A Friend Like You Card

Posted on April 7, 2023 by Teri Anderson

Hi, everyone! Teri here to show you how to create a special card to give them a warm and fuzzy feeling. Send this A Friend Like You Card with a little flock and 3D Foam Shapes!

A Friend Like You Card by Teri Anderson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Frame the Friend Card Front

Start by adhering a few strips of patterned paper onto a piece of cardstock. Place a 3D Foam Circle Frame on top. Use your scissors to fussy cut the frame out.

Next, adhere the frame to a panel of cardstock and add a second 3D Foam Circle Frame around it. Stamp a friendship sentiment in the middle of the frame as shown.

Embellish the Card

Fill up the area around your frame by adding 3D Foam Circles and 3D Foam Stars, plus some additional E-Z Runner® Stars. Don’t be afraid to cut up your shapes with your scissors to fit your design and add balance.

Apply flock to your shapes. If you want a subtle look, use a flock of the same color as your paper panel. Want a bolder look? Use a bright color of flock!

Stamp, die-cut, and color in a couple of animal (or flower) stamps. Add them to your panel. If you have some leftover foam pieces, cut them up with your scissors and use them to mount your critters.

Complete your card by embellishing it with sequins. Don’t worry if you don’t have the same supplies I used to make my card. Simply change out the elements and use the supplies you have!

I hope you’re inspired to make a friendship card as I did!

Intricate Bohemian Card

Posted on April 5, 2023 by Yvonne van de Grijp

Hi everyone, Yvonne here with an Intricate Bohemian-styled card. For this card, I used a thin metal cutting die with an intricate pattern which makes this card very easy to create. It can be a suitable way for beginner card makers. Isn’t it stunning? I would love to share how I made my Bohemian card, let me show you.

Intricate Bohemian Card by Yvonne van de Grijp for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Creating the Top Card Panel

Start by die-cutting the intricate pattern from soft grey cardstock. Designer’s Tip: run the die-template several times through your die-cutting machine to make sure that the Bohemian pattern is perfectly cut. Then carefully remove the cardstock from the craft die. Next, use a paper trimmer to cut the paper to the desired size. Now apply 3D Foam Strips around the edges of the die-cut panel. Adhere 3D Foam Squares Micro White to the intricate parts of the die-cut panel.

Next carefully remove the liner from the 3D Foam Strips and 3D Foam Squares Micro White and adhere the die-cut onto a bright pink card panel. Designer’s Tip: tweezers are a great tool for precise positioning of the 3D Foam Squares Micro White. Using 3D foam products adds a beautiful lifting effect to your Bohemian card.

Making the Card Base

First, adhere the bright pink card panel onto a soft pink card panel using the E-Z Runner Grand Refillable Dispenser for affixing.

Then adhere to a white card base, again using the E-Z Runner Grand Refillable Dispenser for affixing.

Embellishing the Card

Now it’s time to embellish the Bohemian card. First, adhere a soft pink gerbera to the card. For adhering the flower I used Adhesive Dots Large.

For a finishing touch adhere a few rhinestones to the card. And voilá, your Bohemian card is ready to make someone feel very special to you. I hope you enjoyed this simple tutorial and wish you happy crafting

More Than Enough Card

Posted on April 3, 2023 by Connie Mercer

Hi, Connie here with a mixed media More Than Enough Card to share. Use adhesive on the outside, along with stencils and stamps to create a wonderful dimensional card. Featuring the Adhesive Sheets 4×6, Metallic Transfer Foil Sheets Nature Colors, and 3D Foam Strips, it’s a great place to start. Let me walk you through a short tutorial.

More Than Enough Card by Connie Mercer for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

More than Enough Card Background

1. Distress card front on heavy mixed media cardstock using Distress Oxide inks (I went with blue tones).
2. Add portions of the Adhesive Sheets 4×6 randomly on the card front. Crumple up the bronze color from the Metallic Transfer Foil Sheets Nature.
3. Place over the exposed adhesive (color side UP). Pull up to reveal the wonderful results! Repeat until your desired look.
4. Now the card front is ready for stamps and stencils to be added. That’s the fun part!!

The next step is to add in the strips of ephemera with the Dual Tip Glue Pen and it works great!! Stamps and stencils were added. The sentiment was adhered with 3D Foam Strips.

A combination of Crafty Foam Tape 108ft and E-Z Runner® Grand Refillable Dispenser was used to adhere the front panel to the card base.

Designer’s Tip: Speckle the card front with acrylic white paint. Makes everything look better 🙂 :).

Special Day Shaker Card

Posted on April 1, 2023 by Jamie Martin

Hi, Jamie here today! I am excited to share a shaker card made from a pretty paper pad. It’s easy to assemble using the right adhesives from Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L.

