Playing with Simple Shapes-An Owl Room Banner featuring Photo Corners

Posted on October 7, 2013 by Angela Ploegman

Hello everyone! It’s Angela today, playing with circles, triangles and hearts to create this fun owl room banner for my daughter’s room.

The Banner

The banner is created from a single 12 x 12 piece of patterned paper, folded in half from corner to corner and then trimmed down to 6 inches in width. Before securing the front and back together with Crafty Power Tape, the inside of the back piece was lined with Creative Photo Corners Black. After assembly, the remaining exposed adhesive on the back side of the Photo Corners was dusted with baby powder to remove the tackiness.

The Owl

The owl embellishment is created from a variety of different sized circles. The feathers on his body are made by layering the Creative Photo Corners White over the largest circle. His beak is another Black Photo Corner (with a bit of trimming) and his feet are the top of a 3D Foam Heart dusted with colored sprinkles. His ears are the negative space from the 3D Foam Pennants with a patterned paper topper. The center of his eyes are Adhesive Dots Small covered with black glitter.

Some 3D Foam Squares and an E-Z Runner® hold everything together.

I love how this project came together from a collection of simple shapes!

Creative Time: 1 Hour

Hope Card for October

Posted on October 1, 2013 by Beth Pingry

October marks the month we use the color pink to raise awareness for breast cancer.

Today’s card is a sweet note that you could send to support a friend.

I love the chalkboard look, and decided black would make the image pop. I stamped with chalk in, heat embossed and then triple matted the image. I added 2 sizes of 3D Foam Hearts, and heat embossed them as well. See how great this looks!

I added the Pink Photo Corners to 3 of the corners, tied twine around the front panel and secured it with the 3D Foam Heart.

Look for these products at your favorite retailer, and help us support the National Breast Cancer Foundation!

A Flowery Fall Layout

Posted on September 30, 2013 by Kelly Klapstein

Hello everyone!

It’s Kelly here to share a different kind of Fall scrapbook layout…one that involves flowers! A couple of weeks ago I took a short trip to Phoenix, Arizona, and was able to experience Fall in the desert. Well, it certainly is different than my Fall in Canada!

Flowery Fall Layout by Kelly Klapstein for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L Blog

These 4 photos are from a tour through the Desert Botanical Gardens, a beautiful conservatory of desert landscape and vegetation. And was I surprised to see all the beautiful flowers blooming!

To adhere my photos and papers, I used the MyStik® Permanent Strips Dispenser.

Have you personalized your MyStik® yet? I was at the Great Canadian Scrapbook Carnival in Calgary on the weekend (hosted by Canadian Scrapbooker Magazine), and there was a contest for altering the dispenser:

Altered MyStik Dispensers - Scrapbok Adhesives by 3L

Wow! Look how creative these designs are! You won’t ever lose your adhesive again when you’re scrapbooking with friends (unless they like your personalized design better than theirs ha ha!)

But back to my layout….I used 3D Foam Squares to pop up the stickers and butterflies:

I added some green glittery 3D Foam Leaves:

Two different shades of green glitter make these leaves sparkle:

I left the leaves in the foam sheet when I added the glitter:

I love the pretty shine they add to the design!

Now that I’m home again, it’s back to the REAL autumn….yellow, red, orange and brown! I hope you’re enjoying a beautiful Fall wherever you live.

Happy Crafting!

Sparkly Dodz Adhesive Dots 3D Acorns and Autumnal Tag

Posted on September 28, 2013 by Asia King

Hello Friends, Asia King here :). I am so excited to be back with my second project!

Today I would like to share a short tutorial for an autumnal tag and also show you a very fun way to use the adhesive to create your own cute embellishments. I’ve made some sparkly acorns to adorn my autumnal flower spray. Autumn (or Fall, if you prefer) is just round the corner in the UK so I wanted to capture the feel of the changing season.

OK, let’s start with the acorns!

1. You will need glass oval beads, jewelry pins and pliers, Stampendous Bronze Crushed Glass Glitter and DODZ™ – 3D.

2. First adhere your DODZ™ 3D to the top of the bead. Keep the clear protective sheet in place for now. Gently tap this dimensional dot around to form a nice acorn ‘hat’.

3. Thread the jewelry pin through the protective sheet and the inside of the bead. Cut the excess wire off and finish the end with a loop using the pliers.

4. Gently pull the the protective sheet over the top of the pin. Cover the adhesive with Bronze glitter. Et voilà, your sparkly acorn is ready!

5. For the tag you will need: an old kraft label (my came with my new jeans), Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L as listed in the steps below, patterned paper (I used Lost and Found by Tim Holtz), Stampendous Cinnamon Micro Glitter, ribbon/lace, flowers and embellishments.

6. Cut a rectangle from your chosen paper, slightly smaller than the tag. Mount it with Gold Photo Corners.

7. Add more adhesive using E-Z Runner®. Adhere the panel to the tag base.

8. Run a few short strips with E-Z Dots® Mini Permanent over the patterned paper.

9. Cover the sticky dots with Cinnamon Glitter.

10 & 11. Add a few more strips with adhesive and adorn with ribbon and lace.

12. Add DODZ™ – Small to the back of your fabric flowers and raffia ribbon and attach to the main leaf embellishment. Thread some raffia through the acorn loops to secure them.

13. Adhere one larger flower to the centre of your arrangement and finally secure your flower spray to the tag with DODZ™ – 3D. Add additional flowers to the top of the tag.

14. Finish the tag with a light spray of Heirloom Gold Perfect Pearls Mist for a vintage autumnal sparkle.

I hope you enjoyed this tutorial and I would love to know how you use your DODZ to create DIY embellishments!

Have a lovely crafty weekend!

Hello Blogosphere! It’s Tiffany & welcome to Day 5 of our Blog Hop with A Jillian Vance Design! I have two altered XL Hershey’s Chocolate Bar treats to share with you today:

I used the Happy {OWL}oween Stamp Set to create hanging-mini tags:

To create the mini-tags I simply folded some cardstock and placed the following die (large owl) so that the top of it was above the fold:

4. Die cut 2 tags using the larger Owl Duo Die by folding cardstock in half and positioning the top of the die above the fold.

5. Adhere stamped and colored large owls onto the die-cut tags. Stamp sentiment inside.

6. Use the Black Pear Pins and some hemp cord to attach the tags to the decorated candy bar.

7. Attach a trimmed birch wood paper straw with Adhesive Dots Small and adhere the small bat owl with a 3D Foam Square – white, small.

Materials used:

Patterned Paper: Lawn Fawn (Into the Woods), Cardstock: Core’dinations Nostalgic Collection No.11, Copic Markers (E0000, E33, E19, E74, G0000, YG63, YG95), Fibers: Lawn Fawn (Hot Cocoa Hemp Cord), DMC Floss (brown), Stamps: A Jillian Vance Design (Happy {OWL}oween}, Dies: A Jillian Vance Design (Owl Duo), Embellishments: A Jillian Vance Design (pear pins black), Google Eyes, Birch Wood Paper Straws, Inks: Ranger Ink Distress Inks (pumice stone, old paper), Imagine Crafts/Tsukineko Memento (tuxedo black)

Happy Halloween with A Jillian Vance Design

Posted on September 25, 2013 by Kimberly Crawford

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.
