Happy Halloween with A Jillian Vance Design

Hello!!  Kimberly here in day three of the A Jillian Vance Design Blog Hop.  We have some great prizes! Enter to win between Sept 23-27, 2013, by commenting here, and  on A Jillian Vance Design’s Blog!  Comment each day on each Blog Hop post to increase your chances of winning! One commenter will be randomly drawn from each blog to win a stamp set and a selection of adhesives!

 

How cute are these owl stamps? What is even better is they have a matching set of die templates!

 

I started off by die cutting the smaller body. Then layered the stamped images on top, to create more dimension. 3D Foam Squares White Small are perfect for layering smaller images like this.

Be sure and take a closer peek at my card and see the cute background I created with repeatedly die cutting the small owl body!

Once I had the owls assembled, I grabbed my Dodz Small. Simply apply the Dodz to your surface, in this case, the back of the owl, remove the backing, and you have a custom embellishment to easily adhere to your project.

Blog Hop Day 1 – Not So Scary Halloween Cards

It’s Angela here and I am so excited to be kicking off Day 1 of the blog hop with A Jillian Vance Design! We have some great prizes! Enter to win between Sept 23-27, 2013, by commenting here, and on A Jillian Vance Design’s Blog!

First up is a tutorial for this cute Halloween card:

Not So Scary Halloween Cards by Angela Ploegman

Here’s a photo showing the supplies you’ll need:

Instructions:

1. Create a 4.25 x 5.5 inch side folding card from black card stock.

2. Stamp the sentiment from the Happy {Owl}oween Stamp Set using embossing ink. Cover with white embossing powder, shake off excess and emboss.

3. Peel back the backing from an Adhesive Sheet – 4 x 6″ and place the wood veneer branch face down.

4. Replace backing sheet, flip over and burnish gently. Remove branch from adhesive sheet and apply black glitter. Shake off excess glitter and place the non glittered side of the branch onto a new section of the adhesive sheet.

5. Replace backing, flip over and burnish gently. Remove branch from adhesive sheet and apply to card base above sentiment.

6. Stamp an Owl from the Happy {Owl}oween Stamp Set with black ink and heat emboss with clear embossing powder.

7. Now you could die cut this cutie right now, but I prefer to color the image before die cutting. So I got out my Copic markers and colored the image in.

8. Position the die on the image and secure with some washi tape (or other low tack tape).

9. Cut out image and apply 3D Foam Squares – 1/2″ White to the reverse, leaving some room at the bottom without adhesive.

10. Remove the adhesive backing and perch the Owl on his/her branch to complete the card!

Layered Layout – The Three of Us

Hi it’s Stephanie here today with a layered layout.

It’s a layout about the three girls of us and of a beautiful day we spent with a picnic at the Zurich lake.

I used the E-Z Dots Permanent refillable dispenser. It’s perfect for layering paper.

To adhere the selfmade frame I used the small squares of the 3D Foam Squares White – Mix.

For my Journaling I used a decorative bag and a little tag which is located up behind the photo.

Other Supplies:

Paper/Sticker: Cut & Paste – special from My Mind’s Eye

Decorative bags: Park Bench from Fancy Pants

Thanks for visiting! Have a nice day!

Thank You Tag

Hello, Christine here today with a pretty tag showing off the brilliant NEW Designer Shapes.  I have used the 3D Foam Leaves – it is a mix of all different shapes of foliage.

I chose the maple looking leaves, peeled away the adhesive layer, sprinkled with copper embossing powder, shook off the excess and set with a heat gun.  Superb metallic looking leaves in a jiffy!  I teamed them up with Spellbinders® Bitty Blossoms.

The patterned papers are Pink Paislee – Cottage Farms.  Perfectly and easily adhered with the new E-Z Runner® Permanent Refillable.  I cut/embossed Labels Thirty One for my stamped sentiment.  To the edges of the patterned paper I added Photo Corners Kraft – these are great as you can ink, stamp, distress them and more.

Another picture of the finished tag.  Add some twine or ribbon – perfect to attach to a thank-you gift or bottle of something, perhaps if you are attending a dinner party.

Thank you for joining me today – here is a list of the super sticky products I have used.

Thank You Snow Much Card

I know it’s still September, and it’s not quite cold enough for snow here in Chicago, but as a runner, I am so happy with the recent temperature changes! I’m not ready for snow, but cooler temps are definitely welcome as I train for my first marathon. So lets just settle for 3D Foam Snowflakes, which will be available in October!

This card features 3D Foam Snowflakes embellished with Designer Foil. I layered vellum onto cardstock and adhered with a 4 x 6″ Adhesive Sheet. The other layers were adhered with an E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips Refillable dispenser. I added Silver Photo Corners for a little bit of shine to match the foil. It’s an easy card to create, and the foil is super fun to use on all of our adhesives.

Thanks for stopping by today,

Beth Pingry

Back to School Layout

Hello everyone!

It’s Kelly here to share a Back To School layout I designed using the wonderful new 3D Designer Shapes.

I used 4 different Designer Shapes on this layout, and they are all covered with silver glitter.

The 3D Foam Wings and 3D Foam Hearts:

The 3D Foam Frames :

And those black chevrons or arrows?  They are Black Photo Corners, snipped a little bit!

I just love the 3D Foam Stars, which are packaged nesting inside one another so you have all sizes and solids and outlines too!

If you look closely, you can see a glittery border all along the edge of the white text paper layer.  I created that subtle shimmery border with Crafty Power Tape and clear iridescent glitter.

Here’s a step by step of photos where I will now show you how to create these stars.  There are only a few supplies you need:

1.  Place one of the star ‘outlines’ onto some paper or card stock:

2.  Lift off the backing:

3.  Add glitter

4. Rub or ‘burnish’ the glitter onto the sticky foam with your finger.

5.  Brush off excess glitter.

(I used a glitter tray to catch the mess!)

6.  Cut out star, closely to the edges.

And that’s it!  You now have a custom made star embellishment for your project!

The beauty is that you can use any color of paper and glitter!  So “reach for the STARS”….and have some fun with these new Designer Shapes!

Happy Crafting!

Easy Peasy Cards

October is the month where you’ll have to run to your local scrapbook store and ask for the new Designer Shapes from Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L 🙂

Until then, let me give you some ideas for some easy cards.

I cut some white cardstock, found one of my favorite embossing powders and the 3D Foam Pennants Designer Shapes.

Very easy – right 🙂

And two more “look-a-like” cards:

Have fun creating today.

Creating Faux Enamel Dots with 3D Foam Designer Shapes

Hi! Kimberly here and I have a confession. I love enamel dots. I collect enamel dots. I hoard enamel dots. And I STILL do not have all the colors I “need.” Leave it up to Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L to have a product to help my addiction!

As I was looking at my sheets of the the Designer Shapes, I noticed all these 3D Foam circles, perfectly sized like enamel dots! I knew they could be heat embossed, so off I went to experiment.

I started by placing the foam circles onto a left-over backing piece from 3D Foam Squares. (Keep those backing sheets, I use them ALL the time!) Then I generously poured embossing powder over the top of each foam circle. The excess was tapped off and returned to its container. Heat emboss each foam circle. The surface won’t be entirely smooth, and how textured they will be depends on the type and color of embossing powder you choose. But it worked! I love them!

What do you think? Will you give it a try?

thanks for stopping by!
