You're the Zest Card Tutorial by Teri Anderson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Zest Card Elements

Stamp and die-cutting lemon-themed images from white cardstock. Color them in with markers or pencils. Cut a few extra lemon dies! No need to stamp on them! Use them to add depth and height to one of your stamped lemons by stamping and adhering them on top of each other with the E-Z Runner® Petite Permanent Dots Refillable Dispenser.

Embellish the Card Panel

Take a piece of patterned paper and cut it down to fit on a card. Set the panel on scratch paper and roll some E-Z Runner® Petite Permanent Dots Refillable Dispenser onto it at the top and the bottom. Put as little or as many as you want on it!

Once you’ve placed your dots on your panel, burnish some silver foil (color side facing you) from the Metallic Transfer Foil Sheets in Nature Colors on top of them. This is a great way to add just a little bit of sparkle and shine to a handmade card. Adhere your panel onto a card using the E-Z Runner® Petite Permanent Dots Refillable Dispenser.

Assemble and Finishing Details

Add your stamped images to the card, as well as a stamped sentiment.

Complete the card by placing a few Adhesive Dots Micro on it and burnishing foil onto them. Add a few sequins or gems to the card as well.

Let the Good Times Roll Doggy Journal

Hi, Connie here with a fun “doggy journal” project using patterned papers by Doodlebug Designs and some awesome Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L® products. You will need the Premium Double Sided Tape 1″ to secure the paper to the front covers.

Let the Good Times Roll Doggy Journal by Connie Mercer for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

I used my Zutter paper cutter to get the 4″x 4″ size for the cover and the pages. If you don’t have a way to do this think about just covering a spiral notebook.

Foiled Circles Best Friends Card

Hello crafty friends! Tracy here, and today I have a fun Foiled Circles Best Friends Card to share featuring a 3D Frame Card with 3D Foam Circles White Mix and Metallic Transfer Foil Sheets Celebrate Colors. Here are all of the details on how I created it.

Foiled Circles Best Friends Card by Tracy McLennon for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Foiled Circles Best Friends Card Panel Background

On a white cardstock card panel, I colored it with Distress Oxide Inks and a blending brush to custom-create my color.

Foiled Circles Best Friends Card by Tracy McLennon for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Stamp a focal image onto white cardstock with black ink and add color using Zig Clean Color Markers and a water brush. Fussy cut it out and set it aside. Next, punch out a circle shape from a piece of white cardstock. Make sure to choose a size large enough to frame your stamped image. This will be the base of the dimensional frame. Place it on the inked panel using the E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips Refillable Dispenser.

Foiled Circles Best Friends Card by Tracy McLennon for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Framing Out the Frame

Using 3D Foam Circles White Mix create a design around the white cardstock circle. This creates a dimensional frame.

Foiled Circles Best Friends Card by Tracy McLennon for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Wear Your Adhesive on the Outside with 3D Foam Circles

To determine the color design for the frame, I decided to use the blue and silver foils from the Metallic Transfer Foil Sheets Celebrate Colors. These two combinations will give me the contrast I was looking for.

First, I added the blue foil to the smaller 3D Foam Circles White Mix. Simply remove the liner, place the foil color side facing you, and rub the foil to transfer the color to the shape. Next, peel off the liner to reveal the color. If there are missed areas, reapply the foil in the same manner. Repeat the steps to the other circles.

Foiled Circles Best Friends Card by Tracy McLennon for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Now let’s add the silver foil to the larger 3D Foam Circles White Mix. Repeat the above foiling steps to achieve the Wear Your Adhesive on the Outside technique.

Foiled Circles Best Friends Card by Tracy McLennon for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Add the card front image to the 3D Frame Card using both Thin 3D Foam Squares Black Mix and 3D Foam Squares White Regular Size. This creates just a little more dimension between the frame and the colored image.

Foiled Circles Best Friends Card by Tracy McLennon for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Assemble the Foiled Circles Best Friends Card

Adhere the card panel to the card base with the E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips Refillable Dispenser. Use the Dual Tip Glue Pen to randomly dots around the card front. Add glitter to them for a little galactic sparkle! Finish off the look by adding white gel pen dots and stamping the sentiment with black ink.