Special Day Shaker Card by Jamie Martin for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Preparing the Card Base and Background

To start I splattered white ink on a dusty pink panel and mounted it to an off-white card using E-Z Dots® Permanent Refillable Dispenser. Note: I have my E-Z Dots® Permanent Refill in my red E-Z Runner® Refillable Dispenser. I love that I don’t have to order a whole new dispenser but just the refill. 🙂

Two coordinating papers from the pad were die-cut using a Nested Deckle Rectangle Die, both sheets are the same size. Layer them slightly askew and secure with the E-Z Dots® Permanent Refillable Dispenser.

Die-cutting the Tag and Window

Die-cut the floral paper using the Holiday Tags Die. Then cut with a smaller tag die from the set centered on the tag. I didn’t want the top part of the tag die-cut, so I placed the embossing plate at the bottom scallop of the die and ran it through my embossing machine. This will make only the bottom portion of the tag cut (see bottom right image). Place a ruler across the tag and use a craft knife to cut it off. Don’t forget to cut on a self-healing mat.

Preparing the Shaker Window

The decorative paper isn’t thick so I resolve that by die-cutting the tag with the cutout from white cardstock to make it sturdy when it pops up. Adhere the two pieces using the E-Z Dots® Permanent Refillable Dispenser. Die-cut the acetate using the larger die and attach it to the back of the tag using the E-Z Dots® Permanent Refillable Dispenser.

The Final Touches

Adhere the die-cut paper panels using the E-Z Dots® Permanent Refillable Dispenser. Place shaker bits in the center of the panel. Add the tag on top.

Adhere 3D Foam Circles White Mix on the back of the sentiment and pop it up in the center of the acetate. Cut the butterflies from one of the papers, slightly bend the wings, and glue them to the card with the Dual Tip Glue Pen. Lastly, pale pink enamel dots were placed on the card.

Masculine HBD Card

Posted on March 29, 2023 by Judy Hayes

Hi, Judy here today to share a vintage-inspired masculine Happy Birthday Card. It features 3D Foam Frames and HBD letters cut from 3D Foam Creative Sheets Small Black covered with the black foil from the Metallic Transfer Foil Sheets Nature Colors. It’s a simple technique called Wear Your Adhesive on the Outside that adds a unique look.

Masculine HBD Card by Judy Hayes for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Stamping and Inking Pieces

Stamp all images with Archival Black Soot ink and rub with Distress Vintage Photo and Black Soot inks.

These are the pieces needed:

Base Card from 4.25 x 5.5 inches ivory cardstock with a fold on the long edge. Stamp with various images around the edges.
Ivory panel stamped with an invoice image and trimmed to 3.25 x 4.5 inches plus black mat 3.75 x 4.625 inches.
Ivory strip 0.5 x 4.5 inches stamped with a metric ruler.
Image of men and pointing hand stamped and fussy cut out.

Assemble Framed Image

Carefully remove the sixth and the seventh largest frame from the 3D Foam Frames (counting the smallest rectangle as #1) and place them on the stamped invoice panel.

Peel the liners off. With the black foil from the Metallic Transfer Foil Sheets Nature Colors, press the foil (color side up) over the frames. Remove foil, check for coverage, and reapply foil as needed.

Trim the stamped men’s image as needed to fit inside the frame. Place Thin 3D Foam Squares Black Mix on the back side, and cut to fit as needed. Peel the liners and position the image inside the frame.

Use E-Z Runner® Ultra Strong Refillable Dispenser to apply adhesive to the back of the frame piece and attach it to the black mat. Apply adhesive to the ruler strip and fasten it along the bottom of the framed piece.

Secure to the card by applying the adhesive with E-Z Runner® Ultra Strong Refillable Dispenser on the back and place on the card.

Hand and HBD Letters

Place Thin 3D Foam Squares Black Mix on the back of the pointing hand, peel liners, position over the frame on the left corner, and press in place.

Die cut letters H, B, and D from 3D Foam Creative Sheets Small Black. Carefully remove letters from the dies, peel the liner from the back side, and fasten over the ruler image on the card. Peel liners from the front of letters, cover with the black foil from the Metallic Transfer Foil Sheets Nature Colors, rub to transfer foil (color side facing up), and peel away the foil.

Place three 3D Foam Squares Micro Black to the left of HBD, peel away liners, and cover with the black foil from the Metallic Transfer Foil Sheets Nature Colors. Make sure the foil color is facing up, press well to transfer the foil color, and peel the foil off to reveal the color!

Shine Mixed Media Tag

Posted on March 26, 2023 by Martha Lucia Gomez

Hello crafty friends, Martha Lucia here today! Today I have a Mixed Media Tag with lots of shine! To create this I used Metallic Transfer Foil Sheets in the easiest way that you can duplicate for all your crafting ideas. Let me share the details of how I created this Mixed Media Tag.

