Layered Floral Vase Card

Posted on April 7, 2022 by Teri Anderson

Hi, everyone! Don’t you just love Spring and all the flowers? Teri here to show you how to put together a stamped card featuring lots of flowers and layers!

Layered Floral Vase Card by Teri Anderson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

It’s the perfect card to send to a friend during the Spring season!

Embellish the Card Base

Apply E-Z Runner® Petite Permanent Dots Refillable Dispenser randomly along the edges. Next, apply the gold foil from the Metallic Transfer Foil Sheets Holographic Colors (color side UP), and burnish the foil onto the adhesive. Make sure to really rub the foil onto the adhesive, covering up all the sticky parts. Reapply the foiled in missed areas.

The Card Panel

Dry-emboss a panel of white cardstock with an embossing folder. Mount it onto the card base with Crafty Power Tape Polybag 81ft.

Stamping the Focal Point

Stamp a floral vase, along with a few flowers and a sprig of leaves, on cardstock. Color them in with markers and die-cut them. If you don’t have coordinating dies, use your scissors to fussy cut them out. Use Thin 3D Foam Squares White Mix to adhere the flowers and leaves to the vase and then mount the vase onto your card.

Wear Your Adhesive on the Outside Technique with Foil

Metallic paint splatters are really popular in card making right now. You can easily mimic the look by applying Adhesive Dots Micro to your card. You can bend and stretch them as you apply them to paper to look more like splatters or use them as they are. Apply the same gold foil from the Metallic Transfer Foil Sheets Holographic Colors onto the dots. You can add as few or as many “faux splatters” as you want on your card.

The end result is one really pretty layered card! Remember, you don’t have to use the exact same stamps as I did. Check out your stash for something similar that will work.

I hope you are inspired to make a floral card of your own!

Happy crafting,
Teri Anderson

Glitter Rainbow Card

Posted on April 5, 2022 by Yvonne van de Grijp

Hi everyone, Yvonne here with a glitter rainbow card. I love cute cards and this one is a sweet one fors ure!

Glitter Rainbow Card by Yvonne van de Grijp for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

To make the rainbow on my card, I used a technique called Wear Your Adhesive on the Outside. Wanna join me in making this card?

Making the Background

Start by making the background for the Rainbow card. Take a piece of smooth white cardstock and lay a large sticky note horizontally over the cardstock. To make the sky, make sure the sticky part facing down + and in the direction north as shown on the photo below.

This prevents the sticky note from curling when adding the ink. Now use an ink blending tool and blue ink to create the sky. Then remove the sticky note and add a new one now with the sticky part facing south. Use green ink and an ink blending tool to create the grass.

Making the Glittered Rainbow

To make the glittered Rainbow I used 3D Foam Circle Frames White. Use a craft knife to cut the biggest 5 circles in half. Now carefully remove the half circle at once from the back liner and adhere to the colored top card panel.

Now carefully remove the top liner of the smallest half circle. Rub some yellow glitter upon and rub the glitter over the sticky half circle.

Tap off any excess glitter or like me, use a soft brush to remove the excess glitter. Repeat with the next circles using orange, lilac, blue and white glitter.

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

Adding the Stamped Elements

First, stamp the images onto watercolor paper using a black ink pad. Then color the images. Next fuzzy cut the images using fine scissors and a craft knife. Then adhere the images onto the top card panel using Thin 3D Foam Squares White Mix, 3D Foam Squares White Mix and for the tiny parts 3D Foam Strips.

By stacking different heights of 3D Foam Squares you create an extra 3D dimensional effect. Then stamp the sentiment onto the card panel using a black ink pad.

Finishing the Card

Now the top card panel of the glitter Rainbow card is finished, trim the panel to the desired size. Then mat upon a blue card panel and next onto a white card base. For adhering I used the E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips Refillable Dispenser.

And voilá your Glitter Rainbow Card is ready. I hope you enjoyed this tutorial and wish you happy crafting!

Happy Easter Notepad Tutorial

Posted on April 3, 2022 by Connie Mercer

Hi, Connie here with a Happy Easter Notepad that would make a wonderful family project. The tags, on the front, could be created separately and then added to the notepad cover. The covers are created from half a sheet of pattern paper. I used two sheets of double-sided pattern paper making four notepads.

Happy Easter Notepad Tutorial by Connie Mercer for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Easter Notepad Step Outs

You will need to gather some supplies to get started. Your favorite pattern paper, stamps, tags, inks, and 3D foam adhesive.

1. To get started you will need a notepad 5″ x 8″ cut down the middle making two notepads 2 1/2″x 4″. I buy a pack of six at the office supply store and have them cut them. The charge is minimal for this service. To create the covers you will need to cut the pattern paper to 6″ x 8 1/4″. Find the middle of the paper and score 1/8″ on each side of that line. The topper for the notepad needs to be cut at 2 1/2″ x 2 1/2″.
2. Next you will create the tags that will go on the covers of the notepads.

