Warm Cocoa Wishes Cards

Hi, everyone! Winter’s here and it’s getting cold outside. Teri here with a fun way to warm things up by making some cute cards to send warm cocoa wishes to your loved ones.

Warm Cocoa Wishes Cards by Teri Anderson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

These cards also work well for post-holiday cards when you don’t get Christmas cards sent out in time.

Creating Warm Cocoa Wishes Cup

Start by die-cutting two cocoa cups, one from cardstock and one from the 3D Foam Creative Sheet Medium. From the cardstock cup, remove its middle.

Color the cardstock cup frame with markers and place it on the foam cup. Remove the liner from the middle of the cup to add a couple of die cut hearts.

Cover the exposed adhesive in the cup’s middle with white flock. Be sure to fully burnish the flock onto the foam and take off the excess.

Adding Fun Elements

Die-cut a couple of marshmallows from white cardstock and 3D Foam Creative Sheet Medium. Stack to adhere them together before using a pen to add shading to their edges. Die-cut a spoon from white cardstock and add color to it with markers. Set it aside.

Warm Cocoa Wishes Cards by Teri Anderson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Place the marshmallows on the cup and around it. Add the spoon as well. Flip the cup over and add some additional 3D Foam Squares in White wherever there is none.

Assembling the Warm Cocoa Wishes Card 1

Dry-emboss a piece of cardstock panel. Add to a top-folded card. Crafty Power Tape Polybag 81ft is great for adhering embossed paper to cards because you can press it down securely to it.

Warm Cocoa Wishes Cards by Teri Anderson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Add your cocoa cup and a sentiment stamped on a strip of cardstock to your card. Complete your card with a few sequins or gems.

Change It Up With Glitter

You can easily change up your card. Rather than using flock on your cocoa cup, try using glitter instead! Foil is also a great option!

You can also use a much shorter sentiment strip as I did.

Nostalgic Christmas Wreath Card

Hi everyone, Yvonne here with a nostalgic Christmas wreath card. I’m always trying to make my cards a little different to make them unique and I love a nostalgic look. 

Nostalgic Christmas Wreath Card by Yvonne van de Grijp for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

If you are using different materials for your card, a great reliable adhesive is a must. With the wide range of quality products of Scrapbook Adhesives® by 3L adhering is a piece of cake! Wanna join me in creating this nostalgic wreath card? Let’s get started!

Top Card Panel of the Nostalgic Christmas Wreath Card

Start by stamping the Christmas texts onto white cardstock using green ink.

Nostalgic Christmas Wreath Card by Yvonne van de Grijp for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Then trim to a rectangular size. Next use brown ink and an ink blending tool to alter the panel to give it that old, nostalgic look.

Nostalgic Christmas Wreath Card by Yvonne van de Grijp for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Making the Card Base

Adhere the stamped and altered card panel onto a kraft cardstock panel using the E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips Refillable Dispenser. Then adhere onto a cream card base using the E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips Refillable Dispenser for affixing.

Nostalgic Christmas Wreath Card by Yvonne van de Grijp for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Adding the Cardstock Elements

Start by cutting out a door image and put Creative Photo Corners Gold onto the left corners. Then adhere to the card base using the EZ Runner. Next, adhere the nostalgic female image to the card base using Thin 3D Foam Squares White Mix.

Embellishing the Skirt

Start by adding a nostalgic touch to the dress of the lady. To dress her up I used ruffled ribbon which I cut in strips and adhered to the bottom of the dress using Premium Double-Sided Tape 1/4in for stainless adhering. Then make a bow from ribbon and adhere to the dress using Premium Double-Sided Tape 1/4in

Create the Wreath

Next, make a bow from silver chenille thread and wrap it around some red/white baker’s twine. Now knot a cord to “hang” the wreath. Adhere the wreath onto the card using the Dual Tip Glue Pen for adhering. Tip: for extra secure adhering I like to add something heavy like an acrylic block and book on top of the wreath while the glue dries.

Nostalgic Christmas Wreath Card by Yvonne van de Grijp for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

When the wreath is securely affixed, adhere a small red satin bow onto the wreath using Premium Double-Sided Tape 1/4in. For a finishing touch, I also added some red pearls. A clip is used to hold the bakery twine into place. Finally, adhere the sentiment to the card and your nostalgic Christmas wreath card is ready!

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

Vintage-Inspired Holiday Gift Tags

Hi, Connie here with a fun repurposing project using vintage merchant tags. They make great vintage-inspired tags for Christmas gift-giving and home decorations.

Vintage Inspired Holiday Gift Tags by Connie Mercer for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Vintage Inspired Tags Prep

The tags that I used, to create with, are actually 3 ply maintenance request tags. The inside of the grouping would make a great place to stamp a sentiment or a handwritten message.

