Stampendous Blog Hop Day 3

Posted on October 16, 2013 by Beth Pingry

Welcome to Day 3 of our Blog Hop with Stampendous! We are loving the chance to play with their fabulous stamp designs and Encrusted Jewel Kits!

Today I have a Fall home decor project, something seasonal but not necessarily Halloween. This can stay on display through Thanksgiving!

Farmhouse Pumpkin Sign tutorial by Beth Pingry for Stampendous + Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

I searched my stash for a small canvas, which I did not find, so instead I cut down a scrap of foam core board to 4.5 x 6″. I covered it with patterned paper and secured it with Crafty Power Tape.

Next I wanted the look of texture, so I lined a piece of kraft paper with E-Z Dots® Repositionable Refillable adhesive, then added Stampendous Golden Sand embossing powder, and heated it.

I layered black cardstock, then a piece of burlap for texture. Crafty Power Tape works great with burlap! Creative Photo Corners (Black and Ivory) in the corners of the cardstock make a little frame for the main image.

I stamped the Stampendous Cling Damask Pumpkins stamp twice. On one image I colored the center pumpkin and the outlines of the other two. On the second image I colored the outside pumpkins, then fussy cut them. They were layered on top of the first image with 3D Foam Squares White Small. I added the pumpkin image over the burlap with more 3D Foam Squares. I wrapped a ribbon and tied a bow, and then secured it with Adhesive Dots Medium.

Stampendous Blog Hop Day 2!

Posted on October 15, 2013 by AJ Otto

Hello – AJ here to share with you a fall card using Stampendous Stamps and Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L®.

Since fall is finally upon here in the beautiful Pacific Northwest, I thought I would use the Jumbo Leaves set from Stampendous. I stamped the Kraft background before adhering it to the card base. I then stamped another leaf to fussy cut and mount onto my card.

After adhering my stamped Kraft panel down using the E-Z Runner®, I adhered my woodgrain panel down using Crafty Foam Tape in Black.

To adhere the rest of the elements to the card, I used Crafty Power Tape on the portion of the white cardstock that would lay on the green embossed cardstock. The portion that would extend beyond the embossed edge would get a few 3D Foam Squares, as well as the fussy cut leaf.

We’re hopping all week, so please come back each day for new posts!

Blog Hop With Stampendous Day 1

Posted on October 14, 2013 by Asia King

Welcome to Day 1 of our Blog Hop with Stampendous! We’re thrilled to bring you a week of creative and fun projects! Today I’m starting with … keepsake mini album pages!

The canvas cover for my album was one of my recent DT projects for Stampendous but now it was time to decorate the pages. And what better week to share the finished album than during the blog team up of my two favourite companies :). There are quite a few pages in my album so the ones shown here are just a selection – if you’d like to see the rest of the album, I’d love you to visit my blog and see my today’s post.

There are lots of photos here today so grab yourself a cuppa, make yourself comfortable and let’s begin! For my album pages I used fabulous papers and stickers from Say Cheese collection by Simple Stories.

The inside chipboard covers were decorated with papers, adhered with E-Z Dots® Permanent around the curved edges and filled with E-Z Runner®.

Throughout my album I used a generous bunch of Stampendous stamps:

Cling Better Travel and Fresh Bloom, Perfectly Clear™ stamps Smashing Notes, Soaring Sentiments, Butterfly Charms, Air Travel, Baggage Claim, Elegant Borders, Tiny Alphabet.

Have you tried our new 3d foam shapes yet? This cool banner was made with 3D Foam Pennants covered with patterned paper and stamped with the Tiny Alphabet.

You can hide all your little treasures, entry tickets etc in those cute little Keepsake Envelopes. Also add stamping to your photos with embossing ink and White Detail Embossing Powder.

Add sparkle to your 3D Foam Stars and Frames with Champagne Crushed Glass Glitter, Red Micro Glitter and Black Detail Embossing Powder.

To mount my paper and ribbon tabs I used MyStik and to adhere the layered flowers I used DODZ™ – 3D.

We’re hopping all week, so please come back each day for new posts!

So here is who’s playing today:

Thanksgiving Table Decor

Posted on October 13, 2013 by Kelly Klapstein

Hello everyone!

