Assembling the Step Card

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

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.

CAS Love Birds Card

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.

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

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.

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

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.

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

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.

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

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.

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

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.

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

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!

You are Fabulous Friendship Card by Jamie Martin for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Embellishing the Card Panel

Stamp the sentiment on decorative paper with black ink and using a circle die, cut out the image. Cut the circle in half leaving room to place a strip of Extreme Double-Sided Tape 1/8″ and attach this underneath the flower panel on the right side so that you can see the words. Now layer this to a slightly larger black panel.

Bright Flowers Birthday Card

Hello crafty friends! Today, I’m thinking bright, sunny and warmer weather with this Bright Flowers Birthday Card. I used flowers and leaves that I watercolor painted. Stamped or die cut flowers could easily be used instead. I like to make a bunch of these to have on hand for a quick card. You can find lots of directions online for ways to make these. I learned from a class I took from Tiffany Sharpe and then added my own style.

Bright Flowers Birthday Card by Judy Hayes for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Start with a Sentiment

Rub an anti-static duster over a piece of black cardstock for the sentiment. Then stamp verse with Versafine Onyx Black ink, cover with white embossing powder, remove excess, and emboss with a heat tool. Trim the sentiment into a strip.

Designer Tip: I use Versafine ink on black cardstock because it stamps very fine details well. But any embossing ink pad can be used.

Gather the Bright Flowers

Bright Flowers Birthday Card by Judy Hayes for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Stamp flower and leaf images. Make the flowers bright with watercolor, along with coloring the two leaves. Curl flower petals and leaves for dimension.

The Card Base + Panel

Cut a piece of white cardstock to 8.5 x 6.25 inches and fold to half to form a top fold 4.25 x 6.25-inch card. For the card panel, cut a piece of 4 x 6-inch white cardstock. Then emboss it with a Quilted pattern embossing folder. Trim the panel as needed to fit the card front.

Bright Flowers Birthday Card by Judy Hayes for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Place the panel face down on scoring board. Score .125 inch from each edge to create a finished border.

Bright Flowers Birthday Card by Judy Hayes for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Apply adhesive with E-Z Runner® Ultra Strong Refillable Dispenser along back edges of the embossed panel. Fasten to the card front.

Pop Up the Bright Flowers + Leaves

Bright Flowers Birthday Card by Judy Hayes for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Using a combination of Thin 3D Foam Squares White Mix and 3D Foam Squares White Mix, you create a varying height to the elements for fun dimension and interest.

Here’s how I used them. Place a small Thin 3D Foam Squares White on the center back of each flower. Next, I added a small 3D Foam Squares White to the back of the flower petals. For the leaves, place large 3D Foam Squares White on the back of the leaves. Apply a small amount of E-Z Runner® Ultra Strong Refillable Dispenser to the leaf stems and tips.

Flowers + Leaves Arrangement

Arrange flowers, leaves, and the sentiment strip to the card panel as shown or desired. The following steps are how I adhered all the elements down…maybe it might help you.

Hold a flower in place with your finger, lift the flower slightly to remove liner from the small Thin 3D Foam Squares White on the center of the flower, and press it to secure it in place. Repeat for all flowers.

Next, lift flower petals, remove liners from the small 3D Foam Squares White and press to adhere in place. Repeat to secure all flower petals. More 3D Foam Squares can be added as desired.

Hold a leaf in place, lift slightly to remove liner and press in place. Repeat for other leaf.

Add the Sentiment

Bright Flowers Birthday Card by Judy Hayes for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Cut a large 3D Foam Squares White Mix in half and apply on the back of the sentiment strip. Peel the liners off and fasten the sentiment to the card.

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.

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

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.

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

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.

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

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.

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

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.

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

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

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.

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

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.