Back to School Shaker Card

Hi everyone, Yvonne here with a Back to School Shaker Card. A new school year is about to start and a moment to encourage and wish all the best on a new adventure! Bring a smile to a child’s or teacher’s face with this easy-to-create shaker card.

Back to School Shaker Card by Yvonne van de Grijp for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Embellishing is easy with a technique called Wear Your Adhesive on the Outside using 3D Foam Circles White Mix and glitter…more on that later. Shall we get started?

Back to School Card Panel

Die-cut a frame from a piece of patterned paper. Make sure the frame is slightly smaller than the Back to School panel you want to use. Next, adhere a piece of acetate on the back and cover the frame with the E-Z Runner® Ultra Strong Refillable Dispenser.

Back to School Shaker Card by Yvonne van de Grijp for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Shaker Feature

Place 3D Foam Strips to the back of the panel around the frame to enclose the shaker part to prevent shaker bits from escaping. Also, to keep the panel from sagging place the 3D Foam Strips around the outside of the frame as pictured.

Back to School Shaker Card by Yvonne van de Grijp for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Remove the liners from the inside frame, and fill the shaker with micro beads and sequins. Cover the inside frame with the Back to School panel, and press to secure to close.

Back to School Shaker Card by Yvonne van de Grijp for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Back to School Card Base

Remove the liners from the 3D Foam Strips on the outside frame of the panel and adhere to a black cardstock mat. Then adhere to a white card base using the E-Z Runner® Ultra Strong Refillable Dispenser.

Back to School Shaker Card by Yvonne van de Grijp for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Embellish with Wear Your Adhesive on the Outside

To embellish the Back to School Card, adhere school-themed stickers on the card. For the finishing touch, use 3D Foam Circles White Mix and glitter to accent the card front. Randomly place 3D Foam Circles White Mix on the front card. Remove the liners and sprinkle glitter over the exposed adhesive. Press the glitter to secure and tap off the excess. This technique of taking your adhesive from between layers to become embellishment is called Wear Your Adhesive on the Outside.

Back to School Shaker Card by Yvonne van de Grijp for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Voilá, your Back to School Card is ready to make a child (or teacher) very happy to start a new and exciting School year! Wishing you happy crafting!

Hello Strips Card

Hi, Jamie here today! If you’re like me, you have lots of scraps that you just can’t bear to throw away but don’t know what to do with them. I had these pretty strips laying around and decided to make a Hello Strips Card. My strips are all the same size, but they don’t have to be, just let your creativity flow!

Hello Strips Card by Jamie Martin for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Hello Strips Panel

To make my card I cut white cardstock to 4″ x 5 1/4″ and die-cut a circle in the upper center. Extreme Double-Sided Tape 1/8in was placed on the back of the strips EXCEPT for the strips that go over the die-cut circle. These strips only had the Extreme Double-Sided Tape 1/8in placed on the sides so that if the strips get pushed down, they won’t stick to the card base.

Hello Strips Card by Jamie Martin for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Pop Up the Panel

To lift the panel up on the card, I placed 3D Foam Strips on the back of the panel. Make sure the strips are close to the outer edge and closer to the circle to prevent sagging. For the middle part (the strips over the circle), I decided to place 3D Foam Squares Micro Black on the back of those strips. Remove the paper backing from all and pop the panel on a tan card.

Add The Flower

Stamp a flower using layering stamps, and die-cut it. Pop it up with 3D Foam Squares White Regular. For the stem, I used a 3D Foam Squares Micro Black at the bottom and placed it on the left side of the circle.

Hello Strips Card by Jamie Martin for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Hello Sentiment

Die-cut the Hello from gold cardstock and its shadow from one of the colors of strips. Use the Dual Tip Glue Pen to adhere together and to the card as shown. For the final touch, add gold glitter enamel dots on the bottom right of the card.

Quick Collage Flower Tag

Hi, Judy here today! I put together a very easy collage with Adhesives Sheets 4 x 6in on this tag. I used supplies from my stash: a tag previously sprayed with color, a verse strip, scrap papers, and die-cut flowers…quick and easy!