Vintage Inspired Holiday Gift Tags by Connie Mercer for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Embellish the Surface

Use stamps and stencils to create a fun mixed media background along with the embellishment shapes for the front of the tags. Then I stamped directly on the tags using Archival Jet Black ink. It would be fun to create on both sides, showing the different looks. Once you have the embellishments created and cut out you are ready to design the tags. Distress Oxide inks were used to add color to my images.

Vintage Inspired Holiday Gift Tags by Connie Mercer for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

I selected these products to aid me in adhering the embellishments to the front (and back ) of the tags. I used all 3D Foam products of all sizes. I’ll list them below 🙂 and I might add, they were perfect!!!

Vintage Inspired Holiday Gift Tags by Connie Mercer for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

I used the 3D Foam Squares White Regular for the back of the trees. The 3D Foam Squares Micro White were perfect for the small stars and script sentiment. I used the 3D Foam Squares White Small for the birds and the 3D Foam Strips for the word strips. To complete the tags, twine is added to the tops and each tag is splattered with white acrylic paint.

Glittered Merry Christmas Card

Hi and happy December 1st!  Jamie here with you today and if you haven’t started those Christmas cards, it’s time to get on it! I am sharing this sweet penguin-themed Glittered Merry Christmas Card. Let me show you how to make this sparkle!

Glittered Merry Christmas Card by Jamie Martin for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Glittered Merry Christmas Card Base

To make my card, I cut white cardstock to make a 4″ x 5 1/4″ panel and then a strip of 2″ x 5 1/4″ decorative paper. Use the E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips Refillable Dispenser to attach the strip to the card panel.

Glittered Merry Christmas Card by Jamie Martin for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Wear Your Adhesive on the Outside

Next, I wanted to add a strip of glitter to the top and bottom of the decorative paper, to do this I placed Premium Double-Sided Tape 1/4″ to the top and bottom.

Glittered Merry Christmas Card by Jamie Martin for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Cover the glitter over the Premium Double-Sided Tape 1/4″ and rub it with my finger to secure it before tapping off the excess.

Glittered Merry Christmas Card by Jamie Martin for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Adding the Penguin Family

Stamp the penguin image on watercolor paper with Onyx Black VersaFine Ink and heat emboss with clear embossing powder. Next, color with Clean Color Real Brush Pens and cut out. Add 3D Foam Circles White Mix on the back of the image and place it on the left side of the card for dimension.

Glittered Merry Christmas Card by Jamie Martin for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

A Christmas tree was die-cut from green paper and glued behind the penguins using the Dual Tip Glue Pen. Apply a star from the E-Z Runner Stars to the top of the tree. Stamp the sentiment at the top right of the card and lastly, add three enamel dots along the bottom right side.

Foiled Stars Garland

Hello friends! It’s Judy with you today to share a festive Foiled Stars Garland made with 3D Foam Stars. Stars are a favorite of mine, especially for the holidays. Add red foil and they’re perfect on a small tree!

Foiled Stars Garland by Judy Hayes for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Create the Garland Base

To create the circle garland base, apply three sheets of Adhesive Sheets 4×6-inch to cover the back of a piece of 8.5 x 11-inch Kraft cardstock.

Foiled Stars Garland by Judy Hayes for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Next, cut three different circles sizes (0.75. 1.0, and 1.25-inches in diameter) in the following quantities: 27 small, 13 medium, and 13 large circles to make a garland about 85 inches long.

Foiled Stars Garland by Judy Hayes for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Also, cut the same number of circles from Kraft cardstock without adhesive on its back.

Wear Your Adhesive on the Outside with Stars

Use a sheet of 3D Foam Stars from the 3D Foam Holiday Embellishment Kit with Foil plus a package of 3D Foam Stars.

Foiled Stars Garland by Judy Hayes for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Using all the Kraft circle shapes with adhesive backing, adhere to the following 3D Foam Stars: the smallest stars to the small circles, the medium stars to the medium circles, and the bigger star frames to the largest circles as shown in the image above.

Foiled Stars Garland by Judy Hayes for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Peel the top liners off the stars, place the red foil from the 3D Foam Holiday Embellishment Kit with Foil over the star with the color side UP, press foil firmly to star, and peel the foil away. Repeat this process for the rest.

Adding Star Circles to Garland

Foiled Stars Garland by Judy Hayes for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Lay red pearl cotton cord out on a work surface. I used enough cord to wrap around my tree. Apply the E-Z Runner® Ultra Strong Refillable Dispenser to the center back of a small Kraft circle. Slide it under the cotton cord and lightly press it against the adhesive to secure. Continue with a large circle, another small circle, and a medium circle spacing them about 0.75-inch apart.