It’s Kelly here today on Thanksgiving weekend in Canada, so I’d like to share a pretty napkin ring I designed to add a touch of elegance to my dining table today.

With the help of some Crafty Power Tape and new 3D Foam Leaves, this napkin ring is really easy to make.

First I cut the accordion flower with a Sizzix die, and then added a strip of Crafty Power Tape along the scallop edge.

I peeled off the backing and added copper glitter.

After assembling the accordion flower and adhering it together with Crafty Power Tape and Dodz Medium, I made a copper glitter leaf using one of the 3D Foam Leaves.

Next I rolled a piece of paper and attached a second lacy die cut strip to it with more Crafty Power Tape to form the “ring” part of the napkin ring.

I put several Dodz Medium on the back of accordion flower to help it stay put on the ring. Those Dodz definitely keep things in place because of their high tack.

Now I’m ready to set my table!

Do you know what I’m thankful for? I’m thankful for all the wonderful Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L™ products that help make my crafty designs turn out just right!

Happy Crafting!

Kelly Klapstein (aka KellyCreates)

SUPPLIES:

Basic Grey papers, Sizzix dies and Big Shot, EK Success Glitter

Creating Encrusted Embellishments with Designer Shapes

Posted on October 9, 2013 by Kimberly Crawford

Hi, Kimberly here. I know. Don’t be mad. But someone had to start showing holiday cards! I love the new 3D Foam Designer Shapes and how beautiful they can make your handmade holiday cards!

I used the 3D Foam Snowflakes for this card. The different shapes of flakes are beautiful! They are very detailed and can be tricky to remove, so start by lifting the arm of each flake towards the center, then it will come off the backing without any issues. Once the snowflakes were off the backing, I applied them to the card, along with several of the circles. (Leave the top piece of backing on the foam until you are ready to cover them. This will keep from getting the “wrong” medium on the snowflakes.)

The first two snowflakes were covered in Rose Fragments. These fragments are colored flakes of a clay-type material. The flakes were too large for my snowflakes. To make them smaller, I simply mashed them with my fingers until they were the desired size. Then they were sprinkled generously on the snowflakes. I pushed down on the flakes and then tapped off the excess. (Save them and put them back in their container!)

Here is a look at the chunky snowflake. All of the dimension is so cool!

I repeated the same process on the other two snowflakes, but used Shabby Pink embossing enamel. Another very cool effect! The circles got Champagne Crushed Glass glitter, to add even more sparkle.

The sentiment was stamped and heat embossed with gold powder onto vellum. (Thanks to Betsy Veldman for inspiring this!)

So are you in the mood for holiday cards now?

thanks for stopping by!

Layout – Funny Girl

Posted on October 8, 2013 by Stephanie Schütze

Hi there! I want to share a layout with you I made for the Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L® DT.

This is a layout about my daughter and our summer with three different photos and stories behind it.

Here is a step by step tutorial how I made it.

1 – In the first step I’ve placed the materials that I wanted to use: paper and sticker from Basic Grey collection RSVP, white cardstock, some overlays from Hambly, bag from Fancy Pants Parkbench and cards/tag from Amy Tangerine’s Ready Set Go collection and Pink Paislee Hope Chest collection, Polaroid frame from Heidi Swapp, some leftovers and pieces of selfmade paper.

2 – Adhering the white cardstock and two papers behind it with the E-Z Dots Permanent refillable dispenser

3 – Arranging the tags and cards and adhering them also with the E-Z Dots Permanent refillable dispenser

4 – Attaching the last middle layer, a polaroid frame, with 3D Foam Squares White – Mix to highlight it.

5 – I cut out some photo silhouettes.

6 – I adhered them with 3D Foam Squares White – Mix to achieve a 3D effect.

7 – I adhered the (selfmade painted) bird also with 3D Foam Squares White – Mix and I added some stripes, a heart and circle by using the E-Z Dots Permanent refillable dispenser

8 – At least I used alpha sticker and other sticker from Basic Grey collection RSVP. I finished the layout with a Journaling on a tag behind the photo on the right side.

Thanks for visiting! Have a nice day!

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
Skill Level: Intermediate

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!