The Notepad

1. Use Premium Double Sided Tape 1″ by HomeHobby to secure the notepad to the inside of the folder. Don’t stick it down yet.
2. Attach the topper piece and press the notepad into place.
3. Wrap a piece of twine around the folder and secure the twine with the Premium Double Sided Tape 1″ by HomeHobby. Don’t remove the tear away paper.

Tag Creations

1. Make a water mixture with Distress Oxide inks and run the tags through for a mixed media look.
2. Stamp images on the tags or stamp on white cardstock and trim out. I did both.
3. Using the Creative Memories cutting tools reinforcers were cut, in matching pattern paper, the center hole punched and then adhered with the Dual Tip Glue Pen.
4. Using the 3D Foam Square White Mix and the 3D Foam Circles White Mix to adhere the embellishments to the tag front.

Twine Placement

One last thing left to do. Secure the twine on the back of the notepad.

1. Cut a piece of pattern paper 2 1/4″ x 1 1/4″ and place Premium Double Sided Tape 1″ to the back of the rectangle and place it over the twine to stabilize.
2. Stamp and sign your work. Ready for gift giving!!!

For All You Do Gift Box by Jamie Martin for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

For All You Do Gift Box Step Outs

Die-cut a box using a thick decorative cardstock. It’s hard to see in the photo but mine is silver polka dots on a white background. The box is made using two dies, the front, and the back, each piece has a tab that attaches to the other piece. Strips of Premium Double-Sided Tape 1/4″ were placed on each flap, attached to the pieces, and folded in the box.

Create the Sentiment

Die-cut two long ovals twice from white cardstock. One oval had the sentiment was stamped on with VersaMark Ink and embossed with silver embossing powder. The second one had been ink blended with a green color. Use the E-Z Dots® Permanent Refillable Dispenser to attach the green oval behind the sentiment oval as shown.

Lift up the sentiment oval using the 3D Foam Squares White Mix. Set the box aside.

Embellishing the Box

Rub VersaMark ink over a Blossom Chippie, cover it with a translucent pink glitter embossing powder and melt with a heating tool. Center a yellow enamel dot in the flower to finish.

Ink blend a Leaf Chippy with green ink. Next, apply a strip of Premium Double-Sided Tape 1/2″ and placed the Leaf Chippy diagonally on the box. Place an Adhesive Dots Micro on the back of the flower, I adhered it on the bottom right of the leaf. For the final touch, die-cut a butterfly from patterned paper and center a small epoxy dot on the body. Bend the wings up and secure the butterfly with an Adhesive Dots Micro on the lid.

Hello Rainbow Striped Cards

Posted on March 25, 2022 by Teri Anderson

Hi, everyone! Is “rainbow” your favorite color like mine? Teri here, and a fun way to add rainbows to your handmade Hello Rainbow cards is to create rainbow backgrounds!

Hello Rainbow Striped Cards by Teri Anderson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Hello Rainbow Paper Strips Arrangement

Start by cutting a panel of cardstock to fit on a card. Cut several strips of patterned paper in rainbow colors. Affix them to your panel, mimicking the look of a rainbow, using the E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips Refillable Dispenser.

Give your rainbow background a hint of glitz by applying strips of Crafty Power Tape Polybag 81ft onto it, over where the paper strips meet up. A trick I use to make sure the tape is fully down on my paper is to rub an air hockey paddle over it. The felt at the bottom of the paddle makes it perfect for rubbing it over the tape and burnishing it onto the paper. Remove the release paper and cover the strips with glitter.

Embellish with Stamps, Sentiment and Etc.

Adhere your rainbow panel to your card and decorate it by adding a stamped sentiment and some stamped images, using the E-Z Runner® Petite Permanent Dots Refillable Dispenser. Make your images pop by mounting them onto the card with 3D Foam Squares Micro White.

Complete your card by adding a few 3D Foam Hearts and applying flock to them. Add a few sequins or gems with the Adhesive Dots Micro because of its perfect size!

Making More Rainbows

I used small strips of paper to make the rainbow pattern on my first card. You can mix it up by using wider paper strips or a mixture of wide and thin strips.

Just like the first card, add some glitz by adding glitter to your card as well.

Thank you so much for stopping by today! I’d love to see your take on making some rainbow backgrounds for your cards! Share a link in the comments so I can stop by and check out your work!

Happy crafting,
Teri Anderson

Foiled Circle Happy Everything Card

Posted on March 21, 2022 by Tracy McLennon

Hello crafty friends! Tracy here, and today I have a pretty little foiled circle card to share. Adhesives can be beautiful and the focal point of your crafty projects. Here are all of the quick and easy details.