Shine Mixed Media Tag by Martha Lucia Gomez for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Start with the Background

In my today’s project, I am using a pre-made tag that I have in my stash. However, you can create your own tag using your favorite color of cardstock and any shaped die cut. The size of mine is 5-14″ x 2-3/4″ and it was made on white cardstock.

First, I sprayed it with Fireworks (liquid ink) applying color by color and letting it dry in between the colors. It took me around fifteen minutes because I let the ink dry naturally but you can speed the process using a heat tool. The colors of Fireworks that I used were Sweet Plum, Paris Dusk, and Cantaloupe.

Wear Your Adhesive on the Outside with Foils

To add more sparkle and create the mixed media effect over the tag I used Metallic Transfer Foil Sheets Celebrate Colors. On this opportunity, I used Gold, Red, and Blue Metallic Transfer Foil, in combination with the E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips Refillable Dispenser and the E-Z Dots® Permanent Refillable Dispenser. I randomly applied the adhesive and cover it with the three selected colors of Metallic Transfer Foil.

Embellish the Tag

To finalize my project, I used digital stamps that I just printed onto white smooth cardstock, colored with alcohol markers, and fussy cut with scissors. I pasted them over the tag with 3D Foam Squares White in Mix and 3D Foam Squares Micro White which is 1/8-inch in size, for the smaller parts.

As a final touch, just tied a bow of baker’s twine.

Thanks A Latte Card

Posted on March 23, 2023 by Teri Anderson

Hi, everyone! Teri here to show you how to make a super cute coffee-themed Thanks a Latte Card for your favorite caffeine-lover!

Thanks A Latte Card by Teri Anderson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Build the Thanks a Latte Frame and Card Base

Start by placing a 3D Foam Frame on a piece of patterned paper. Use your scissors to cut the frame out.

Mount the frame onto a card base. Randomly place several small 3D Foam shapes around the frame and along the edges of the card. Don’t be afraid to cut the shapes up and use only parts of them.

Remove the release paper on all the foam shapes, including the 3D Foam Frame. Dump flock on top. Use your fingers to make sure the flock is fully burnished onto the shapes.

Remove the excess flock. Be sure to give the card a good tap to really remove any extra flock pieces. Designer’s Tip: try a brush to sweep away the stubborn ones.

Stamping and Embellishing Your Card

Cut and stamp several coffee cups. Color them in with markers. Die-cut and stamp a coffee-themed sentiment for your Thanks a Latte Card as well.

Arrange the coffee cups on your card. Add some 3D Foam Strips behind a couple of the coffee cups to make them pop up off the card. Do the same for the sentiment.

Add a few stars from the E-Z Runner® Stars Refillable Dispenser to your card. I like to grab them right off my dispenser and place them onto the card, right where I want them. Sprinkle some flock on each one, making sure to really press it down with your fingers so it sticks.

Complete your card by taking a few sequins and adhering them to your card with Adhesive Dots Micro.

Use this card to jot a note to your favorite coffee lover. You could also turn it into a gift card holder and add a gift card inside it. Just use E-Z Dots® Repositionable Dispenser to hold it in place.

I hope you are inspired to make your own coffee-themed card like this Thanks a Latte Card.

Romantic Slimline Card With Dimension

Posted on March 21, 2023 by Tracy McLennon

Hello crafty friends! Tracy here, and today I have a pretty and soft Romantic Slimline Card packed with dimension. See all the details on how I created this. Let me show you how!

Romantic Slimline Card With Dimension by Tracy McLennon for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Let’s Get Crafty!

Cut all of my base patterned paper layers and create the card base for the Romantic Slimline Card. The base is white cardstock cut to 8.5 x 7.5 inches and folded in half. Cut the heart-patterned paper to 3.75 x 8.5 inches. This will cover the entire card front.

I added a patterned strip up the side, a little blue patterned banner, and a chunk of pink patterned paper for the bottom that has the top edge torn. All of these layers have the edges distressed.

I used the E-Z Runner® Ultra Strong Refillable Dispenser to attach the hearts, pink, and blue patterned paper pieces to the white cardstock card base. Then I used the Crafty Foam Tape Black to adhere the patterned border up the side of the slimline card.

Fussy cut out bits and pieces from the patterned paper then add them to the card using Thin 3D Foam Squares Black Mix.

Nothing says dimension like beautiful flowers on a project. But they can be tricky to stick down. I love using Adhesive Dots Large Repositionable, and sometimes I even layer them for more gooey stickiness.

Create clumps of white thread, add the Adhesive Dots Large Repositionable to the larger flowers, and adhere them on top of the clusters of thread. Use the Adhesive Dots Micro for the smaller flowers.

