On My Mind Sunflower Card Tutorial

Hello! I’ve had this wonderful Sunflower Wreath die set for a while and finally sat down to create a sunflower card in a square format. To bring it to life, I’ve added dimension and lifted some of the flowers up. Let me show you how I made this card so you can recreate one too!

On My Mind Sunflower Card Tutorial by Margie Higuchi for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Wreath Elements

For the wreath, I die-cut all the sunflowers with yellow cardstock, and their centers with kraft cardstock five times. Then I layered them and secured them with a combination of the Adhesive Dots Mini and Small sizes.

Next, I die-cut the wreath die in white cardstock to make three wreaths. Set these wreath elements to the side and let’s work on coloring the card panel.

With a 5.25-inch white cardstock square, blending Prize Ribbon ink with a medium-size ink blending brush. Next, splash and mist water on the panel to distress. Set aside to dry.

Cut a 5.5-inch yellow cardstock square and create a top-fold 5.75-inch square kraft card base. Mat the inked card panel to the yellow square panel with the E-Z Runner® Ultra Strong. Note: using this adhesive will secure the inked panel flat as it was warped from the water. I popped up the layered panel to the card base by cutting up leftover 3D Foam Creative Sheets.

Wreath Assembly

Stack and adhere the three white wreaths with the Dual Tip Glue Pen.

Secure the sunflowers with a combination of 3D Foam Circles White in Small, and Adhesive Dots Mini and Small.

Sentiment

Stamp and die-cut a sentiment from the Simple Strips – Friendship Stamp & Die Set on kraft cardstock and Blue Ribbon ink. Apply a 3D Foam Strips White on the back and place it on the card front for some pop.

Layered Dimensional Hello Card

Hello crafty friends! Tracy here and today I have a pretty layered dimensional hello card to share. Here are the quick and easy details.

Layered Dimensional Hello Card by Tracy McLennon for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Create Layers for the Dimensional Hello Card Front

Creating layered dimensional pieces is just so simple when you have the right foam adhesives. Using a combination of Thin 3D Foam Squares White Mix and 3D Foam Squares White Mix, creates layered dimensional cards with adding too much thickness for shipping.

Start by cutting a white cardstock 5×7 card base. Cut a piece of patterned paper to 4.75 x 6.75, and adhere to the card base using the E-Z Runner® Grand Refillable Dispenser. Die cut out the decorative piece from white cardstock, then a plain patterned oval and adhere that to the card base, also using the E-Z Runner® Grand Refillable Dispenser.

Layered Dimensional Hello Card by Tracy McLennon for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Die cut two more layers. One from vellum ,and the other from printed patterned paper. Adhere to the layered dimensional card using E-Z Runner® Grand Refillable Dispenser.

Layered Dimensional Hello Card by Tracy McLennon for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Begin adding die cut pieces and dimension using Thin 3D Foam Squares White Mix.

Layered Dimensional Hello Card by Tracy McLennon for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Adding Die Cut Layers

The next layer of die cuts are added to the layered dimensional card using 3D Foam Squares White Mix. Using this minor difference in thickness gives space between layers without adding too much thickness.

Layered Dimensional Hello Card by Tracy McLennon for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Finally I add the flowers in the middle using a combination of Thin 3D Foam Squares White Mix and 3D Foam Squares White Mix. This completes this layered cluster of die cuts on this dimensional card.

Add the butterfly to the corner of the card using Thin 3D Foam Squares White Mix. The final touch to this layered dimensional card are a few pearls around the die cut piece.

Boom and Hello Cute Cat Cards

Hi, everyone, Teri here! Like to make cute cards without a lot of coloring? Check out this fun tutorial I created to show you how to make some cute and colorful cards with big sentiments and only one or two cute critter stamps! In this case, cute cat cards! Don’t have any cat stamps of your own? Use dog, bird, or some other cute critter stamps to make cards like these!

Boom and Hello Cute Cat Cards by Teri Anderson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Setting Up the Cute Cat Card Panels

Start by cutting a panel of cardstock to fit on a card. Apply some strips of patterned paper at the top and bottom. Set a large sentiment stamp on the panel, leaving a spot for a stamped cat (or critter of your choice), so you know exactly where the paper strips should go. Then secure all the strips with the E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips adhesive.