Quick Collage Flower Tag by Judy Hayes for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Supplies for the Collage Flower Tag

Quick Collage Flower Tag by Judy Hayes for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Gather supplies: #8 tag sprayed or inked with color, torn scrap of white cardstock about 2.25 x 3.75 inches, small scraps of old book pages, printed papers, tissue paper, handwritten notes, lace, white die-cut flower, stamped verse strip inked with Distress Vintage Photo ink and ribbons and strings.

Make a Collage Element

Quick Collage Flower Tag by Judy Hayes for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Peel the back yellow liner on Adhesives Sheets 4 x 6in and place a white cardstock piece on it. Replace the liner and rub well to transfer the adhesive to the cardstock. Lift the liner and remove cardstock. Place it adhesive side up on work surface.

Quick Collage Flower Tag by Judy Hayes for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Place small pieces of torn paper on the adhesive overlapping slightly until the cardstock is covered completely. Tear away any edges that extend beyond cardstock.

Use a sponge applicator to apply Distress Vintage Photo ink to the edges and on the collage as desired. Scribble or make marks with a pencil on it. Place a small piece of ribbon on Adhesives Sheets 4 x 6in to pick up adhesive and place on the collage.

Attach Collage to Tag

Quick Collage Flower Tag by Judy Hayes for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Cut and place 3D Foam Strips Large on the back of the collage piece and peel the liners. Fasten a piece of lace behind the collage on the 3D Foam Strip and then secure the collage to the tag.

Add Flower

Quick Collage Flower Tag by Judy Hayes for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Stack two small 3D Foam Circles White on the back of the flower and Adhesive Dots Mini on the leaves. Peel off the liners and attach the flower over the collage.

Fasten Verse

Quick Collage Flower Tag by Judy Hayes for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Cut strips of 3D Foam Strips Large to fit the back of the verse strip, peel liners, and adhere across the flower and the collage.

Tie Fibers to Tag

Circle Frame Birthday Card

Hello, folks! Jennifer Ingle here today! Back with another fun guest post. This time I pulled out some of the amazing Metallic Transfer Foil Sheets Variety Colors for a super fun look! As you know, it is always fun to Wear your Adhesives on the Outside! I am going to show you how I created this super fun Circle Frame Birthday Card design.

Circle Frame Birthday Card by Jennifer Ingle for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Circle Frame Birthday Card Supplies

To begin, you will need a cardstock panel (4 x 5.25 inch) and a package of the Metallic Transfer Foil Sheets and the 3D Foam Circle Frames from Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L. These frames are AMAZING and have so many awesome possibilities!

Circle Frame Birthday Card by Jennifer Ingle for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Wear Your Adhesive on the Outside with 3D Foam Circle Frames

Leaving the 3D Foam Circle Frames White in place, gently peel the liner off the largest circle you plan to use for your card. I used the second largest circle frame.

Circle Frame Birthday Card by Jennifer Ingle for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Place a piece of the metallic transfer foil over the exposed 3D Foam Circle Frames White. Make sure the color side is facing you. Then use your fingers to gently press it into place to transfer the color to the ring.

Circle Frame Birthday Card by Jennifer Ingle for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Gently lift the foil to reveal your perfectly foiled ring! If there are missed areas, simply reapply the foil. Repeat the foiling steps for each color and ring size you plan to add to your card. Here you can see the four rings I foiled for placement on my card.

Create the Card Design

Next, I cut the entire sheet, still on the backing, in half so I could use both sides of the rings on my design. This does mean I now have cut rings for a future project, but that is totally fine. You could absolutely foil all of them and create two designs at once using this same technique.

Carefully place the half-rings on the card panel.

Circle Frame Birthday Card by Jennifer Ingle for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Prep the Sentiment

Next, you want to blend Grape Soda and Dragonfruit ink on a scrap of white cardstock for the sentiment. Die cut the word Happy from your blended scrap. Stamp Birthday on a strip of cardstock in black ink. Adhere the sentiment to your card, using foam circles for the die-cut portion (to raise it to the same level as the rings) and using the E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips Dispenser for the strip to ensure it stays put!