Foiled Stars Garland by Judy Hayes for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Peel the adhesive liner from the back of the circle with a small foiled star, align over a small circle already attached to the cord, and press in place to make one complete circle shape. Repeat the same step with the large circle, another small circle, and a medium circle.

Foiled Stars Garland by Judy Hayes for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Repeat the pattern of stars to the desired length of garland to end with a small star circle. Lastly, trim the red pearl cotton cord ends.

Foiled Stars Garland by Judy Hayes for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Add to Christmas tree or hang on a mantle or anywhere for the holidays!

Adorable Snowman Shaped Cards

Hi, crafty friends! Like to make cute cards? Teri here to show you how to make some super cute snowman shaped cards.

Adorable Snowman Shaped Cards by Teri Anderson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

These cards are a fun way to send a little cheer over the winter months to your loved ones and friends. They are easy to make and require just a few paper crafting supplies to make them.

Making the Shaped Card

Start by creating a top-folding A2 card from cardstock. Use a pencil to draw a line on each side and cut a little off each top at an angle. Don’t worry if your lines aren’t exactly the same length or not straight.

Adorable Snowman Shaped Cards by Teri Anderson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Embellishing the Snowman

Create a scarf by cutting a strip of cardstock to go across the card. You’ll also want to cut some small strips of cardstock and add a line of adhesive to them. Take little pieces from the strips and add them to your scarf. You’ll also want to take two more pieces of cardstock and place them under the scarf so they look like they are hanging down. Decorate them with strips of cardstock, if desired, and add a fringe with scissors at the ends.

Adorable Snowman Shaped Cards by Teri Anderson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Place two large strips of 3D Foam Strips Large in White next to each other on a piece of orange cardstock. Freehand cut a triangle for an orange nose. Add two wiggle eyes and the nose to your snowman card.

Adorable Snowman Shaped Cards by Teri Anderson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Add an Adhesive Dots Medium Ultra Thin on each side of the snowman’s head. Take a piece of wire. Make an upside-down “U” with it and place the ends on the adhesive dots. Then cover the adhesive dots with a regular size of the 3D Foam Circle White. Lastly, cover the foam circle with small cardstock circles.

Adorable Snowman Shaped Cards by Teri Anderson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Adding the Finishing Touches

Give your snowman some buttons by adding two regular sizes of the 3D Foam Circle White below the scarf. Then cover with cardstock circles.

Adorable Snowman Shaped Cards by Teri Anderson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Complete your card by using a marker to draw some pink cheeks. Embellish the ear muffs and buttons with a white gel pen.

Adorable Snowman Shaped Cards by Teri Anderson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Change It Up with More Stripes and Flock

It’s easy to change the look of your snowman cards!

Adorable Snowman Shaped Cards by Teri Anderson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Simply add more colors to your snowman’s scarf as I did here. You can also add some flock to the card by covering the buttons’ 3D Foam Circle White with the flock. Glitter would work as well!

Quick and Easy JOY Shaker Pouch Card by Tracy McLennon for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Quick & Easy Shaker Pouch Steps

First I created the simple card front for the card, and using a decorative die, I cut out the section for my Shaker Pouch to fit in the card.

Next, I cut one collector’s card section from the sheet of nine. This will become the Shaker Pouch for the card. I filled the pouch with my chosen sequins mix, then sealed the top edge using Extreme Double-Sided Tape 1/4in. Voila, a super easy Shaker Pouch.

Postage Stamps Collage Card

Hi, Connie here with a fun project using old postage stamps and the Dual Tip Glue Pen. I love that it has the 1/2″ wide brush tip end. Sure came in handy for this collage card project. I used it as a collage medium with a little help from my fingers.

Postage Stamps Collage Card by Connie Mercer for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Collage Card Design

A little prep work goes a long way. First, lay the stamps on a 4″x 5″ card front, just to get an idea of how they would look. Once you determine the layout, use the Dual Tip Glue Pen, (1/2″ brush end), as a collage medium. I used my fingers to help smooth out the glue on the stamps.

Postage Stamps Collage Card by Connie Mercer for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Once the card fronts were complete, matted them on coordinating cardstock.

Postage Stamps Collage Card by Connie Mercer for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

This is the order of how the collage cards were assembled:
1. Adhere the black cardstock mat is to the top fold white card base with Crafty Foam Tape Black 108ft.
2. Next, place the white cardstock mat on the black mat using the E-Z Runner Grand Refillable Dispenser.
3. Then add the postage stamp card front to the white cardstock mat with the Crafty Foam Tape White 108ft.

