Thankful for You Shaker Card

Posted on November 20, 2025 by Ali Skifton

Hi, Ali here today! Today, I’m so excited to share a special Thanksgiving card I created for my husband, Jeff. This Thankful for You Shaker Card is perfect because of the colors, patterns, and cozy autumn vibes. I tried a few new-to-me products, 3D Foam Circles White Mix and Metallic Transfer Foil Sheets Holographic Colors. Once I started using them, I couldn’t stop! They added so much texture, shimmer, and dimension to my card that I’m already dreaming up ways to use them again for Christmas cards and winter projects.

Building the Background

Choose two patterned papers from the 6×6 Farmhouse paper pad. I love how well these papers coordinate! Cut each sheet on the diagonal and pieced together to form the background for my card front. This simple cut added visual interest and a bit of rustic charm. Adhere with the E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips Dispenser.

Layering the Focal Point

Layer a scalloped circle with a slightly smaller circle to frame the focal point to the card’s center. Place a fun and an interactive element, Doodle-Pop pumpkin shaker, to the layered circle. Love how the shaker adds a little movement and sparkle! Because it’s a heavier embellishment, I used extra adhesive to make sure it stayed firmly attached.

Adding Dimension and Shine

Let’s add the details…because it’s all in the details, right? Some of the cute leaves, acorn and floral pieces were randomly placed around the circle with a combination of the E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips Dispenser and 3D Foam Squares White Mix for depth and texture.

Now, the real fun began…Wear Your Adhesive on the Outside technique! I centered some of the 3D on the floral accents. Remove one of the top liners. Cut a smaller piece of fine gold foil from the Metallic Transfer Foil Sheets Holographic Colors pack and with the color side facing you, rub the foil color into the foam circle. Peel off to reveal the color. Repeat the steps with the other foam circles. It was unbelievably easy!

The gold really makes the flowers pop! It’s such a simple technique, but it brings an elegant shimmer to the design that catches the light beautifully.

Final Touches and Thoughts

After everything was in place, I stepped back and couldn’t help but smile. The combination of warm colors, layered textures, and metallic shine perfectly captured the cozy spirit of Thanksgiving.

Creating this card reminded me why I love handmade crafts so much—they’re not just paper and glue, but tiny pieces of joy and gratitude we can share with the people we love.

I hope this Thankful for You Shaker Card inspires you to try out this Wear Your Adhesive on the Outside technique with 3D Foam shapes and Metallic Transfer Foil Sheets for your own seasonal creations. Trust me, once you start experimenting, the possibilities are endless—from Christmas cards to scrapbook layouts to gift tags!

Wishing you all a very Happy Thanksgiving filled with warmth, creativity, and love.

Warm hugs,
Ali 💛

Layered Thanksgiving Tag Card

Posted on November 17, 2025 by Yvonne van de Grijp

Hi everyone, Yvonne here with some inspiration for Thanksgiving cardmaking. This Layered Thanksgiving Tag Card is all about adding interest to create a beautiful dimensional card.

Layered Thanksgiving Tag Card by Yvonne van de Grijp for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

The great thing is that it’s easy to make and beginner-friendly. Let’s get started!

Layered Thanksgiving Card Base

Start by trimming green patterned cardstock to a rectangular size and mat on a brown panel. Next, secure the layered panel to a white card base. I used the the E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips Refillable Dispenser to adhere all the layers!

Create a Tag Shape

Cut a large tag from patterned paper and punch a hole towards the top of the tag. Next, thread an orange ribbon through the punched opening. For dimension, add several regular size squares from the 3D Foam Squares White Mix pack on the back of the tag and place it diagonally on the card front.

Die-cut a scalloped circle from patterned paper and distress the edges by inking with brown ink and an ink blending tool. Center the inked circle to the tag right below the line using several squares from the 3D Foam Squares White Mix.

Adding Elements

For the focal point, I centered the doodle-pop sticker on the scalloped circle. The sentiment was from the cardstock ephemera pack and I used the smaller squares from the 3D Foam Squares White Mix pack to place it under the circle.

Voilá! Your Layered Thanksgiving Tag Card is ready…ten days till the big turkey day! In the meantime, wishing you happy crafting!

Cruisin’ Birthday Card

Posted on November 15, 2025 by Leslie Turner

Hey everybody, happy weekend! Don’t you just love having extra birthday cards in your stash? It seems I make more birthday cards than any other kinds of cards, and masculine cards are a bonus! Leslie here, sharing a cruisin’ birthday card that would be fun to mass produce with different manly background papers. This card features several of my absolute favorite Scrapbook Adhesives products!