Boom and Hello Cute Cat Cards by Teri Anderson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Stamp the large sentiment on your panel and stamp a secondary sentiment on a strip of cardstock that will fit across the panel. Set the sentiment strip aside.

Boom and Hello Cute Cat Cards by Teri Anderson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Use a ruler to draw a line across the panel. Line up several Creative Photo Corners Kraft to make an interesting border along the line.

Boom and Hello Cute Cat Cards by Teri Anderson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Embellish the Cute Cat Cards

Adhere the sentiment over the top of the photo corner border with 3D Foam Strips. Stamp, die-cut, and color in a cat (and any additional stamped accents you want to add) and place it on the panel with 3D Foam Squares White. Adhere the panel to a card base with the E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips adhesive. Then complete the card by adding a few sequins or gems with Adhesive Dots Micro.

Vintage Floral Frame Card

Hi everyone, Yvonne here with a vintage floral frame card. Adding a dimensional effect makes this vintage style card extra fun. The wide range of Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L products makes it super easy to assemble this card. Wanna join me in creating the card? Let’s do it!

Vintage Floral Frame Card by Yvonne van de Grijp for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Make the Top Card Panel

Start by inking the embossing folder using grey ink. This is to create a depth effect after embossing.

Vintage Floral Frame Card by Yvonne van de Grijp for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Now put a piece of white cardstock between the embossing folder and run through your die-cutting and embossing machine using the sandwich as recommended by its manufacturer. Then take out the embossed paper. Trim the cardstock to the desired size.  Since the card is vintage style, I altered the embossed cardstock with brown ink and an ink blending tool.

Vintage Floral Frame Card by Yvonne van de Grijp for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Layered Card Base

Use the E-Z Runner® Grand Refillable Dispenser to adhere the embossed card panel onto a piece of kraft cardstock and next adhere onto a white card base.

Vintage Floral Frame Card by Yvonne van de Grijp for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Create the Floral Frame

First, cut the two frames out. Then adhere the background frame onto the card base using Thin 3D Foam Squares White Mix. Then adhere the Vintage style photo behind the top frame using 3D Foam Strips.

Vintage Floral Frame Card by Yvonne van de Grijp for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Next, adhere the picture frame onto the card base using Thin 3D Foam Squares White Mix.

Embellish into a Floral Frame

Adhere some rolled-up flowers onto the card using Adhesive Dots Mini. Then adhere some mulberry flowers onto the card using Adhesive Dots.

Finish the card by adhering some butterfly shapes. To pop them up, I used Thin 3D Foam Squares White Mix. Don’t they look great?

Vintage Floral Frame Card by Yvonne van de Grijp for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

And…voilá! Your Vintage Floral Frame card is ready to be sent. I hope you enjoyed this tutorial and wish you happy crafting!

Mixed Media Note Pad Folders

Hi, Connie here with easy Note Pad Folders using the post-it notes as the inside of the folder. Great for the car, teacher gift, or heck, for yourself! I’m also sharing some tips to make your 3D Foam Circles White Mix go even further than you thought. More bang for the buck!

Mixed Media Note Pad Folders by Connie Mercer for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

A few steps before putting this together and sharing the tips. Cut a piece of pattern paper 3 3/4″ X 8″. Score at 3 5/8″ and 4″. Fold and trim off, from the bottom, about 1/8″ to square up the folder. The front pieces are 3″ X 3″ heavy white cardstock and the mat, for the cover, is 3 1/4″ X 3 1/4″.

Covers for the Note Pad Folders

Mixed Media Note Pad Folders by Connie Mercer for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L
  • 1. Tip #1: Keep the release sheet (back liner) of the 3D Foam products to use as a disposable paint pallet.
    2. Create a mixed media background using Distress Oxide inks.
Mixed Media Note Pad Folders by Connie Mercer for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L
  • 1. Tip #2: Use the liner sheet from the 3D Foam Circles White Mix as a stencil.
    2. After the circles were added, using a water brush, they were outlined with a white paint pen and then a black fine tip marker. Stamp images over the mixed media background.

Tip #3: Cut up the negative part of the 3D Foam Circle White Mix sheet to pop up the square and adhere to the pattern paper mat.

