Flower Box

Posted on August 2, 2012 by Christine Emberson

Hello – Christine here today and I’ve chosen to show you a ‘pretty in pink’ gift box.

The box is created using Spellbinders Square Petal Top Box.  I selected Echo Park – Summer Days paper. Cut/emboss.

Fold on the embossed lines, to make a crisp crease use a bone folder.  Using your brilliant new E-Z Dots® Permanent, apply the adhesive to the flaps and adhere. It works so well, you can apply the adhesive exactly where you want it and you can be sure of a firm hold.

Next, using different colour felts, cut Spiral Blossoms Three.

Roll and apply E-Z Dots Permanent to the middle section, it is brilliant for sticking fabric and felt too!

Cut and attach a length of ribbon, again this adhesive will work perfectly.

To finish attach the three flowers.  A great gift box to be used for a jewellery or a table favour.

Thanks for stopping by today.

A Rose is a Rose Card

Posted on August 1, 2012 by Beth Pingry

Pink roses are among my favorite flowers, but in this drought anything still in bloom works for me!

Beth Pingry Rose Card

Today’s card features a stamped image of roses. I stamped twice onto white cardstock, colored both sets of flowers with markers, then chose the one I liked best. I added 3D Foam Squares to the back side of the image, directly behind the roses only. I fussy cut the flowers.

For the second image, I airbrushed pink around the edges, then trimmed the image closely.

I colored the exposed foam of the 3D Foam Squares with a light pink marker to reduce the contrast between colored flowers and the stamped image. This was done before adhering them to the stamped image.

The second image was mounted onto medium kraft cardstock, which was sanded and inked, and adhered with E-Z Dots® Permanent adhesive.

Next, I flipped over the image, adhered the fussy cut flowers to the image and added bling. On the back side I used Crafty Foam Tape at all the corners.

I embossed the larger piece and then sanded the details and inked the edges. I tied a white ribbon around the embossed cardstock, secured it in place and mounted it all onto pink cardstock with E-Z Dots® Permanent adhesive.

I didn’t love the bow I tied, so I added a flower on top of it and secured it with Dodz™ 3D adhesive.

You can see the colored foam on this side view, as well as the dimension from the Crafty Foam Tape and 3D Foam Squares.

Here’s a larger front view~

Photo Birthday Card

Posted on July 19, 2012 by Christine Emberson

Hello again, I’m back today featuring a photo birthday card that I created for my mum’s birthday.  It features an original photo of her as a sweet little girl and this is where the Clear Polypropylene Photo Corners proved so useful.  I was able to use them to hold the photo firmly.  At some point if my mum wants to remove the photo she can without any damage.  I’ve also made sure the flowers, swirls and leaves are not attached to the photo by carefully placing them and raising them up with 3D Foam Squares.  The flowers featured are Spellbinders™ Jewel Flowers and Flourishes.

Here you can see how the photo corners are virtually invisible.

A final look at the card.

Here is a list of the products I have used.  Thanks for visiting today.

Simply Amazing Ombre Photo Corners

Posted on July 16, 2012 by Beth Pingry

One of the things I love about the Clear Polypropylene Photo Corners is that you can color them with alcohol based ink. For this quick card I colored the corners with Copic Markers, in colors to create the trendy “ombre” effect.

Simply Amazing Ombre Photo Corner card by Beth Pingry for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

I started with the darkest color for the top row, then lighter for each row. The bottom part of the card features bakers twine tied around it. The embellishment is adhered with White Crafty Foam Tape.

I think this card is a fun way to use supplies beyond the original purpose!

See you soon!

Hello Everyone

Greetings from Australia, it is my turn again and I am getting ready to leave to do some teaching at a Scrapbooking Expo here in Australia. I will be using lots of my favorite 3L Scrapbooking Adhesives and products in my classes. I am teaching 9 classes over three days.

I decided to do a card to share with you. It is an easel card, which means it can stand up. It is quite easy to make. You need 12 x12 inch piece of cardstock. Cut it in half so it is 6 inch wide and 12 inches long. Fold it in half so it is now 6 inches x 6 inches. Have the fold at the top of the card and fold the top layer of the card back on it’s self. The fold will be in the middle of the top 1/4 of the card. The edge of the top of the folded card should be along first fold of the card. This will make the top layer of the card 3 inches wide and 6 inches long. From the left over piece of your cardstock, cut a 6 x 6 inch square. Add tape to the top fold piece of your card. Adhere your 6 x 6 inch square to it. This will allow you to stand the top layer of the card up and it will rest on the bottom layer of the card.

From a piece of Prima Paper, I cut two squares 5 3/4 x 5 3/4 inches. One is for the front of the card and one inside.

I cut some of the images from the Prima print papers and used Thin 3D Foam Squares – Mix White near the top of the image and my E-Z Runner at the bottom. I cut some of the flowers from the print paper as well and used the Thin 3D Foam Squares to build up the images, overlapping them over the ballerina image. I inked a chipboard frame from Imaginarium Designs along with a chipboard title. I used some of Prima’s Flowers and added them over the frame. I found the DODZ™ – Medium perfect for sticking the flowers down. It was so quick and easy with no glue everywhere. For the card to stand up, you need to add a ledge on the bottom layer of the card. I wanted to use some Photo Corners – Classic Style, Silver to give it a classic look.