Postage Stamps Collage Card by Connie Mercer for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

The embellishments are secured using a combination of Crafty Foam Tape White 108ft, E-Z Runner® Grand Refillable Dispenser, and 3D Foam Strips. Wrap the twine towards the bottom of the card to complete. I used scraps from my scrappy box such as pre-stamped images.

Glittered Happy Holidays Card

Hi everyone, Yvonne here with a glittered Happy Holidays card. With the countdown to Christmas and a little more than a month to go, it’s time for some Christmas card inspiration. And what is more fun than adding glitter to a festive card?

Glittered Happy Holidays Card by Yvonne van de Grijp for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

With the Dual Tip Glue Pen, it’s super easy to add that glitter touch. And the 3D Foam Squares Micro White are great for detailed adhering with a 3D effect.  Wanna join me in making my card? Let’s get started!

Happy Holidays Card Panel

Start by tearing a piece of kraft cardstock. Then ink a wood pattern embossing folder on the top inside using dark brown ink. Note: the inked side is to be inking the front side of the card panel.

Glittered Happy Holidays Card by Yvonne van de Grijp for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Next, run the embossing folder through your die-cutting and embossing machine using the sandwich recommended by its manufacturer. Now remove the embossed cardstock and let the ink dry.

Glittered Happy Holidays Card by Yvonne van de Grijp for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Next use a grey/blue ink pad and an ink blending tool to color the card panel softly.

Glittered Happy Holidays Card by Yvonne van de Grijp for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

This creates the look of an old wood plank. Isn’t that a fun effect?

Making the Card Base

Trim the top and bottom sides of the embossed and inked card panel. Then adhere to a grey card panel using the E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips Refillable Dispenser.

Glittered Happy Holidays Card by Yvonne van de Grijp for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

And then adhere to a white card base using the E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips Refillable Dispenser.

Making the glittered Snow Flake

First die-cut a snowflake from white cardstock. Then rub a little glue from the Dual Tip Glue Pen over the edges of the snowflake.

Glittered Happy Holidays Card by Yvonne van de Grijp for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Next, dip the edges into silver glitter and tap off any excess glitter. Now let dry. Adhere the glittered snowflake onto the card base using 3D Foam Squares Micro White.

Glittered Happy Holidays Card by Yvonne van de Grijp for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Since the snowflake is very detailed I cut the 3D Foam Squares Micro White in half so no adhesive will stick out from under the snowflake shape.

Embellishing the card

First, adhere a sentiment sticker onto a banner cut from grey cardstock. Then adhere to the card using 3D Foam Squares White Mix. Next, adhere some sequins onto the card using Adhesive Dots Micro for adhering. For a finishing touch adhere some rhinestones onto the card.

Glittered Happy Holidays Card by Yvonne van de Grijp for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

And voilá, the glittered happy holidays card is ready to be sent!

Wishing you happy holiday crafting!

Snowflake and Striped Christmas Card

Hi, my crafty friends, Jamie here! I have a snowflake and striped Christmas card using 3D Foam Snowflake and Crafty Power Tape for a unique background.  It’s nice making your own background, you can make it whatever color you want it and you don’t need to have a decorative paper that’s the right color for your project.

Snowflake and Striped Christmas Card by Jamie Martin for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

The Snowflake and Striped Christmas Card Stamped Image

First, I stamped the bird from the Chickadee Holiday Set from Stampendous on watercolor paper with Onyx Black VersaFine Ink and emboss it with clear embossing powder.  Then watercolor the image with Zig Clean Color Real Brush Pens.

To make the clouds, use a cloud stencil and apply light blue ink with blender brushes. Stamp the sentiment in black ink. For the snow, I used Icicle Stickles and set aside to dry.

Make the Striped Background

Cut a piece of 2 1/4 x 5 1/2″ white cardstock panel. Place strips of Crafty Power Tape diagonally on the panel. Cut any excess tape off. Remove the liners and cover with red embossing powder. Make sure to press the powder into the adhesive before tapping off the excess. Heat emboss to melt the powder.

Snowflake and Striped Christmas Card by Jamie Martin for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Add the Snowflakes

Place two strips of Crafty Power Tape on the back of the embossed panel. Then adhere it to the center of the card. Add 3D Foam Snowflake on each side of the panel. Remove the liners and cover with Crystal Micro Glitter. Secure the glitter by rubbing it into the shapes. Tap off excess.

Snowflake and Striped Christmas Card by Jamie Martin for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Assemble the Snowflake and Striped Christmas Card

To lift the center panel, place 3D Foam Strips on its back. Stack two layers of Foam Strips in the center so that it is higher than the 3D Foam Snowflake. I used one layer on each side because the tape will rest on the Foam Snowflakes.