Adorable Sorry Card

Do you ever say or do something that you regret? I’m guessing you do and what better way to apologize with an adorable sorry card. It’s sure to put a smile on a person’s face, right? Jamie here with you today with a tutorial on how my card was made.

Adorable Sorry Card by Jamie Martin for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Sorry Card Background

Die-cut a white cardstock with a rectangle die. Stamp the tree stump from the Adorable Otters Set with Onyx Black VersaFine Ink. Then color with Prisma Colored Pencils. Next, stencil the clouds on the top portion of the rectangle with blue Distress Oxide Inks using a Cloud Stencil from Rubbernecker Stamps.

Adorable Sorry Card by Jamie Martin for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Lift a Stamped Element

After the otter has been stamped, colored, and cut out, place 3D Foam Circles White Mix on the back. You want to make sure that you put enough 3D Foam Circles on the back to ensure that the image doesn’t sag.

Adorable Sorry Card by Jamie Martin for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Make a Card Panel

Cover about half of a 4″ x 5 1/4″ white cardstock panel with decorative paper using E-Z Squares®. Next, place a strip of Extreme Double-Sided Tape 1/4″ on top of where the decorative paper and cardstock meet.

Adorable Sorry Card by Jamie Martin for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Remove the red tape liner and sprinkle Maroon Micro Glitter on the tape. Rub the glitter into the tape to secure. Tap off the excess.

Assemble the Sorry Card

Place E-Z Squares® on the back of the otter panel and mount it to a slightly larger brown cardstock panel.

Adorable Sorry Card by Jamie Martin for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Pop up the panel on the card using the 3D Foam Circles in small size.

Adorable Sorry Card by Jamie Martin for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Stamp the sentiment below the otter on the decorative paper with black ink. Place a strip of Extreme Double-Sided Tape 1/8″ below the sentiment and add glitter, this tape is thinner than the one used on the white cardstock.

Rawrsome Dinosaur Birthday Card

Hi, everyone! Do you struggle with making masculine cards? Teri here to show you how I made a masculine birthday card with dinosaurs on it…a FUN + Rawrsome Dinosaur Birthday Card!

Rawrsome Dinosaur Birthday Card by Teri Anderson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Creating the Elements and Making the Card Base

Start by stamping, coloring in, and die-cutting a couple of dinosaur and dino-related images. To give them a birthday look, stamp and die-cut a few party hats too.

Rawrsome Dinosaur Birthday Card by Teri Anderson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Assemble together the party hats with the dinosaur and dino-related images. Embellish the images by adding wiggle eyes to them. If your image doesn’t have a face, use a pen to draw a smile on it!

Rawrsome Dinosaur Birthday Card by Teri Anderson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Adhere two panels of patterned paper to a card base. Stamp a sentiment on a strip of cardstock. Add some hearts (or stars) to the bottom of it. Mount the strip across your card. Start adding your other stamped images to it.

Completing the Card by Adding Some Extra Details

Make some of your images stand out by placing foam squares on the back. I like to use a mixture of square sizes to ensure the entire image is covered and has support. Add your images to the card.

Easy Texture Color Block Layout

Hello crafty friends! Tracy here, and today I have an easy texture color block layout to share. Wondering how to adhere those textured elements to your project? I will share some helpful tips and tricks so follow along!

Easy Texture Color Block Layout by Tracy McLennon for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Textured Color Block Layout Made Easy

First, I created my simple layered background by cutting a piece of white cardstock to 10 x 10-inch. Adhere it to a full sheet of yellow patterned paper using the E-Z Runner® Grand Refillable Dispenser. Next, I cut the burlap paper to 4.5 x 4.5-inch squares. The back of this burlap paper is rough textured and kind of rubbery. Regular adhesives just wouldn’t cut it, so I brought out the E-Z Runner® Ultra Strong Refillable Dispenser and adhered the squares to the white cardstock.

Easy Texture Color Block Layout by Tracy McLennon for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Mat the cropped 4 x 6-inch white cardstock using the E-Z Runner® Grand Refillable Dispenser. Cut a larger mat from pink patterned paper, and add the photo to it using Crafty Foam Tape White 54ft. Adhere the matted photo to the textured color block layout using Crafty Foam Tape White 54ft. Crafty Foam Tape White 54ft. It sticks to this tricky texture beautifully.