The final touch on this Romantic Slimline Card is to add some sparkly gems around the flower clusters.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Keyring Gift Tags

Posted on March 18, 2023 by Connie Mercer

Hi, Connie here with a fun project using cutting dies, stamps, and the E-Z Runner® Grand Repositionable Dots Refillable Dispenser. Cutting dies are a perfect tool to make small Keyring Gift Tags that look so cute on a gift bag or a wrapped present.

Keyring Gift Tags by Connie Mercer for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Just a few things to keep in mind when choosing the cutting die. The top of the die needs to be flat or close. You’ll see why when you cut your first tag.

Steps to Die-cutting Images

1. Examples of dies that will work. All have a flat part on the top or close to it.
2. Using white cardstock measure the size that you will need to fit the die you will be cutting. Fold the cardstock in half. Adhere a small piece of repositionable adhesive, using the E-Z Grand Repositionable Dots Refillable Dispenser, to keep the cardstock in place while running it through the cutting machine. Lay the die on the cutting mat first and then lay the folded cardstock over the die (just below the top cut line). This will give you the fold. Tip: If you want pattern paper on the front of the image you will need to cut those also at this time.
3. Two of my die cuts required stamping to get the detail lines. To make this very easy, stamp on copy paper (using a stamping platform) the image that needs to be stamped.
4. Lay the die cut (white cardstock) over the stamped image and tag it with E-Z Grand Repositionable Dots Refillable Dispenser, so the image doesn’t move. Stamp, lift up, and rub repositionable adhesive off of the stamping platform.

Keyring Gift Tag Assembly

The patterned paper, covering the coffee travel mug, is adhered with the E-Z Runner® Grand Refillable Dispenser along with the top of the mug. The sentiments are adhered with the 3D Foam Strips in Black and 3D Foam Strips in White.

The Dual Tip Glue Pen is perfect for finishing up the loose ends that need to be adhered. Punch a hole in the top of the travel coffee mugs to add the key chain.

To complete the truck and jeep, repeat the same steps as the mugs with the exception of coloring them in Distress Oxide inks. They turned out great! Fun and will look fab on a gift bag!

Mosaic Glitter and Foil Card

Posted on March 17, 2023 by Yvonne van de Grijp

Hi everyone, Yvonne here with a Mosaic Glitter and Foil card. To create this stunning effect, I used the Wear Your Adhesive on the Outside technique with glitter and Metallic Transfer Foil Sheets Pastel Colors. The great thing about this card is….it’s super easy to create, so also suitable for beginner cardmakers! Wanna join me in creating the card? Let’s get started!

Mosaic Glitter and Foil Card by Yvonne van de Grijp for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Mosaic Top Card Panel

Start making the Glitter and Foil Card by sanding the top liner of a 3D Foam Creative Sheets Small, Black just a little.

I sanded the top liner because I want to draw lines with a pen and this way the drawn lines are more visible and the ink from my pen smooches less easily…. it’s just a tip 😉. Next draw lines and circles on the top liner of the 3D Foam Creative Sheets Small, Black.

Now remove the back liner of the 3D Foam Creative Sheets Small, Black, and adhere onto a piece of black cardstock. Then use a craft knife to cut along the lines and through the top liner of the 3D Foam Creative Sheets Small, Black.

If you cut into the foam, that is no problem at all, just do not cut all the way through the cardstock.

Creating Glitter and Foil Fun

Now the glitter and foil fun starts. Carefully take of some of the pieces of the (cut) top liner of the 3D Foam Creative Sheets Small, Black. Then take a piece of Metallic Transfer Foil Sheets Pastel Colors and place it over the adhesive parts with the color of the foil (for example green) facing up. Then use your finger to rub the foil over the adhesive and then carefully remove the Metallic Sheet.

Repeat this with several colors of foil.

Then remove some parts of the 3D Foam Creative Sheets Small, Black, and rub some glitter over the revealed adhesive parts. Repeat using several colors of glitter.

The technique for making your adhesive shine is called Wear Your Adhesive on the Outside.

Adhering Ribbon

To adhere the satin ribbon around the top Card panel of the Glitter and Foil Card I used the E-Z Runner Grand Refillable Dispenser. Simply fold the ends of the ribbon around the top card panel and adhere the ends to the back of the card panel. Then adhere to a white card base using the E-Z Runner Grand Refillable Dispenser.

The Finishing Touch

For a finishing touch, I adhered a sticker sentiment onto a white banner I cut (using Scissors) from white cardstock. Then adhere to the Mosaic Glitter and Foil Card using the E-Z Runner Grand Refillable Dispenser. And voilá, your Mosaic Glitter and Foil Card is finished!

I hope you enjoyed this simple tutorial and wish you happy crafting!
