle. Remove the top liner of the leaf and place the foil on top (color side facing you). Peel off to reveal the distressed design.

Next, add the solid bronze color foil from the Metallic Transfer Foil Sheets Nature Colors and repeat the foiling step. When you peel off the foil, you will see the color covering all the areas where the adhesive was exposed (the white areas). My favorite foiling technique that gives it dimension and interest.

Lift Up the Elements

Cut about three strips of the Crafty Foam Tape Black 108ft. and add them to the back of the card panel. Then center the panel on the card front. Next, add two short strips to the back of a floral accent shape and place it above the sentiment on the card panel. I love this foam tape with its subtle lift of 1/32-inch (half of 1/16-inch).

Finishing Touches

On the upper left corner of the card panel, put one heart from the E-Z Runner® Hearts Refillable Dispenser and foil with the lavender color from the Metallic Transfer Foil Sheets Pastel Colors. Lastly, add the clear and light green bubbles on the card panel with Adhesive Dots Mini.

I hope you try unconventional colors for your seasonal cards! Thanks for stopping by 🙂

Wine Cork Snowman Tutorial

Posted on November 7, 2023 by Teri Anderson

Hi, everyone! Do you love making holiday crafts? Teri here to show you a fun way to turn a recycled wine cork into a cute snowman ornament for your Christmas tree!

Wine Cork Snowman Tutorial by Teri Anderson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Create the Snowman

Paint a wine cork with white paint. Let it dry and then start by cutting down an Adhesive Sheet 4x6in. to fit around your wine cork. Roll the adhesive onto the cork. Burnish the adhesive onto it. Don’t worry if you cover the cork completely with adhesive.

Set some glitter on a scrap piece of paper. Roll the cork in the glitter, allowing all the adhesive to be covered up.

Adhere the wiggle eyes onto your cork with Adhesive Dots. Use a size of Adhesive Dots appropriate for your eyes. For me, I used the Adhesive Dots Micro for the small eyes and the Adhesive Dots Medium Ultra Thin for the bigger eyes. Cut a piece of scrap fabric and tie it around your cork, using Adhesive Dots Micro to hold it in place.

Use a second fabric scrap to make a hat! Place a couple of Adhesive Lines along the top edge of your cork. Roll the fabric around it. Tie it at the top with string or twine. Add a button.

Cut a triangle to mimic a carrot nose from cardstock. Adhere it with an Adhesive Dot Micro to your snowman. Turn your snowman into an ornament by fashioning a hanger from wire or string!

Change Up to Home Decor

You can easily change the look of your snowman. Rather than giving him a hat, Use some wire and buttons to make ear muffs.

You can also go without a hat or earmuffs! Try adding a button to bump up your snowman’s cuteness.

Wine cork snowmen make great holiday decorations too! Rather than giving them hangers, pair a few of them together with a bottle brush Christmas tree! Set them on a tile or small slice of wood. You can adhere them in place with Adhesive Dots to keep them from moving around if desired!

I hope you are inspired by this tutorial to create a snowman or two!

Happy creating!