I thought the silver would look lovely with the soft print paper. I cut 1 inch x 1 inch squares and place a photo corner on the top and bottom point of my squares then overlapped them on top of each other to form a border across the bottom of my card.

I chose some lace to match my card and used my roll of Crafty Power Tape – 81’/25m with Built-In Dispenser to adhere the lace to my card. I find that gluing lace does not work to well for me. It is hard not to get glue on the front of the lace. The Crafty Power Tape was perfect for this. I then place my silver corner border onto the lace using more of my Thin 3D Foam Squares – Mix White. I love using the Foam Squares in whatever size – black or white, thin or thick, they make the job so much easier.

The card looks so pretty with the soft print papers and the the lovely images. The silver Photo Corners – Classic Style, give it such a classic touch.

thanks so much for looking

WEDDING CAKE

Posted on July 5, 2012 by Flo Teixeira

Hi readers !!! Flo here !
Today I want to present a rather unusual project.This is a box who looks like a wedding cake with a handmade cupcake on top made with paper clay. If you want more information on the clay and molds to make the biscuit I’ll meet you on my blog.


This is how to create this project
First we will make the mini cupcake.

You will use a mini paper cupcake and paint the inside in unevenly in brown.
Add paper to fill the cupcake, secure it with DODZ™ – 3D.
Also create 3 sandwich cookies with paper clay and a mold, colored in black with black acrylic paint.

Using a round cutter, the same size as the mold, make a circle in the brown paper clay previously placed in a pocket.

Introduce this round on the mini paper cupcake with DODZ™ – 3D. Using a brush prick around the edge.

Place on top the fake whipped, biscuit, sugar, and finally some fake chocolate chips made ​​with a sharpened pencil.

Decorate the mini paper cupcake with papers. To do so, calk the template of another mold (previously cut).Stick with MyStik™ Permanent Refill Strips that adapts to the curvatures of the form.

Finally fix on the mini paper cupcake with DODZ™ – 3D.

Let us make the cake.

For that, we recycle a box of cheese and a lid slightly smaller and a pot of embossing powder.

Fixed papers on the boxes with MyStik™ Permanent Strips Refill, and DODZ™ – Medium on the pot.

Finally attach on the large box, in the center, the pot and then the smaller lid on the top with DODZ™ – Medium.

It’ll just decorate with the cupcake, flowers and also a card decorated with Photo Corners – Polypropylene, Black.

Supplies :

SCRAPBOOK ADHESIVES BY 3L™: MyStik™ Permanent Strips Refill , DODZ™ – 3D, DODZ™ – Medium, Photo Corners – Polypropylene, Black .

Hi there, Birgit here today with a summery layout.

A picture of my little nephew in my son’s tent while camping last year. He just loves to play games on electronic devices. Doesn’t matter what as long as it has a screen 🙂

All paper strips were applied using E-Z Runner® permanent. For the leaves I used a Spellbinders shapeabilities (Foliage). Before cutting the leaves I put the paper on an Adhesive Sheet 4″x6″/10×15 cm so when the leaves were cut out they were stickers and easy to apply to the layout.

For the transparent strip at the bottom I used  MyStik™  Permanent Fine.

And here’s a better look on the layout:

Happy crafting!

Bird in Flight Card

Posted on July 2, 2012 by Christine Emberson

Hello!  I’m back and this time I’m sharing a card with you featuring a beautiful bird in flight, pretty flowers, a heart sealed in an envelope and quite a lot of red!

For the bottom section of my card I created a little banner border by sticking down a line of Clear Polypropylene Photo Corners – I used a ruler to keep them straight.  Tip: these are super sticky and because I wanted to use them as a mask and remove them easily, I reduced the stickiness by tapping them onto a piece of fabric first – jeans are good!

Once they were positioned, I sprayed the card (somewhat liberally!) with Glimmer Mist.  Wait until dry and then lift the photo corners.

I found this metal heart in my odds and ends box and placed it inside a Keepsake Envelope with a tiny piece of typed backing paper.

Use Crafty Power Tape to adhere ribbon.

To secure the Glitz Design bird die cut and to add dimension, I opted for Crafty Foam Tape.

The flowers and leaves are created from Spellbinders Bitty Blossoms.   I attached them to the card using small 3D Foam Squares.

And here is another look at the finished card.

A list of the products I used:

Hi, it’s Beth here! You know I love photo corners, today I’m using the Polypropylene Photo Corners in Black. These are self adhesive, they come on a roll, and are just as easy to use as the Classic Paper Photo Corners.

This quick card features Glitz Designs papers. I used the Black Polypropylene Photo Corners for the background layer and the ‘post card’ feature layer. They are smooth textured and shiny, with a  reflective ‘bling’ like quality.

Additionally I used MyStik™ Permanent Strips to adhere the layers of papers, and 3D Foam Squares, Black to give dimension to the ‘Postcard’ layer.

Supplies:

Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L™:

Photo Corners – Polypropylene, Black, MyStik™ Permanent Strips, 3D Foam Squares Black Variety Pack

Papers: Glitz Designs French Kiss patterned papers, WorldWin Papers Cardstock

Have a great day!