Cruisin' Birthday Card by Leslie Turner for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Assembling The Focal Element

I created the focal element first. Adhesive Sheets 4 x 6in. were applied to the back of the smaller gray circle and the gold emblem piece. Next, I used E-Z Runner® Grand Permanent Strips Refillable Dispenser to assemble the remaining flat elements. Finally, I used Thin 3D Foam Squares White Mix to adhere the needle base, first portion of the sentiment, and the bottom of the emblem.

Putting It All Together

Once again, I reached for the E-Z Runner® Grand Permanent Strips Refillable Dispenser to adhere the patterned paper to the card base. Also used it to adhere the focal element (without any additional embellishments), and this completed front of this cruisin’ birthday card.

Finishing The Inside

And yes, I’m one of those nerdy crafters who finishes the insides of my cards. I generally like to incorporate one or more of the patterned papers used on the front. Occasionally I will leave the inside blank to customize it for the person receiving it, but this card needed a cruisin’ birthday card sentiment. The E-Z Runner® Grand Permanent Strips Refillable Dispenser was used to adhere the layers on the inside. This is unquestionably my go-to adhesive for all of my crafting!

Thanks so much for visiting – we’ll see you next time!

Floral Thank You Card

Posted on November 12, 2025 by Judy Hayes

Hi, Judy here today! For this pretty Floral Thank You Card, I used watercolors in fall colors to paint the flowers. I like to add a little dimension to cards so I’ve used 3D Foam Strips Large White to attach the flowers to the panel. For the cardstock, I used the 3D Foam Creative Sheets Small White for greeting words. This card goes together quite quickly once the watercolor flowers panel was finished.

Floral Thank You Card by Judy Hayes for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Create the Flowers Focal Point

Cut a piece of Distress watercolor paper slightly larger than floral stamp, 4.25 x 5.5 inches. Use a stamp positioning tool to stamp flowers onto smooth side of watercolor paper with Morning Mist ink. Leave stamp in stamping tool to use again later.

Use watercolors to paint flowers. Place painted piece back in stamping tool, ink stamp with Fallen Leaves ink and stamp. Use coordinating die and die cutting machine to die-cut flowers.

Floral Card Layers

Cut white cardstock 8.5 x 6.5 inches, score and fold to form 4.25 x 6.5 inch card. From light blue cardstock, cut 3.375 x 4.25 inch rectangle and use a 0.5 inch corner rounder to round each corner. Cut 3.5 x 4.375 inch rectangle from dark brown cardstock and round each corner with corner rounder.

Apply the E-Z Runner® Petite Permanent Dots Refillable Dispenser to the back of the light blue piece and secure it to the dark brown piece. Then adhere the layered panel to the card front about 1.25 inches from the top.

Secure the Flowers

Cut pieces of 3D Foam Strips Large White to fit the back of the floral die-cut shape. Peel off the top liners and center it to the card front.

Create the Greetings

On a piece of white cardstock, stamp the sentiment words using Fallen Leaves ink and trim the excess cardstock. Place 3D Foam Creative Sheets Small White on the back of the stamped cardstock. Trim off any excess foam sheet.

Die-cut it with the coordinating word dies. Designer’s Tip: It’s best to make at least two passes with die cutting machine to ensure a clean cut. Peel liners from the die-cut words and attach them on the card as shown.

Layered Fur Baby Layout

Posted on November 9, 2025 by Tracy McLennon

Hello scrappy friends! Tracy here and today I wanted to share this fun Layered Fur Baby Layout I created featuring my handsome dog Zeus. Here are all of the details on how I created this layered pet layout.

Layered Fur Baby Layout by Tracy McLennon for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Foundation of the Fur Baby Layout

Black cardstock is the background of this layout. Cut a piece of the blue bone patterned paper, and slightly smaller piece of green patterned paper that are 11″ long. Adhere these to the top and bottom of the black cardstock background using the E-Z Runner® Grand Permanent Strips Refillable Dispenser. Cut a strip of yellow patterned paper and adhere in between the other pieces, again using the E-Z Runner® Grand Permanent Strips Refillable Dispenser.

Mat the cropped 4×6 photo in white cardstock and attach using Creative Photo Corners Black. Cut another white cardstock mat a little larger. Adhere this layer using Crafty Foam Tape Black.