Foiled Circle Happy Everything Card by Tracy McLennon for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Wear Your Adhesive on the Outside

The first step to creating the Foiled Circle Card is to cut your cardstock layers. The card base is A2 from white cardstock. Cut a piece of white cardstock to 4×5.25 and a piece of black cardstock to 3.75×5. Using circle punches I punched circles that were 1″, 1.5″ and 2″. Then traced them onto the black cardstock using a pencil.

Using 3D Foam Circles Black Mix I covered the traced circles using both sizes, and sometimes a combination of the 2 sizes.

Take out the Metallic Transfer Foil Sheets Holographic Colors, I chose to use the rainbow foil. Remove the backing from the 3D Foam Circles Black Mix and cover them all using the Metallic Transfer Foil Sheets Holographic Colors. Add the large white cardstock circle to the Foiled Circle Card using 3D Foam Circles Black Mix.

Die-cut out the sentiment from gold cardstock and adhere to the white cardstock circle on the Foiled Circle Card using the Dual Tip Glue Pen.

Adhere the card front to the white cardstock mat using the E-Z Runner® Petite Permanent Dots Refillable Dispenser. Place this to the card base of the Foiled Circle Card using Crafty Foam Tape White.

Smile Dimensional Step Card

Hi, Connie here with a Smile Dimensional Step Card that looks really FUN featuring 3D Foam Adhesive. The foam adhesive gives extra interest to the card and makes the embellishments pop off the page. Kind of like an explosion of excitement to a card!

Smile Dimensional Step Card by Connie Mercer for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Assembling the Step Card

Before starting, we need to create the step card base by die-cutting it through a manual machine. Then measure and cut the patterned papers to fit the different areas of the card. This takes a few minutes to complete. Now the fun part! Deciding on what chipboard and embellishments to add.

Embellishing the Step Card

1. Adhere the pattern paper pieces to the card front using the E-Z Runner Grand Refillable Dispenser. Take the small heart embellishment and adhere using the 3D Foam Squares Micro White .
2. Using the 3D Squares White Mix and 3D Foam Circles White Mix for the larger embellishments for a strong hold.
3. The Dual Tip Glue Pen by HobbyHome is used to secure the chipboard word (FUN) to the bottom of the card. The word sticker is adhered with 3D Foam Strips Large White.

CAS Love Birds Card

Posted on March 17, 2022 by Yvonne van de Grijp

Hi everyone, Yvonne here with a CAS (Clean and Simple) love birds card. The fun of making CAS cards is to keep a card as simple as possible so you don’t need a lot of material to make one.

CAS Love Birds Card by Yvonne van de Grijp for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

For my CAS Love Birds card, I used one stamp set only and of course several Scrapbook Adhesives® by 3L adhesives. Add a technique called Wear Your Adhesives on the Outside. I would love to share how I made my card. Will you join me?

Love Birds Card Panel + Base

Start by making a yellow circle on a white piece of cardstock. Simply ink an ink blending tool with a little yellow ink and create a yellow circle by dabbing the ink on the middle of the cardstock and gently smooch the ink outward to a bigger circle shape.

Remember to build the circle with multiple layers of light inking. This prevents ink stains.

Next, adhere the colored cardstock onto a piece of kraft cardstock using the E-Z Runner® Grand Refillable Dispenser with the E-Z Runner® Grand Ultra Strong Refill for extra-strong adhering. It’s easy to switch to your needed refill, see the How to Use and Refill E-Z Runner Grand Dispensers video.

OR you can use the stand-alone E-Z Runner® Grand Ultra Strong Refillable Dispenser. Next, adhere to a white card base.

Adding the Love Birds

First, stamp some birds onto white cardstock using a black ink pad. Then color the birds. Next fuzzy cut the birds. For a branch, I used a real twig from my garden and adhered it onto the card base using the Dual Tip Glue Pen.

Now let the glue dry thoroughly. Since the branch is quite thick I stacked some 3D Foam Squares White Mix and 3D Foam Squares Micro White to adhere the birds onto the card.

This makes the birds really pop up! Then adhere the sentiment sticker onto a kraft banner which I cut using scissors. Adhere the banner to the card using 3D Foam Squares White Mix.

Wear Your Adhesives on the Outside with Glitter

To add a finishing touch to my CAS Bird card I used a technique called Wear Your Adhesive on the Outside, making your adhesive shine! I adhered some hearts using the E-Z Runner® Hearts Refillable Dispenser onto the card base.

For precise adhering I used tweezers. Then rub some red ultra-fine glitter with your finger over the adhesive hearts. Next, gently tab off any excess glitter. And voilá…your CAS Love Birds card is ready.

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