Easy Texture Color Block Layout by Tracy McLennon for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Cut a strip of patterned paper to add up the left-hand side of the layout and adhere that to the background using E-Z Runner® Grand Refillable Dispenser. Then I added a few die cut pieces to that strip using Thin 3D Foam Squares Black Mix.

Easy Texture Color Block Layout by Tracy McLennon for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Add die cut pieces to the Easy Textured Layout above and below the matted photo using Thin 3D Foam Squares Black Mix.

Add a few cardstock stickers and chipboard stickers around the matted photo using Adhesive Dots Small, to make sure they stay put on this Easy Textured Layout.

After School Snack Time!

Hi, Connie here with a fun after-school treat for the kids. I’m using pattern paper by Simple Stories and the Crafty Foam Tape 54′ (it is thicker). This will come in handy for this project. Oh, and you might want to get some cookies and milk 🙂

After School Snack Time by Connie Mercer for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

This is fun and it is easy but most of all the kids will love it !! and the cookie!!!

After School Snack Time by Connie Mercer for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

To create the hang tag cut the pattern paper 4 1/4″ W and 8 1/2″ L. Using a scoring tool, score at 2 1/2″ creating a fold for the tag to hand over a milk bottle or water / juice bottle. Punch a large circle in the center of the hang tag, making a way to hang the tag over the neck of the bottle. (I used a scallop punch and then backed the circle opening with yellow paper, so it peeked through).

  • 1. Using the Crafty Foam Tape 54′ to adhere the cookie pocket to the front of the hang tag you will need to add two layers of Crafty Foam Tape 54′. You need room for a cookie :):)
    2. The die cuts were adhered with 3D Foam Squares White Mix and 3D Foam Strips.

Thinking of You Flower Card

Hi, everyone, Yvonne here with a colorful Thinking of You Flower card. Sometimes a card needs just one die-cut shape popped up with 3D Foam Squares Micro White to support every intricate detail. Well, it’s super easy to create when you have the right type of foam adhesive.

Thinking of You Flower Card by Yvonne van de Grijp for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Don’t you love the shadow effect behind the die-cut? I would love to show you how I made the card. Shall we get started?

Inking the Flower Card Panel

Start by adding color to a piece of white cardstock. To color, I used an ink pad and an ink blending tool. Start by adding the bottom color (purple) and the top color (yellow). Then fill in the gap with orange and bright purple. For even blending it is important that you do not use too much ink. Remember that it’s better to add multiple thin layers than just one too thick layer of ink. This prevents stain spots and makes the blending more even. 

Thinking of You Flower Card by Yvonne van de Grijp for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Next, I splattered some water over the cardstock and dabbed it with a piece of cloth to make some subtle stains.

Thinking of You Flower Card by Yvonne van de Grijp for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Tip: for beginner cardmakers, you can also use patterned paper as a background.

Adding the Focal Point

First die-cut the floral design from white cardstock. Then trim the die-cut to the desired size. Next, add 3D Foam Squares Micro White to the back of the die-cut. The tiny foam micro squares are perfect for detailed adhering. For the bottom part, I used Crafty Foam Tape White.

Thinking of You Flower Card by Yvonne van de Grijp for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Now remove the liner from the 3D Micro and Crafty Foam Tape White and adhere it onto the ink-colored cardstock.

The Card Base

Trim the colored cardstock to a size that is slightly larger than the single die-cut you adhered upon. Do not throw away the excess colored cardstock, for you will be using it later. Then adhere upon a piece of beige cardstock using the E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips Refillable Dispenser for adhering. Next, adhere to a white card base again using the E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips Refillable Dispenser.

Embellishing the Flower Card

First, stamp a sentiment onto white cardstock and cut it out to be a banner size. Then adhere upon the leftover piece of ink-colored cardstock and trim to a size slightly larger than the stamped banner. Adhere the sentiment onto the ink-colored banner using the E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips Refillable Dispenser. Next, adhere the banner onto the card using Crafty Foam Tape White. For a finishing touch, I adhered some rhinestones to the card. And…voilá your single die-cut card is ready.

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