Cut a strip of red patterned paper that is 3″ wide and flagged at the bottom. Adhere that to the right hand side of the layered pet layout using E-Z Runner® Grand Permanent Strips Refillable Dispenser.

Next step is to add the layout title. I added these 2 die cut pieces using Thin 3D Foam Squares White Mix. I also added a tag piece to the top of the red patterned paper strip using Thin 3D Foam Squares White Mix. Adhere the matted photo to the layout using Crafty Foam Tape Black.

Add die cut pieces and tags along the bottom green patterned paper section using Thin 3D Foam Squares White Mix. This creates a sweet border for this layered pet layout. Add the sticker and shaker embellishments around the layout title.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Life is Good (Tweet) Card

Posted on November 8, 2025 by Teri Anderson

Hi, friends! Got a pile of paper scraps? Teri here to show you a super cute Life is Good (Tweet) Card that uses paper scraps and 3D Foam Frames together!

Life is Good (Tweet) Card by Teri Anderson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Life is Good (Tweet) Card Design with Paper Scraps

Start by taking a piece of plain cardstock and randomly adhering paper scraps to it with the E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips Refillable Dispenser. Make sure you completely cover the back of your scraps with adhesive before placing them down, just to make sure nothing will come off when you get to the next step. Designer’s Tip: Use a bone folder to burnish and secure your papers down.

Wear Your Adhesive on the Outside with 3D Foam Frames

Take one of the large frames and a smaller frame from the 3D Foam Frames and place them on your scrap paper. Use your scissors to trim off the excess from the frames.

Choose a different foil color for each frame. I used the gold and bronze foil sheets from the Metallic Transfer Foil Sheets Nature Colors. Remove the top liner and place the foil (color side facing you) over the exposed adhesive. Rub the foil to transfer the color. Peel to remove and reveal the shine! Reapply foil in missed areas. Repeat foiling step with another foil color to the other frame.

Add the Frames to the Card Panel

Adhere patterned paper onto a cardstock panel and add border strips of patterned paper and cardstock to the top and bottom of the card with the E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips Refillable Dispenser.

Add your foiled frames to the panel with a combination of the E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips Refillable Dispenser (large frame) and 3D Foam Strips (small frame). Using the foam strips, you can layer the smaller frame together with the larger. Designer’s Tip: I recommend cutting up the strips and using some of them together so your frame is more stable. Decorate your frames with stickers or die-cuts.

Add a Sentiment

Add a sentiment…I used stickers but you could easily create a sentiment by taking a strip of cardstock and handwriting or stamping a phrase.

Foiling on the Life is Good (Tweet) Card Front

Finish by randomly placing Adhesive Dots Micro and foil with Metallic Transfer Foil Sheets in Nature Colors on the card front with the same foiling sets. Designer’s Tip: Rub the foil onto each dot until it easily lifts up off the dot. If it does not lift up easily, just keep rubbing until it does.

I hope you enjoyed today’s tutorial. Let me know if you decide to make a card inspired by it or try any of the techniques shared!

Happy Creating!

Holiday Cheer Shaker Card with the Coffee Lover's by Jennifer Ingle for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Holiday Cheer Shaker Card Tutorial

Hi, Jingle here today and I have a super fun holiday card to share with you. We are shaking up the holidays with this clever design using some amazing dies from Trinity Stamps and our favorite adhesives from Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L. Are you ready for some adorable penguins?

Let’s begin! First, die cut the coffee cup shape from the center of your patterned paper panel. You will need a second panel to go behind it later on in the process, so go ahead and cut that now and set it aside.

Next, adhere a sheet of acetate on the back side of the die cut sheet using the E-Z Runner® Permanent Fine Adhesive Dispenser. This is my favorite adhesive for acetate!

Flip over that panel and color your penguins in holiday inspired colors.

Building your shaker

Once you have colored your panel and the acetate is in place, we can begin to assemble the shaker. Adhere strips of Crafty Foam Tape in a tight formation around your coffee cup on the back side, as shown.

Next, you can add your shaker bits (I chose some tree sequins and Christmas pudding clay bits) on the acetate. Adhere the second patterned paper panel to enclose the shaker bits. Another method to do this is to place them in the middle of the panel you cut earlier and then adhere the acetate panel over that, providing a bit more visibility for alignment.

Finishing the Coffee Cup

Now that the shaker is assembled, we can complete the coffee cup using stamps, dies, and stencils.

