Happy Graduation Card

Posted on May 26, 2013 by Latisha Yoast

Hello there! Latisha here with you today. How is it the end of another school year already? Many of you will be attending High School/College Graduations and Graduation Parties. Getting a gift for a Graduate is always easy, cash or a gift card. So today, I am going to share a graduation card with a little pocket on the inside to place a gift card or cash.

To create this card, you will need card stock cut down to 3 3/4 inches by 10 1/2 inches. Using a scoring tool, score at 1 1/2 inches and 6 inches.

To adhere the inside flap down, I used some Crafty Power Tape, on both sides (leaving a space in the center for a gift card or cash). The pattern paper was adhered to the inside and front of the card using the E-Z Runner Permanent Strips Refillable. To adhere my yellow star buttons down, I cut a 3D Foam Squares Small in half and placed them on the back of the stars.

Here is an inside look at the card. Pattern paper is from Simple Stories, stamps are from Lawn Fawn, cardstock is from American Crafts and the markers used to color in the year are Copics.

the perfect adhesive to help stamp on wood veneers

Posted on May 25, 2013 by Kimberly Crawford

Hi its Kimberly today! On my blog I am currently doing a series of posts about all the fun and creative things you can do with wood veneers. Today was perfect timing for a post here, because the fantastic repositionable adhesive from Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L is perfect for stamping on wood veneers!

Start by laying a strip of E-Z Dots^® repositionable adhesive down on a piece of scrap cardstock or any scrap of paper. By placing your wood veneers onto the repositionable adhesive, they will stay in one spot while you stamp on their surfaces.

Here is a close up look at the stamped wood veneers. I did not use any specially formulated ink for this, just a basic dye ink.

Once I finished stamping the butterflies, it was time to assemble the rest of the card. Cool thing about the new E-Z Runner^{^®} Refillable runners is, you can change the insides out, no matter what the outside is! If you look at the photo above, I was using the E-Z Dots^{® R}epositionable Refillable adhesive runner, but needed a permanent adhesive to hold the card together.

By simply popping the top off, I was able to remove the cartridge and replace it with the permanent cartridge! Very quick. No hassle. Talk about easy and frankly, brilliant!

thanks for stopping by!

Hello Tag

Posted on May 24, 2013 by Ashley Harris

Hey there! Ashley here today to show you a super easy and quick way of adhering transparencies to your projects.

So here is the step by step.

First you want to pull the top strip off the Adhesive Sheet you will be using. Then place your transparency down as you pull the yellow liner down.

Be sure to burnish or rub really hard for an even coverage on your transparency. I usually will place the yellow sheet back on top so I don’t get any of the adhesive that is around my transparency on my hands.

Gently pull off the back layer and your transparency is ready to be placed on your project. This adhesive is super strong so be sure to mark exactly where you want it so you can be sure of the right placement the first time.

Hope that helps you! Thanks for stopping by!

Hi There!

Shell Carman here today with my first post for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L®!
I love to use lots of embellishments on my page which are often bulky & heavy. I want my embellishments to adhere instantly without moving around the page. Dodz 3D
& Dodz Medium are perfect for this!

As you can see I have created a large cluster of flowers & Vintage trinkets. All of these have been stuck down with Dodz 3D & Dodz Medium!

I also like to create dimension by using 3D Foam Squares for the larger pieces & the 3D Foam Squares Small for the finer fussy cut pieces.

I have used the small 3D Foam Squares at the end of the pendant & the regular size throughout the body of the pendant.

To stick down all of my layers I used my E-Z Runner Permanent Strips Refillable Dispenser which made the layering process so quick & easy!

Thanks for joining me today!

Mixed Media Layout

Posted on May 22, 2013 by Stephanie Schütze

Hello, it’s Stephanie Schütze here with a mixed media layout on a canvas panel.

Some days ago we made a trip to the lake and suddenly I saw a little mermaid. 😉 My little girl was resting on a big stone and her pose was looking like a mermaid pose so I took quickly some photos of her to remember this cute moment.