Assemble the Card

Cut and score a sheet of coordinating cardstock for your card base. I used Hero Arts Adriatic for my base.

Circle Frame Birthday Card by Jennifer Ingle for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Finally, adhere your panel to the card base with your E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips Dispenser to complete your design. The shine really is absolutely wonderful!

Thank you so much for joining me today with the Circle Frame Birthday Card and happy foiling!

Snail Mail Card

Hi, everyone! Raise your hand if you love sending cards to your friends and loved ones! Teri here to show you to make a super cute card to drop in the mail next time you go to send out some happy snail mail!

Snail Mail Card by Teri Anderson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Stamped Images and Shapes

Start by stamping and die-cutting a few mail-themed images and sentiments. Color them in with markers (or pencils)!

Snail Mail Card by Teri Anderson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Pop Them Up

Use a combination of 3D Foam Squares Mix in White and 3D Foam Large Strips in White on the back of them. Is your strip or square too large? No problem! Use your scissors to cut the foam down to fit perfectly on your die-cut elements!

Snail Mail Card by Teri Anderson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Put the Card Together

Set your die-cut images aside and apply strips of patterned paper to a card base with the E-Z Runner® Grand Ultra Strong Refillable Dispenser. Great for a strong hold!

Snail Mail Card by Teri Anderson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Last Touches

Set your largest die-cut element upside down and apply 3D Foam Strips Large White on the back. Next, take a piece of thread or twine and randomly place it across it, allowing some of the fiber to “peek out” from behind the die-cut. Place the die-cut shape on your card.

Snail Mail Card by Teri Anderson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L
Snail Mail Card by Teri Anderson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Add your other stamped images to the card as well. Complete your card by embellishing it with sequins. Adhesive Dot Micro works well for this – the size is perfect! Simply place an Adhesive Dot on your card and set a sequin right on top!

Snail Mail Card by Teri Anderson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

I felt like the snail was floating a bit after I completed my card so I took a marker and scribbled a little shadow underneath it. Another fun idea would have to put some adhesive under it and add some flock or glitter to it. Maybe I’ll try that with my next card!

Best Friends Forever Card

Hi everyone, Yvonne here with a super cute Best Friends Forever Card. This card is easy to create, even for beginner card makers. And a finishing touch is added using the technique called Wear Your Adhesive on the Outside.

Best Friends Forever Card by Yvonne van de Grijp for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Wanna join me in creating the card? Let’s get started!

Card Base

Start by making the card base for the Best Friends Forever Card. Trim a piece of patterned paper into a rectangular panel. This will be your top card panel. Then adhere to a soft grey card panel and then to a white card base. To adhere the layers, I used the E-Z Runner® Grand Refillable Dispenser.

Best Friends Forever Card by Yvonne van de Grijp for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Adding Dimension

To add some dimension to your Best Friends Forever Card, mat a die-cut notebook paper onto a piece of white cardstock with the E-Z Runner® Grand Refillable Dispenser. Then place diagonally onto the card using 3D Foam Squares White Regular Size. This will add a nice dimension to your card.

Best Friends Forever Card by Yvonne van de Grijp for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Place a kitty shaker sticker onto the card, and adhere a die-cut banner onto the card with 3D Foam Squares White Regular Size for extra dimension. To fit the banner, I cut some 3D Foam Squares White Regular in half.

Wear Your Adhesive on the Outside

For an extra luxurious and soft effect on my Best Friends Forever Card I used a technique called Wear Your Adhesive on the Outside.  Start by adhering E-Z Runner® Hearts Refillable Dispenser onto the card. I like to use tweezers for precise placement of the hearts.

Best Friends Forever Card by Yvonne van de Grijp for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Then rub some white flock over the hearts. This will create a soft texture on the hearts….just like kittten fur! Simply tab off the excess flock and voilá…your Best Friends Forever card is ready.

Hi, Connie here with a fun pet lover card, You’re My Best Pal Card, using die cuts by Doodlebug Design, and 3D Foam Adhesives. Using patterned papers and matching die cuts make it easy and fast to create themed cards. For an added touch the pattern paper can be added to the flap of the envelope.