Color two scraps of white cardstock with the markers you used to color your penguin panel. Die cut the circle from one and the star from the other. Die cut the small cup hole plug with the same color you chose for the star.

Cut the lid and use the stencil to add the shading to give it a truly realistic look. I use the E-Z Dots® Repositionable Dispenser to hold my piece in place on my glass mat while I am ink blending. This is a handy trick when working with smaller pieces.

Adhere the lid at the top of the cup and add the circle and star over the acetate portion. I like to use the E-Z Runner® Permanent Fine Adhesive Dispenser for this because it sticks really well to the acetate. I used Crafty Foam Tape, the thinner version, to adhere the lid to add some dimension.

Finishing Touches

To complete the card, stamp the sentiment on a strip of white cardstock, trim and adhere. Add the little cup hole stopper to the top of the cup. Adhere the completed shaker to a black panel, and then to a card base using Crafty Power Tape.

And then you have your completed card! Well done! Now you can shake the day away!

Thanks for stopping by today. I hope you shake things up soon. I can’t wait to see what you create!

Embossed and Inked Fall Card

Posted on November 4, 2025 by Yvonne van de Grijp

Hi everyone, Yvonne here. Leaves are coloring and falling…Inspired by that thought, I made my Embossed and Inked Fall Card. Although perfect for Fall, simply add a sentiment and make it into a Thanksgiving card.

Embossed and Inked Fall Card by Yvonne van de Grijp for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Come on and join me creating the card!

Create the Embossed Top Card Panel

First emboss the Kraft cardstock with a beautiful leaf embossing folder. To highlight the embossed surface, I used a dark brown ink pad with an ink blending tool to color the raised areas. Next, I used a soft pink chalk ink and gently rubbed over the embossed parts to give more dimensional effect.

Trim the embossed and inked cardstock into a card panel size.

Card Base

First adhere a piece of purple velvet ribbon around the embossed panel using the E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips Refillable Dispenser.

Using the same tape runner, mat the embossed piece on a green cardstock panel and then place the layered panel on a white card base.

Embellish the Embossed and Inked Fall Card Front

To embellish the card, I used fabric leaves and fussy cut images. Adhere the leaves onto the card using Adhesive Dots Large.

Then adhere the fussy cut images using the same adhesive dots. The yellow pumpkin was adhered using Thin 3D Foam Squares Black Mix to add a subtle lift.

And voilá, the Embossed and Inked Fall Card is ready! I hope you enjoyed this tutorial and wish you happy Fall and/or Thanksgiving crafting!

Loaded Boutique Box

Posted on November 1, 2025 by Margie Higuchi

Create a unique and fun gift for a bookworm friend or change out the papers for any occasion! This Loaded Boutique Box is perfect for a sick friend too. So many ideas! Hi, Margie here today! Let me show you how I created this thoughtful gift!

Loaded Boutique Box by Margie Higuchi for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Boutique Box Cover

For the base, cut 9.50 x 5.50-inch white cardstock x 2 pieces. With the long side up (9.50-inch), score at 0.50-inch and 5-inch. On the short side up, score at 0.50-inch…this side will be the bottom edge of the cover.

Adhere the ends. Do not butt the edges together. Leave about an 1/8-inch gap before adhering together with the E-Z Runner® Ultra Strong Refillable Dispenser. Adhere three of the inside bottom tabs, leave the bottom tab without the side tab as is–it will be adhered later. Leave this piece flat to embellish.

The lid is cut to a 5.5 x 5.5-inch square white cardstock and score at 0.50-inch on all four sides. Cut and miter all four corners.

Box Patterned Panels

For the side panels, cut 4.50 x 4.75-inch x 5 pieces. Cut one of the panels diagonally – these pieces will be pockets for two sides. The lid panel is cut to 4.50 x 4.50-inches.

Lid Assembly

Center the patterned panel on top of the lid with the E-Z Runner® Ultra Strong Refillable Dispenser. Die-cut the center with an oval shape die. Set aside

Embellish Side Panels and Pockets

Center the patterned panel on each side of the cover using the E-Z Runner® Ultra Strong Refillable Dispenser. The second panel from the side tab panel will be your front

On the left and right sides of the front, you will add the pockets (the diagonal cut pieces). First, foil the edges of the pockets. Place a strip of Crafty Power Tape Polybag 81ft. on the edges, remove the top liner and foil. Choose your foil color from the Metallic Transfer Foil Sheets Variety Colors pack, cut a piece and place the foil (color side facing you) over the exposed adhesive. Rub to transfer the color to the edge. Reapply foil in missed areas. Repeat the foiling steps to the other pocket

Add 3D Foam Strips to the two sides of the pocket. Designer’s Note: leaving the top liner on, dust the sides with the anti-static powder to alleviate the stickiness. Remove the liners and place each pocket on the lower corner of the patterned panels.