I made a mixed media layout on a canvas panel and used a lot of modelling paste, paint and encaustic wax in the background and some lovely stuff and leftovers behind and next to the photo.

To fix the different papers I used the Crafty Power Tape – 81′ Built-in dispenser. For the photo I used the Crafty Foam Tape – White 13′ and to fix the little camera on the photot I used a 3D Foam Squares 1/2″ White – 126 pc.

A Man Bag!

Posted on May 19, 2013 by Christine Emberson

Hello everyone – Christine here today to share with you a gift bag for the man in your life. I adore all thinks girlie and pretty but occasionally we have to put together something a little more masculine, today’s project is a quick and easy altered lunch bag.

What makes this project so speedy is the new E-Z Runner® Refillable Dispensers. I’ve chosen to use the E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips Refillable – the dispenser fits smoothly into my hand, I’m able to dispense as little or as much as I need and I know when it runs out I can just open it up and pop in a new refill. No winding of tape, it just slots inside.

The papers I have selected are Simple Stories – Awesome, the colours are earthy and masculine, suited to my man bag! Using the same adhesive I can attach some web-like ribbon. I’ve also added some Photo Corners Kraft. I attach this whole panel to the front of the lunch bag.

I selected a Bingo Card from the Awesome collection, distressed and inked the edges. Placing Crafty Foam Tape strips to the reverse adds dimension.

Using more of the patterned paper I cut/embossed Spellbinders™ Classic Heart and Stars Five to create embellishments. Affixing 3D Foam Squares – White to the reverse.

The finished bag.

The photo corners tone so well with the overall finish.

And, in the absence of anything girlie you cannot go wrong with hearts and stars!

Thank you for stopping by today.

Thinking of You Silver Hearts Card

Posted on May 16, 2013 by Beth Pingry

Hi it’s Beth! Today I have a card with the “Wear Your Adhesive on the Outside” technique featuring the 3D Foam Hearts.

Each row of medium sized 3D Foam Hearts has a different embellishment. I used craft foil, Perfect Pearls (a pigment powder) and glitter.

I lined them up on patterned paper, with Silver Photo Corners on 2 of the layers.

The wood embellishment was adhered with 3D Foam Squares, the papers with E-Z Squares® Refillable.

Fast, fun and blingy!

A Sparkly Sweet Sixteen

Posted on May 13, 2013 by Kelly Klapstein

Hi Everyone….Kelly here to show you how to add sparkle and “wear your adhesive on the outside” when designing a scrapbook layout.

On her sixteenth birthday, my daughter decided to invite all her friends out for dinner. They dressed up in their party dresses and had a “Girls Night Out.” I thought I’d design a scrapbook layout to remember this event, but also to give her some advice, which I found in the form of these Kaisercraft rub-ons that I adhered to the centre of the page.

I wanted to add some “sparkle” because every girl likes glitter, right? Especially when you are 16! So I used my Crafty Power Tape™ to create the black sparkly borders along the edges of the stamped lace.

It’s a little hard to see the glittery shine, but trust me…it looks so pretty in real life!

Here is how I made these sparkly borders:

First I used a Kaisercraft lace stamp on a 12″ long piece of paper.

Then I ran my Crafty Power Tape™ along the entire length of the edge.

I pulled off the adhesive backing.

I have a scrap piece of paper under the border while I pour on the glitter, then shake off the excess. I used Craft & Glitz Glitter.

This allows you to return the remaining glitter more easily into your container.

I made two sparkly borders with this technique.

Love this glittery effect!

The rest of my layout came together with the My-Stik™ tape runner and 3D Foam Squares™.

Plus, I used my favourite Black Photo Corners™ to showcase my daughter’s portrait.

The Kaisercraft “Remember Me” collection was perfect to create a dramatic layout with the black and red colour palette, and I also used a Kaisercraft Saturday Sketch for the design.

I hope this idea helps you add a little “sparkle” to your next project!