Pocket with Tag Bookmark

Cut two tag shapes out of patterned paper. Score one 0.75-inch from the top to create a hinge, apply the E-Z Runner® Ultra Strong Refillable Dispenser above the score line, and place the two tags together to make one tag shape. Emboss and cut a Floral for You Small Tag in white cardstock and attach to the tag front with the E-Z Runner® Ultra Strong Refillable Dispenser. Add a small 3D Foam Circles White Mix in tag opening. Thread ribbon through the patterned tag opening.

Pocket with Foiled Heart Detail

Add a Large Heart from the 3D Foam Hearts on the other pocket. Choose your two contrasting foil colors from the Metallic Transfer Foil Sheets Variety Colors. Crumple up one of the foil colors to create wrinkles. Flatten it out, place it over the exposed adhesive (color side facing you) and rub to transfer the design to the foam heart. The white wrinkles are exposed adhesive so take a piece of contrasting color (no need to crumple it)and apply it over the heart. The result is beautiful.

Embellish the Back Panel

Emboss and cut a Floral for You Large Tag in white cardstock. Pop it on the back panel using several 3D Foam Circles White Mix.

Decorate the Front Panel

Emboss and cut a Floral for You Medium Tag and its solid shape in white cardstock. Repeat the hinge step as in the tag bookmark (same score measurement at 0.75-inch) to create a shaped card. Cut a card hanger by cutting a 4.25 x 0.50-inch strip of patterned paper and add it about 1.50-inch from the top with a Large Circle from the 3D Foam Circles White Mix on each side. Designer’s Tip: Use the shaped card as a guide for placement. Then add one Small 3D Foam Circles White Mix on each side and foil them as accents.

Assemble the Boutique Box Cover

First, secure the lid (make sure the oval opening is facing east-west) with the front panel using the E-Z Runner® Ultra Strong Refillable Dispenser. Next, adhere the rest of the tabs. Then adhere the cover ends together, and lastly, secure the bottom tab. Designer’s Tip: Apply adhesive on all the tabs first before assembling. Use your crease tool to burnish the adhesives for extra security.

Tuck your tag bookmark, shaped card into its place and you’re ready to use!

Give this Loaded Boutique Box a try and give it away if you can!

Let’s Hang Out Spider Card

Posted on October 29, 2025 by Jennifer Ingle

Hi folks, it’s Jingle here today and I am excited to share this super fun Let’s Hang Out Spider Card with a little spook and a little sparkle! This card is not difficult to create and it has just enough of those extra touches to make it special.

Let's Hang Out Spider Card by Jennifer Ingle for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Spider Card Prep

For the focal point, I stamped the spider shape on yellow-green cardstock with black ink. Then die-cut it with its coordinating die. Set aside to work on the spider web.

Create the Card Panel

First, cut a 4 x 5.25″ black cardstock panel as the base for the design. For the web string, place a single 3D Foam Strip from the top to where you want your spider. Trim off any excess. Remove the top liner and cover the strip with glitter. Press to secure and tap off the excess. Makes it really sparkle against the black!

Wear Your Adhesive on the Outside with Adhesive Sheets

To add a bit of sparkle to the spider, apply a piece of Adhesive Sheets 4 x 6in. on the back of the yellow-green cardstock and die-cut the heart that matches the spider’s back. Peel the liner off and dip the heart into the glitter. Rub to secure and tap off the excess. Adhere it to the spider with Thin 3D Foam Squares White Mix.

Then adhere the spider to the panel with 3D Foam Squares White Mix. The black squares would also work well for this project.

Finish It Out

Stamp and die cut the sentiment and adhere with a 3D Foam Strip. Use the E-Z Runner® Grand Permanent Dots Refillable Dispenser to mat the black panel to a green layer (cut it just an 1/8th of an inch larger on all sides). Finally, use Crafty Power Tape to place the layered panel to the card base.

Thanks for stopping by! I hope you have enjoyed our bit of spook and sparkle today! Happy Crafting!
